Mini Pedals

Electro-Harmonix Pico Platform Mini Compressor/Limiter

The Electro-Harmonix Pico Platform is the mini, mono version of its big brother/father, the Platform. The much-shrunken footprint doesn't leave space for a lot of the fine-tuning controls of that original design, with only four knobs controlling Attack, Sustain, Volume and Blend - the latter being particularly welcome by those…Click on the title for more

TC Electronic Infinite Mini Sample Sustainer

The TC Electronic Infinite Mini is the reduced version of a pedal the Danish-born, but Switzerland-owned (via Behringer) company unceremoniously "recreated" from an original idea by the folks at Gamechanger Audio. We are referring to the Plus pedal, a circuit that loops the tail end of your long notes creating infinite…Click on the title for more

Nux Morning Star Overdrive

Pedal clones often sport not very subtle references to the pedals they are inspired by, and that's definitely the case for the NUX Morning Star overdrive, a Blues-Breaker-style pedal that shares more than a word with the (extremely popular) JHS Morning Glory. Surprisingly, it differs in color, but size and…Click on the title for more

Pigtronix Disnortion Micro

This new micro version of the Pigtronix Disnortion Micro improves on the original’s broad palette of touch-responsive dirt sounds by including the ability to switch from a parallel routing to a new, super-saturated series routing where the 6-stage CMOS overdrive circuit is cascaded into unique Pigtronix diode-clipping fuzz, and then…Click on the title for more

Utilizing the experience (and algorithms) of the Chinese builder's popular Solid Studio preamp and cab sim pedal, the NUX Pulse is the first stereo IR loader/cab simulator in mini format.

Lil’ RAT Distortion

ProCo's family of RATs has just birthed a lil' one! The Lil' Rat is a miniature version of their recent RAT 2, with the same circuit and the same components, although - due to its dimensions - we can expect a lack of 9v battery compartment. The Proco Lil' RAT…Click on the title for more

The One Control Silver Bee 4K Mini is a shrunken version of the "regular" Silver Bee, a version of the Honey Beevoiced after classic American "silvery" combo amps, the kind of gear that had a helping hand in crafting some of the world's finest rock records. It has the same…Click on the title for more

Electro-Harmonix Slap-Back Echo Reissue

The JHS Show has become so influential that if Josh Scott declares in it that a vintage pedal should be reissued, it really makes little sense, for the original builder, NOT to reissue it. Enter the Electro-Harmonix Slap-Back Echo Reissue, the re-release, in mini format, of a vintage design from…Click on the title for more

Wampler Tumnus V2 Overdrive
