New Pedal: Side Effects Mocking Bird Delay V3

The Side Effects Mocking Bird Delay has been around since 2017 but the builder kept improving the circuit and this is the 2022 version, which we will call V3 to differentiate it from the videos of it shot around 2020 (which we'll call V2) and the ones shot when the…... Click for more

Rainger FX Bleep Fuzz

In all likelihood, you are familiar with Rainger FX's Dr. Freakenstein Fuzz and its little Igor pressure controller; even a quick look at it tends to generate a lasting impression.

With the Stone Ages, Spanish amp and pedal builder Thermion is going for an ambitious attempt at creating a fuzz that can do it (almost) all, thanks to its four voicings, octave and clean footswitches, and generous sculpting options - the octave and clean channels can actually be fine-tuned through…...

Third Man Coppersound Triplegraph Octaver

Mr. Jack White of The White Stripes' fame is known for loving noisy and sometimes quirky pedals, so much so that, in the last few years, he's been commissioning selected builders to create custom-tweaked stompboxes to sell exclusively through his label Third Man Records - previous examples include pedals by…...

AC Noises Ama V2 Reverb + Bit Crusher

The AC Noises Ama V2 is an ambient reverb followed by a switchable Bitcrusher (Crush toggle) and a modulation section (OSC knob).

Demiurge Instruments Blackstone Phaser

There's very little information about this intense phaser pedal by Demiurge Instruments called Blackstone Phaser. Apparently, it's an evolution of an obscure Blackout Effectors dual phaser that adds an extra rate setting - the two speeds can be switched through the Rate knob. Each Rate knob has its own "Range"…... Click for more
