Crazy Tube Circuits Motherload Drive

The Crazy Tube Circuits Motherload is an intriguing take on the hybrid distortion/fuzz pedal that borrows from two iconic circuits (the Muff and the Rat) to offer at once some old and new sonic flavors.

BIG EAR Albie Modulated Reverb

We are happy to see our old Brooklyn friends, now Nashville-based, BIG EAR Pedals release a new pedal, and a really intriguing one for that matter: the two-knob modulated reverb called ALBIE.

Released together with the Teletronix LA2A and the Flow tremolo, Universal Audio UAFX Brigade is (about) one-third of the company's big sibling multi-modulation pedal Astra. It's voiced after the iconic, vintage BOSS CE-1 Chorus Ensemble, and it's mono just like it (the Astra is stereo). This digital recreation of an…Click on the title for more

Old Blood Noise Beam Splitter

The Old Blood Noise Beam Splitter marks the return of the Oklahoma-based company to larger, more tweakable and creative "organic" multi-effect pedals, after a 3-pedal foray into quirky compact releases (aka the BL Series). Although "quirky" and "creative" are part of this builder's identity. This very "knobby" unit consists of…Click on the title for more
