From MBS Effects out of Buenos Aires, Argentina comes a truly innovative design - the Parallel Universe. This unique pedal provides a variety of signal routing and blending options, offering rig routing choices that before might have only been daydreams.
At its core, it is a mixer that allows you to mix your dry signal with whatever you have in the effects loop of the pedal in a parallel fashion. But the Parallel Universe is so much more than just that - it can be used as a true bypass loop, active mixer, mute switch, and signal driver.... Click on the title for more

With the exception of their tremolo, Athens, Georgia's Greer Amps has been focusing on producing great sounding distortion pedals.
They recently announced their first delay pedal – the Black Tiger Delay Device, which marries analog and digital, and prides itself of its smooth and very natural decay. It is designed to sound every bit as warm as the great analog delays of yesteryear, but with some modern updates.... Click on the title for more

There aren't many pedal manufacturers in Brooklyn (the cost of housing certainly doesn't attract small businesses), but at our recent Stompbox Exhibit we had the chance to familiarize with a really interesting boutique one, called Tomkat Pedals. The company seems dedicated to rei-imagining classic fuzz circuits and incorporating some more modern modifications to them. Their newest design is the Bender fuzz, their take on the venerable Sola Tonebender Mk II (considered by many one of the very first guitar pedals).... Click on the title for more

Many legendary pedals were created under the Ross brand, and their designs are still relevant and beloved by both gearheads and studio guys alike. One of their most famous was a compressor, simply called the “R-Comp,” which Gilbert, Arizona's manufacturer Vick Audio managed to recreate faithfully.... Click on the title for more

Mr. Black, out of the great northwest, has been designing cutting-edge guitar pedals for a while now. Their latest innovation comes in the form of the Ambience Echoverb, born from the perfect marriage of a multi-tap delay and reverb. The Ambience falls somewhere between a delay, a reverb, and a modulation pedal capabale of conjuring up great ambient Edge-inspired sounds and equally at home on leads and rhythms....

Brainchild of singer Haleh Gafori and drummer Matt Kilmer, NYC's duo The Mast in the recent past has been developing their dream pop in a growingly electronic direction. The project has always been centered around Haleh's ethereal vocals and airy melodies and Matt's jungly, intricate beats (mostly played live), but the guitar that was resting on the singer's shoulder has been replaced by an electronic toy and an iPad, while the drummer's set up has changed radically, losing almost entirely the traditional drums, replaced by an intriguing hybrid featuring a mix of synths, tablets and exotic percussions. We thought this band would be perfect for our series of Q&A related to gear and the creative process.... Click on the title for more
