From rolled-down wooly tweed tones all the way to riff-worthy growl and grit, the Warm Audio Warm Bender delivers the ultimate Tone Bender-style fuzz experience in one pedal. The Warm Audio Warm Bender features three dedicated, selectable circuits that accurately deliver two of the most iconic Germanium Tone Bender fuzz tones plus a bonus, modern silicon circuit. Many legendary guitar tracks by artists like Jimmy Page, Jeff Beck, Pete Townshend, and more were crafted using the two most popular versions of the iconic British Bender fuzz sound. The debate rages over which Bender fuzz tone is most legendary, but why choose one when you can have both on your board?

Der legendäre STEREO CHORUS FLANGER war das erste Produkt von TC Electronic. Überhaupt! Unser Gründer, der auch Musiker ist, ärgerte sich in den 70er Jahren über die Qualität der verfügbaren Effektpedale - sie waren einfach zu laut. Also machte er sich als Ingenieur daran, ein Pedal zu entwickeln, das seinen Erwartungen und hohen Ansprüchen gerecht werden würde. So wurde 1976 das SCF geboren, und der Rest ist Geschichte, wie man so schön sagt. Aber hey! Niemand hat gesagt, dass die Geschichte zu Ende ist. Im Gegenteil, wir schreiben diese Geschichte weiter. Tatsächlich hat sich der Kreis geschlossen und wir treten in eine neue Ära der SCF-Geschichten ein. Darf ich vorstellen: SCF GOLD - ein legendäres Pedal! 

The legendary STEREO CHORUS FLANGER was the first TC Electronic product. Ever! Our founder, who is also a musician, was annoyed with the quality of effect pedals available back in the 70s – they were just so noisy. So, being an engineer, he set out to design a pedal that would live up to his expectations and high standards. That was how the SCF was born all the way back in 1976, and the rest is history as they say. But hey! No one said the story was over. On the contrary, we’re adding to that history. In fact, it has come full circle and we’re really entering a new era of the SCF tales. Please meet SCF GOLD – a legendary pedal to be!

Die magische Kombination aus Tremolo und Reverb ist das früheste Beispiel für eine perfekte Verbindung von Gitarreneffekten. Erstmals in legendären Verstärkern der 1960er Jahre eingesetzt, hat dieses harmonische Zusammenspiel unzählige Aufnahmen und Live-Performances geprägt – von frühem Surfrock, swampigem Bayou-Blues, Spaghetti-Western und Film-noir-Soundtracks bis hin zu modernem Indie-Rock. Auch heute entdecken Gitarrist:innen die inspirierende Kraft dieses Traumpaars immer wieder neu.

Flint ist ein Studio-Qualitäts-Effektpedal, das genau diese klassische Kombination liefert. Wir haben unsere Lieblings-Tremolo- und Reverb-Schaltungen aus der Vergangenheit intensiv analysiert, ihre klanglichen Feinheiten untersucht und sie in unseren aufwendig entwickelten Algorithmen detailgetreu nachgebildet. Flint ist im Grunde zwei Pedale in einem – Tremolo auf der einen, Reverb auf der anderen Seite.

The magical combination of tremolo and reverb is the earliest example of a perfect guitar effects marriage. First pioneered within historic amplifiers of the 1960s, this harmonious coexistence has made its way onto countless records and performances — from early surf, swampy bayou blues, spaghetti westerns and film noir soundtracks, to modern day indie rock. As music moves forward, guitarists continue rediscovering the inspiration provided by this perfect pair.

Flint is a studio-class effects pedal that delivers this classic combination. We carefully studied our favorite classic tremolo and reverb circuits, examined the sonic complexities and faithfully accounted for every detail in our hand-crafted algorithms. Flint is essentially two pedals in one, with tremolo on one half and reverb on the other.

Als wir uns entschieden, ein Stereo-Delay-Effektpedal in Studioqualität zu entwickeln, wussten wir, dass wir weit über das bisher Erreichte hinausgehen mussten – in Sachen Klangqualität, klanglicher Flexibilität, Hardware-Design und Verarbeitungsleistung. Wir verbrachten Monate in den Sounddesign-Laboren von Strymon und träumten von den geräumigsten, üppigsten, kreativsten und anpassbarsten Delay-Effekten, die man je gehört hat. Es war eine monumentale Aufgabe – ein unermüdliches Studium von Delays und ihren Nuancen und ein kontinuierliches Streben nach innovativen und musikalisch inspirierenden Klängen. Durch die Verwendung eines unglaublich leistungsstarken SHARC DSP wird jedes bisschen Verarbeitungsleistung genutzt.

