New Pedal: MXR Textures Granular Synth Engine

Most pedals take what you play and hand it back to you more or less intact. The MXR Textures does the opposite. It takes your signal, pulls it apart into tiny pieces called grains, and lets you rearrange them into something that barely resembles where you started. Inside the box…... Click for more

New Pedal: Meris Ottobit X

Some pedals evolve. The Meris Ottobit X resurrects - louder, stranger, and fully reborn.

The result is a full stereo modular degradation engine that doesn't just…... Click for more

Alexander Pedals Error XP Multi-FX Pedal

Alexander Pedals took their glitch-centric Syntax Error, shrunk it down, and added more ways to break your signal.

New Pedal: Electro-Harmonix Atomic Cluster
