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).

BOSS DM-101 Delay

Leveraging eight analog but digitally controlled 2048-stage BBD chips, the BOSS DM-101 is a modern delay pedal that confirms a few new trends in the "big-name" stompbox industry, such as the takeover of stereo and presets, but also a more granular approach to multi-mode devices: where the pedals of yesteryear…Click on the title for more

Vongon Polyphrase Stereo Echo

Mr. Black JDD-3000+ Digital Delay

While the word "digital," when applied to delay, made some musicians and producers of the '80s run away in horror, the shoegazer movement embraced those rather primitive rack effects, making their artifacts part of their sound. The Mr. Black JDD-3000+ is a pedal that recreates one of the most sought-after…Click on the title for more