TimeLine bietet Ihnen zwölf einzigartige Delay-Maschinen, jede mit umfassender Kontrolle über Klangcharakter und -gefühl. Gehen Sie von knackigen und klaren digitalen Delays in Studioqualität bis hin zu den gesättigten und schwankenden Klängen von Band-Delay-Maschinen. Erhalten Sie warme und unscharfe Wiederholungen im analogen Stil bis hin zu schimmernden, funkelnden und kristallinen Eis-Delays.

Optimieren Sie nach Herzenslust und speichern Sie bis zu 200 Voreinstellungen Ihrer Lieblingssounds. Krönen Sie das Ganze mit einer vollständigen MIDI-Implementierung und einem routingfähigen 30-Sekunden-Stereo-Looper und schon sind Sie auf dem Weg zum Delay-Glück.

When we decided to create a studio-class stereo delay effects pedal, we knew we must go well beyond what has been done in the past—in sound quality, sonic flexibility, hardware design, and processing power. We spent months locked up in the Strymon sound design labs dreaming up the most spacious, lush, creative, and tweakable delay effects ever heard. It was a monumental task—a relentless study of delays and their nuances, and a continuous pursuit of innovative and musically inspirational sounds. Utilizing a ridiculously powerful SHARC DSP, every drop of processing power is harnessed.

TimeLine provides you with twelve unique delay machines, each with extensive control over sonic character and feel. Go from crisp and clear, studio-quality digital delays all the way to the saturated and fluctuating sounds of tape delay machines. Get warm and fuzzy analog style repeats all the way to shimmery, sparkling, and crystalline ice delays.

Tweak to your hearts content and save up to 200 presets of your favorite sounds. Top it all off with full MIDI implementation and a routable, 30-second stereo looper and you’re on your way to delay bliss.

Inspired by a little known fuzz box called the "Fuzzy Nuts" (no we're not making that up) the Golden Fleece is a do it all dirt box that perfectly blends Fuzz, Distortion, and Overdrive into one little golden box of fun.
The single more knob only controls the output of the circuit so it's up to your fingers and guitars controls to shape the gain level and voice. With everything dimed it's a powerful blooming fuzz sound that sounds great hitting a pushed amplifier.
Internally the Golden Fleece is a different type of one knob fuzz. The pedal doesn't rely on a pair of transistors for fuzz instead utilizing a very special silicon and germanium diode pair. Zach has chosen a very special NOS Germanium diode that gives the Golden Fleece it's unique and versatile fuzz voice.

Plug into BigSky and instantly lift your sound into the stratosphere. The world below you fades into the distance, and you’re elevated into a glow of lush, glorious, radiant reverbs.

To create a reverb experience as natural, beautiful, and immersive as BigSky required tremendous feats of sound engineering and artistic imagination. Using the fundamentals of acoustical science as our beacon, we carefully studied and scientifically analyzed reverb technology from the past fifty years. We faithfully captured the essence of these classic sounds, and forged ahead to dream up our vision of reverbs from the future.

We all know about tape echoes, the first delay technology providing organic and slightly distorted repeats.
This particular tone is due to two elements: the magnetic tape and all the imperfections it implies, but also the internal preamp.
Many musicians, such as Eric Johnson, have used their tape echoes in a different way, using the preamp alone, without the echo, as a dirty boost
to overload their amps and make them saturate while bringing a unique character.

The Tape Preamp was inspired by the JFET preamp circuit of a popular tape echo from the 70’s, known for its unique delay and warm preamp.
Of course, we couldn’t stop there, and we redesigned the circuit in our own way to offer a whole new range of tones,
while keeping the original character of the effect. All of this without the need for a real tape echo.

What do the tones of renowned guitarist such as Page, EVH and Johnson have in common? They all used the legendary echo machine EP-3 as a pre-amp. We've captured that magic in a new Xotic Effects pedal, the EP Booster. We've used the highest quality parts available with a discrete FET design and low impedance output, the EP Booster provides up to +20dB of unadulterated boost with multi-dimensional, shimmering highs and lows, and no ear fatigue. The internal DIP switches let you choose the boost frequencies, and EQ settings. A simple pure boost that pays reverence to the magical EP-3 and captures the celebrated tones of the world's most famous players. The EP-Booster,great tone starts here !

The Argonaut is a no frills pedal offers a clean-ish octave up sound. Using it alone offers you a gnarly, ring mod-esque sound that is pretty funky. The fun begins when you combine it with your favorite overdrive or fuzz pedals. Once combined all the iconic octave tones we know and love begin to jump out of your signal. It’s very touch responsive, weird, and fun all rolled into a small little package. The Argonaut uses a pair of Hand matched NOS Germanium Diodes, this gives the most prevalent octave up effect that is present all over your guitar neck. Unlike traditional octave pedals the octave effect can be heard up and down the guitar neck, so get ready to get weird once you add this bad boy to your setup.

