A production board. All time based fx are in the mx5 loop. Thorpy comp, fuzz and drive/boost before the MX5 via a switchblade for parallel sounds. EHX compressor is in the fx loop (allows consistant fx level if required) and also allows for volume swells or dirt on the fx loop only. Signal flow in the fx loop is: Platform Comp - Timeline - Cloudburst - Ultraviolet - Brig - Aeros Looper - El Capistan... return for IR's and Reverb in the MX5. It sounds amazing and a lot of variety is possible by placement of the loop within the MX5. Also of course all the other fx and goodies in the multi-effects. Joy.

THE DANE is a creation designed to meet the exacting needs of Danish Pete. However due to the design brief needing to cover the wide palette of sounds he uses, the pedal finished up being the most versatile pedal available on the market for such a clean design. THE DANE has two sides - a complex light to medium gain overdrive on the left and a high headroom super clean boost on the right. The pedal is designed so that the boost runs into the drive side. This yields three distinct tonal variations ranging from clean boost all the way through to full and fat saturation. The pedal is also designed to clean up impeccably from your volume control and as such it is ideal for dynamic players who like to adjust their playing style.

Der Electro Harmonix Switchblade Pro ist ein kleiner Loop-Switcher, mit dem sich Effektgeräte in zwei getrennte Loops einbinden lassen, denen dann auch noch das Direktsignal hinzugemischt werden kann. So ergibt sich zum Beispiel ein Vorteil für ältere Modulationseffekte, die nicht über einen Effekt-Level-Regler verfügen, mit dem man das Mischungsverhältnis zwischen Direkt- und Effektsignal einstellt.

The EHX Switchblade Pro is our deluxe switching box featuring true mechanical bypass, soft switching, high quality and low noise buffers, volume controls for all input signals, high headroom and a multitude of possible configurations for all your signal routing needs.

El Capistan v2

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.

A warm grittiness to the warble, a rippling, wooshing, bubbling irregularity to the modulation and a dynamic response to your picking are all hallmarks of the true vibe experience.

Thicker and chewier than any chorus, earthier than any phaser and uniquely magical in front of a driven amp, the perfect vibe pedal moves you to dig in and play without inhibition.

This feeling has been difficult to find outside of large and expensive fully-analog boutique units, but the search for that elusive experience is now over.

Delivering vintage vibe tone that’s second to none with simple and powerful controls for instantly obtaining a rich variety of captivating sounds, UltraViolet is the vibe pedal you’ve been looking for.

The delays that become true classics do not simply repeat the notes you play.

They do something special to each delay repeat – something that evokes a feeling, fueling the music and inspiring you.

Plug into Brig, play a note, and you’re instantly drawn in by repeats that evolve with captivating complexity and uncommonly rich tonal characteristics.

Brig delivers all the warmth, subtle grit and unique tactile playing experience of analog bucket brigade delays (BBDs), offering three distinct delay voicings in one highly addictive stereo pedal

Zunächst einmal ist der Singular Sound AEROS Loop Studio zwar nicht der einzige Looper mit Display, jedoch der einzige mit einem farbigen 4,3 Zoll Touch-Display. Der Singular Sound AEROS Loop Studio beruht auf einer SoC-Lösung, auf der eine Linux-Variante läuft.

Transcend boundaries with the Aeros multi-track looper pedal. Create and perform with simultaneous parallel and sequential loops. That's up to 6 song parts (sequential loops) each with up to 6 tracks layered over each other (parallel loops). Plus, experiment with unlimited overdubs for limitless live looping action.

