Xotic Effect Pedals - EP BoosterThe very cool Xotic EP Booster takes a cue from the way Page, Hendrix and others utilized their Echoplexes as a preamp and gives you incredible full fidelity clean boost in a tiny package - 3.5" by 1.5" inches! This is the perfect way to fatten up your sound without really altering it. Even turned way down, this really expands your frequency. It's true bypass switching, takes a 9V battery but can also use an optional AC adaptor (VDC-18VDC neg. tip). We got these in about an hour ago and already two of our staff are purchasing them after a cursory run though. This uses a low impedance output, and gives you up to +20dB of boost with multi-dimensional, shimmering highs and lows. The internal DIP switches let you choose the boost frequencies, and EQ settings. Check out the clean and crunch soundclips at the Xotic Effects website. "First off, there isn't an Xotic pedal that I DON'T like. That being said, I had high expectations for this little guy when it arrived. Now that we've all had a chance to put it through the paces, I'm sold on it. A few of us have already bought one...let me tell you why! We plugged this Grosh Electrajet Special Limited Edition into a Dr. Z MAZ 18 NR for a run. With the amp set on the verge of breakup, this pedal helps it soar into overdrive in a very sweet way. It's super transparent and gives a nice 'expanded' quality to your sound...not just louder. All of the feel and tone you have with your rig is enhanced. You may even want to leave this pedal on at all times! The internal dips switches are very cool too and help you dial in the right amount of high/low end boost when you kick it on. Lastly, the footprint of this Xotic EP Booster is so small that you'll have no trouble finding space on your board." - Brian S. $145.00 retail $116.00 |
