Walrus Audio Lüm Granular Reverb

Walrus Audio took three of their most interesting pedals — the Slö, Lore, and Fable — threw them in a blender, and came out with something that's earned its own permanent spot on the roster. The Walrus Audio Lüm is a granular reverb that doesn't just wash your signal in…... Click for more

Chase Bliss Big Time Stereo Delay

A thousand dollars. For a delay pedal. Let that sink in. Here's the thing, though. Joel Korte and his team and John Snyder (Electronic Audio Experiments) have built something that actually justifies the price tag. The Chase Bliss Big Time isn't another digital delay with fancy marketing. It's a painstaking…... Click for more

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

Updated Pedal: Strymon TImeline MX Delay

When it came out, the Timeline was the delay pedal that made other delay pedals feel like toys. The Strymon Timeline MX doesn't replace it — it mutates it. The original's twelve machines are still here — dTape, dBucket, Digital, Dual, Pattern, Reverse, Trem, Filter, Diffuse, Ice, Duck, and Lo-Fi…... Click for more

GFI System Solis Ventus Delay/Reverb

Hailing from the Indonesyan brand that gave us the Specular Tempus (also a stereo, multi-algorithms reverb + delay pedal), the GFI System Solis Ventus expands on its predecessor offering a dual DSP engine, powered by two 32-bit ARM processors. This configuration allows you to run two effects (delay-delay, reverb-reverb, or…... Click for more

Keeley RK2000 Funk Siren Delay

In 1983, Ibanez/Maxon built something absurd: the DM2000, a 12-bit digital delay so over-engineered that it made everything else look like a toy. Forty years later, Trey Anastasio has been abusing one onstage, using its Hold function to create infinite, warbling loops called the "Funk Siren." The only problem? Vintage…... Click for more

Chase Bliss Brothers AM Overdrive

Inspired by the AnalogMan King of Tone, the legendary dual overdrive pedal that, one may say, started the trend of high-quality, multi-function dual-channel dirt boxes, the Chase Bliss Brothers AM overdrive is a reinterpretation and expansion of that circuit, designed in collaboration with its original creator, Mike Piera. Also a…... Click for more

New Pedal: Meris Ottobit X

Some pedals evolve. The Meris Ottobit X resurrects - louder, stranger, and fully reborn. Meris took the Ottobit Jr. and Ottobit Sr.—their vintage gaming-inspired glitch boxes—and injected them with enough '80s nostalgia to fill a John Hughes marathon. The result is a full stereo modular degradation engine that doesn't just…... Click for more