Ich wurde von einer Reihe von Vintage-Pedal-Enthusiasten, die ich kenne, gebeten, das FALLOUT CLOUD zu entwickeln. Sie waren auf der Suche nach einem Pedal im Triangle-Stil, das mit einer Vielzahl von Gitarren (Humbucker und Singlecoils, einschließlich P90) und Verstärkern kompatibel und absolut robust ist, damit es auch live eingesetzt werden kann. Die Vorgabe war einfach: ein Fuzz im Triangle-Stil zu entwickeln, das ihre originalen Triangle-Fuzz-Pedale aus dem Jahr 1971 im direkten Vergleich übertreffen würde.
Das Pedal ist innen makellos verarbeitet und verwendet hochwertige 1 %-Metallfilmwiderstände, Wima- und Panasonic-Kondensatoren sowie Neutrik-Buchsen. Das sind die Crème de la Crème der Elektronikwelt, und in Kombination mit einer robusten vergoldeten Leiterplatte und staubgeschützten Potentiometern ist das Rezept so gut wie es nur sein kann.

I was asked to create the FALLOUT CLOUD by a number of vintage pedal enthusiasts I know. They were after a Triangle era style pedal that would work with a variety of guitars (Humbucker and singlecoil's including P90's) and amps and be bombproof so it could be gigged. The brief was simple, make a triangle era Fuzz that could beat their original 1971 Triangle fuzz pedals when placed head to head.
Internally the pedal is immaculately built using premium 1% metalfilm resistors, Wima and Panasonic capacitors, and Neutrik jacks. These are the crème de la crème of the electronics world and when coupled with a robust gold plated PCB and dust sealed potentiometers the recipe is as good as it can possibly be.

The FAT GENERAL MKII is an evolution of the critically acclaimed OTC-201 compressor. ThorpyFx and the original designer (Dan Coggins) have collaborated to deliver the next level of compression for guitarists. Unlike many other compressors, the FAT GENERAL MKII adds sustain and balance to your signal without unnecessary noise or signal “pumping”. You'll also notice that the FAT GENERAL MKII can be particularly transparent but with a sparkle and clarity that you were missing before. For me it has become an always on pedal, I cant play without it!

Aside from achieving fantastic sonic credentials the FAT GENERAL MKII is built like a tank with physical features such as recessed knobs and top mounted jacks. Robust build does not have to come at the sacrifice of looks, the FAT GENERAL MKII uses a combination of a beautiful stainless steel laser etched centre console wrapped in a tough baseplate.

The ThorpyFX Six Zero is an all-analogue Fuzz & tremolo pedal, designed and hand-built in the UK by Adrian Thorpe MBE and renowned pedal wizard Dan Coggins to celebrate 60 years of Andertons Music Co!

This unique piece of stompbox history started off as a simple question: how could you reimagine a guitar effect from six decades ago to suit the players & tone tinkerers of today? The resulting sounds range from white-hot sustain to shuddering psychedelic soundscapes, with a near-infinite number of sweet spots in between.

The PEACEKEEPER is our take on a low gain overdrive designed to suit all guitars and all amps whilst delivering the sweetest on the edge to crunch tones you have ever heard. Hyperbole aside, this pedal has some very cunning tricks up its sleeve, by combining a post gain active Treble and Bass circuit with a pre-gain Mids/presence control you are able to tailor the overdrive character and tonality to your exacting needs. The pre-gain mids control allows you to move from a very smooth mid scooped gain type to a more pronounced mid humped gain with all the subtleties in between. Post gain the active treble and bass controls adapt that focussed gain stage to achieve the tonality you desire/need. Used as a subtle boost into your amp (ala Klon style) or as an "on the Edge" overdrive, the PEACEKEEPER will make you wonder how you sound so good!

The WARTHOG started off being designed to be the distortion to beat all others; however it ended up being so much more. Through minute tailoring of the circuit, the WARTHOG delivers the biggest range of tones of any overdrive/distortion pedal on the market.  With an ability to go from crystal clean boost through to distortion the WARTHOG has sonic characteristics that match the military prowess of its namesake.  Its tonality is firmly in the American camp with sparkling cleans similar to the best amplifiers in that genre, With the calibre and gain controls cranked you get a crushing distortion with fuzzy overtones at the very extremes of travel.  All settings are extremely addictive, with a 3 dimensional and complex sound that makes your playing jump from the fretboard.
