Meris Ottobit Jr.

The Meris Ottobit Jr. is presented as 'a maniacal little machine, inspired by vintage gaming consoles' - or, if you wish, an 8-bit pedals on steroids: a stereo “Audio In >> Video Game Out” device that lets guitarists employ synthesis techniques and bitcrushing to create new audio textures.

Red Panda Tensor Time Warp Pedal

We were really hoping to have the new Tensor on the Red Panda board at this past weekend's L.A. Stompbox Exhibit.
