Red Panda RD-1 Pitch Delay

Red Panda has spent years proving that digital doesn't have to mean cold. The Raster was their deep-dive pitch delay - a brilliant box with menus, alternate functions, and enough parameters to make a synth programmer weep with joy .

The Pattern Keeper is a phrase modulator disguised as a looper. Sixty seconds of stereo recording at 48kHz/24-bit, analog dry path,…... Click for more

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

BOSS XS-100 Poly Shifter

For decades, if you wanted dramatic, foot-controlled pitch bends, there was really only one game in town: the Whammy. It was iconic, but it could be noisy and fussy with chords.
