The world is full of pedals that affect the amplitude (i.e. the volume) of the signal they are fed: compressors and tremolos do that. But nothing delivers the sonic goods offered by the 
NYC's Pigtronix has released a lot of different pedals since its launch, but none has gone through as many variations and evolutions as the appropriately named Echolution, a stereo Multi-Tap pedal with modulation and, in some versions, filter.

Here's the latest ProGuitarShop video of the new Pigtronix Disnortion Micro.
Notes from the manufacturer:

A single-gain knob controls the saturation of both the fuzz and overdrive circuits simultaneously. The Parallel routing mode is ideal for players who like to pile on the gain without sacrificing clarity, dynamic response, punch or low end–it’s like double-tracking your guitar inside a micro pedal! The Series routing mode offers an even wider range of gain and more extreme filter effects for metal tones and beyond, including self-oscillating timbres that can be modulated by pickup selection and guitar control settings."...
