I dig a good multi-effects unit, one with a ton of sonic options and inspiring tones…but sometimes, they can be a little overwhelming with too much going on. Today’s pedal, the Mooer META FX Stereo Multi-Effect Platform, slims the multi-effect universe down just a bit, to not only make it easy to navigate, but fit into ANY pedalboard or rig with ease. Providing dozens of effects in gorgeous stereo sound, this little unit...

Last summer, I had the pleasure of checking out the Everlast Stereo Delay from Klowra, and it completely blew me away. Today, I’m taking a look at another beauty from this company, one that combines vintage echo delays with tasteful modulation, for a sound that’s extremely useable and unique. The Rilum Multi-Head Tape Delay + Modulation is filled with wonderful, warm tones, some fun hidden options and modern functionality,...

The fact that my daughter has been obsessed with dragons for...

I’m stoked to finally be collaborating with the fine folks at Electro-Harmonix on some demos, and we’re starting with one of their new, smaller pedal releases from the Pico Series.

It may be little in...

I first got my hands on an effects unit from ezhi&aka about 6 years ago (the magnificent Moomindrone T Drone Delay), and is the years since, have had the pleasure of checking out their Polarized Flutter Lofi Tapestop and Polarized Flutter + Echo pedals, and they’re all nothing short of brilliant. Today’s unit from them, the Double Tape T Broken Tape Deck Emulator, might just be the best one yet. Aside from being the...