The JP95 John Petrucci Signature Cry Baby® Wah is the result of the legendary prog metal shredder's years-long quest to hone his perfect wah tone. For years, John used the Cry Baby Rack Wah system to tweak and fine-tune its numerous parameters until he found the sound that perfectly represents all the expression and intensity he needs. Recently, he and Dream Theater engineer Richard Chycki worked with the Cry Baby design team to replicate and further fine-tune that sound with a single pedal. This is a wah that, as John puts it, "sounds huge and badass like an angry, screaming monster with the ultimate expressive range—it's perfect for shaping single notes or manipulating growling, heavy chords."

Those who have played the original know that while it excels at heavy tones when pushed, it is far more than just an amp for stoner rock and doom metal.

Der British Pedal Company Compact Series NOS Rangemaster ist eine kompakte, moderne Nachbildung eines der bekanntesten Effekte der Welt - des Dallas Rangemaster Treble Boosters. Die NOS-Version kombiniert authentische Vintage Parts (New Old Stock) mit einem modernen Effektpedal-Design. Erstmals im Jahr 1965 produziert, wurde der Rangemaster von vielen der weltweit angesehensten Gitarristen verwendet, darunter Eric Clapton, Tony Iommi, Rory Gallagher, Brian May, Marc Bolan, Ritchie Blackmore und vielen mehr. Der Dallas Rangemaster wurde ursprünglich entwickelt, um die Signalstärke auf dem Weg von der Gitarre zum Verstärker anzuheben und die Höhen im Signal zu boosten. Der Bedarf für einen Treble Booster entstand Mitte der 1960er Jahre, als britische Röhrenverstärker dazu neigten, bei Übersteuerung einen etwas 'dunklen, matschigen' Sound zu erzeugen, insbesondere wenn sie mit Humbucker Tonabnehmern gespielt wurden. Obwohl der Rangemaster als Treble Booster konzipiert war, wurde er auch als Overdrive Effekt verwendet, um mit vielen klassischen britischen Verstärkern einen verzerrteren, aber fokussierteren Klang zu erzeugen.

Originally produced in 1965, it has been used by many of the worlds most respected artists including Eric Clapton, Tony Iommi, Rory Gallagher, Brian May, Marc Bolan, Ritchie Blackmore and many more. The Dallas Rangemaster was initially designed to increase the signal strength of the guitar going into the amplifier, and to increase tones at the high-end of the spectrum. The need for a treble booster arose in the mid-1960s as British tube amplifiers tended to produce a slightly dark, muddy sound when overdriven, particularly when used with humbucking pickups. Although classed as a treble booster, the Rangemaster was also used as an overdrive pedal to give a more distorted but focused tone with many classic British amplifiers.

Der legendäre analoge DOD Overdrive Preamp 250 ist zurück, der auf eine über 40 jährige Geschichte zurückblicken kann. Die neue 2013er Version des legendären DOD 250 bietet den klassischen Klang und den wilden Charakter des Klassikers, ohne Abstriche zu machen. Der 250 ist nun noch besser denn je. Mit an Bord sind True-Bypass, eine klare, blaue Status-LED, ordentlich Output und ein zeitgemäßer 9V-Eingang für den Betrieb mit Netzteilen. Mit dem leichteren Aluminiumgehäuse, der gelben Metal-Flake-Lackierung und der mattschwarz lackierten Unterseite ist der 2013er DOD Overdrive Preamp 250 die ideale Grundlage das Vermächtnis von DOD weiterzuführen.

Der DOD Overdrive Preamp 250 (2013) bietet, wie seine Vorgänger, einen Gain- und Level-Regler. Mit Gain wird der Verzerrungsgrad bestimmt. Dieser reicht von leicht angezerrt bis kräftig verzerrt. Mit dem Level-Regler kann dem Klang mehr Substanz hinzugefügt werden, sodass das Pedal auch durchgängig angeschalten bleiben kann - oder weiter aufgedreht einen kräftigen Boost liefert, mit dem sich Soli selbst im dichtesten Soundmix durchsetzen. Die True-Bypass-Schaltung sorgt dafür, dass der Gitarrensound auch bei ausgeschaltetem Pedal klar bleibt. Dies ist ein großer Unterschied vom Original, welches den Klang des Instruments auch im ausgeschalteten Zustand färbte. Dank dem 9V-Eingang ist das Pedal nun auch noch Pedalboard-freundlicher.

The classic returns, first conceived by David Oreste Defrancesco (DOD’s namesake) in the ’70’s as a way to get distortion and boost without any of the downsides that came with some of the fuzzes of the era. This updated version uses the vintage correct LM741 OpAmp, just like back in the ’70’s. Modern appointments like a tough, light, pedalboard friendly aluminum chassis. standard power input jack, true bypass, LED indicator, and bullion gold powder-coat makes the 250 at home on any pedalboard.
