Been jilted by other drive pedals? The Lover 2 may be the cure for a broken heart. It's a real looker and I'm loving the textures in this thing! From beautiful touch-sensitive overdrive to crunchy fuzz-tones, the Lover does it all! The high and low pass filters, each with an internal trim pot, make it easy to dial in the sounds I want from any guitar/amp, while the clipping diodes ("Lungs" knob) add fine-tuning to the overall texture and EQ. I go through a lot of pedals, and this one is absolutely a keeper.

Double Tape T is MADE for a wet/dry/wet setup. Running in in stereo is a cacophony of beautiful noise, with a dry signal in between you get something really special. Of all my ezhi&aka pedals, this one is the most Brian Eno-esque. It feels like having a EMS VCS3 on your board. It’s incredibly versatile and and can go from somewhat recognizable guitar or synth tones right into tape glitchy detuned space alien weirdness. If you play with a stereo amp setup (or even better, wet/dry/wet), I highly recommend the stereo version, totally worth it.

Brom is pure chaos, and unlike any of the other twentyish fuzz pedals I own. It can do glitchy modulated fuzz, kind of like early Spacemen 3, right up to wall of sound noise similar to the 90s post rock Kranky Records bands (Jessamine, Godspeed You Black Emperor, etc). And the best part is, when you’re not melting faces with it, it’s dead quiet.

Terrible Mother sounds like there’s gremlins inside of the pedal plugging and unplugging cables into a patchbay while you play. It’s unpredictable, to say the least. I’ve been naming bands in my other ezhi&aka reviews that remind me of the pedal’s effect, but with Terrible Mother, I can’t think of a good reference point. It’s really that unique. I love it equally on synth or guitar. If you’re into experimental music and want something that inspires creativity and can’t be replicated by anything else, go for it, you won’t be disappointed.

Running for 78 is another one where you can run a simple loop in front of it and the 78 is the instrument. Completely mangles whatever you feed it and makes it unrecognizable, not the kind of thing you’re going to bring to your jazz trio. Kind of a more experimental NIN Downward Spiral type pedal, 90s digital degradation goodness.

Fantastic delay that sounds very nice and organic. It does subtle well and can extend into far reaches of tape without sounding out of place. A lot of tone available in a great pedal! Also sound shoppe was amazing with the turn around time, pretty much had it a day after I ordered it

This glitchy, skipping, bit-crushing powerhouse is a lofi vibe-maker. There's something nostalgic about these sounds that adds a little something extra to whatever you run through it. I'm a fan.

The Stretch Weaver brings two channels of audio together in unexpected ways. There are so many modes (and moods) that take you to interesting places - as the two channels interact, they bob and weave and step in time with each other - all the while taking you on a journey as you flip through the modes. Def worth checking out if you can snag one!

This thing is a glitchy roll-of-the-dice and that's what makes it great. It has a bit of a mind of its own in the best way, and you have to learn how to work with it (more of a partnership, a conversation really) but that's part of the charm. Big fan of the crispy lofi vibes this brings to the table.

Really happy with the Soirce Audio Spectrum. Great sound quality, easy to use, and definitely worth it. Would recommend!

A cool heavy Fuzz/Distortion with low pass and high pass filters for strong EQ capabilities. Two switches, sliders and toggles offer a wide variety of available gain structures and tones.

This is an incredible pedal that is hard to find new. I am so glad I found this shop. They have the coolest selection of pedals and amazing customer service. The shipping was super fast and the personalized card was a nice touch. I will definitely be buying from here again!

Got this a few weeks ago and it’s been keeping me occupied and fascinated since. By far my weirdest pedal, but as such also strangely compelling. It’s a bit difficult to describe, but imagine a mix of dry signal with a randomizer engine switching between four individually controlled delays. This creates rhythmic, stuttering textures and patterns, sometimes following your playing and sometimes seemingly expressing a mind of it’s own. There’s ring-modish sounds, glitchy sequencers, degraded tape, radio-like static and smeared, repeated fragments. It can be very musical, and after a small knob adjustment become wildly unpredictable. Definitely not for everybody, but there’s great fun to be had balancing on the line between strange rhythm generation and chaos. The graphic design is also unique in it’s strange and slightly harsh beauty.
Big plus for the extremely smooth buying experience. Very friendly and personal service. Greatly appreciated.

There are only a few options out there for this type of utility pedal (and indeed, most have basically become unobtanium these days), yet every pedal-head really ought to have AT LEAST ONE of these devices for sonic experimentation. A frequency-split crossover pedal is a massive force multiplier regarding new possibilities for your pedal collection, even if one's particular usage is very subtle (a bit of glow to the high spectrum, a bit of delay to only the lowest bass). This studio-realm effect really isn't possible in a pedal-chain without such a device (certainly not without a LOT of trouble to recreate this effect as effortlessly as the XO can).

The XO provides all of the important elements you'd want in a crossover pedal (phase toggle, etc.), but I think its secret weapon for experimentation is the "send flip" toggle. Whilst trying out one's pedal menagerie in the low/high freq. loops, this makes it MUCH more convenient (and fun!) to swap the 2 send loop paths and tweak the crossover point/etc. while determining low/high loop-chain preference. I don't believe any other crossover pedal has this quick-swap feature, and once you've tried it, it becomes essential for this type of device. The "range" toggle is also a rather unique bonus, and shows that G.E.FX is carefully considering practical usage and satisfaction for a variety of instruments/players. Lovely!
