SANSAMP PSA1 & POWERENGINE 60

Tech 21's Sansamp PSA1 is the most versatile non-digital guitar pre-amp available - it uses a variety of extremely high quality circuitry to effectively achieve an all-analogue modelling pre-amp, capable of a wide range of tones from clean to cream to crunch, as well as full-on distortion in both 'British' and 'American' styles. It's fully programmable so that sounds can be recalled easily for re-takes, or mid-song via the MIDI Mouse footswitch. Use it either with the built-in speaker emulation straight into Pro Tools, or fire-up the Celestion-loaded Power Engine 60 2x12" power amp/speaker cab to take advantage of our extensive mic collection. You can also see our Korg DTR2000 rack tuner in the picture - use this in 'strobe' mode for super-accurate tuning of guitars, basses and other instruments - complete with a nice big display, built-in microphone and alternate tunings.

MOOG PEDAL BOARD

Bob Moog's name is synonymous with the finest in synthesizer design, but his Moogerfooger pedals have now become modern classics, well known to discerning guitarists and bassists for offering unique effects with audiophile quality, and an incredible level of real-time control - all pedals can be controlled via expression pedals (we have 3), and you can even interconnect their control voltages to design totally new effects. Their very wide ranging input gain controls allow them to be used with anything from guitars to +4dB pro gear, and of course, if you want the complete Moog synthesis experience, you can always plug your instrument into our MiniMoog Voyager!

1. MOOGERFOOGER RING MODULATOR

   One of only a few ring modulators available, the pedal takes your instrument's signal and processes it with a built-in oscillator to produce sum and difference tones - produces anything from a slight metallic edge to extreme space aliens!

2. MOOGERFOOGER ANALOGUE DELAY

   Moog managed to source a limited quanity of original 'bucket brigade' chips to enable them to introduce this sublime-sounding pedal offering over a full second of true analogue delay - by far the longest available. Create some truly beautiful effects by interconnecting it with the other pedals in the range.

3. MOOGERFOOGER MURF

   A completely unique effect, the MuRF feeds your signal through a series of 8 Moog resonant filters, each of which has their own level control. What's more, the signal moves from one filter to the next in one of 24 different rhytmic patterns, the tempo of which can be controlled by knob or tap-tempo, and an envelope control shapes the attack and decay of each note. Seriously funky.

4. MOOGERFOOGER FREQBOX

   Another completely unique effect, the FreqBox essentially combines a classic Moog oscillator with an envelope follower to produce anything from subtle guitar-synth type sounds to full-on searing oscillator sync - must be heard!

5. MOOGERFOOGER 12-STAGE PHASER

   Moog's original 12-stage phaser has become a much-sought-after classic, and this modern refinement takes things a step further by substantially improving audio quality and reliability, as well as offering loads of real-time controls.

'MAGIC BOX' PEDAL BOARD

Our 'Magic Box' pedal board is stocked with what we feel are the finest examples of the staple guitar effects such as distortion, wah and chorus. We use GigRig Virtual Batteries to power pedals that can normally only be run on a 9V battery, to provide a constant level of power without losing low-noise performance.

1. ROCKTRON BANSHEE TALK BOX

   Make your guitar talk (or your bass, keyboard or turntable for that matter) and get some awesomely funky sounds in the manner of Frampton, Steely Dan, and best of all, Chaka Khan's 'Tell Me Something Good'! Rocktron's modern incarnation not only offers superior audio quality to original 70s models, but also carries no risk of damaging your amp.

2. TC ELECTRONIC SCF CHORUS/FLANGER

   Chorus and flanging from a company whose name is synonymous with top-quality audio processing. To be found on the pedal boards of many of the greats.

3. CORNELL REISSUE DALLAS-ARBITER FUZZ FACE

   Probably the best known and most sought-after distortion pedal thanks to its unique sound, and its use by Jimi Hendrix. This re-issue is part of a very limited run made by Dennis Cornell - who created the original Fuzz Face for Jimi - and uses a painstakingly tracked-down set of original components including the famous germanium transistors.

4. ELECTRO-HARMONIX BIG MUFF

   Another classic distortion pedal which has defined the sound of many bands for more than 30 years. Use the tone control to pick out harmonics, and the sustain control for huge sustain!

5. BOSS MT2

   For really extreme sounds, reach for the Boss MT2 - their single best selling pedal. It features two-stage gain for extra-heavy overdrive, and a 3-band EQ with sweepable mid for precision tone adjustment.

6. VOX V847 WAH

   A wider, cleaner sound than the Crybaby, the Vox pedal is the 'other' classic wah, and great for funk - Shaft anyone?

7. DUNLOP CRYBABY WAH

   The original wah made famous by Hendrix et al. A classic sound which also works very well when followed by distortion.

ERNIE BALL VOLUME PEDAL

A very high quality analogue volume pedal with a luxuriously smooth feel - keep both hands free while simultaneoulsy shaping your guitar sound.

MORLEY ABY

Top quality switching from Morley. Use it in 'AB' mode to instantaneously switch between two different amps and/or effects pedal chains, or in 'Y' mode to feed two signal paths simultaneuously.

RADIAL PRO RMP

This high-quality device takes professional level studio signals and cuts them down to standard 'instrument' level (e.g. guitar etc). Perfect for 're-amping' guitar and bass tracks after the event, and a host of more creative uses.

JBL EON10 G2

Makes a great bass amp in combination with our Summit tube DI, and is also handy for rehearsal and using the live room as an ad-hoc reverb chamber.

MACKIE 802-VLZ3

Submix keyboards, combine efects pedals in new and exciting ways, or use less interestingly as a rehearsal mixer :-)

ALESIS PICOVERB

Sometimes you need reverb in a hurry, or in an unusual position in a pedal chain - Picoverb to the rescue!
