The BLOOM V2 from Jackson Audio is a multi‑function dynamics pedal that combines compression, EQ, clean boost, and MIDI control in a single unit for use on pedalboards. Instead of emulating a single compressor style, the BLOOM V2 provides adjustable parameters for dynamics and tone, allowing control over feel, sustain, attack characteristics, and overall frequency balance. Six Compression Modes, One Cohesive Tool At the core of BLOOM lies a multi-mode compression engine offering   six distinct compression modes , each voiced for a different playing context. From vintage-style squash to fast, modern snap, the pedal adapts easily to clean, edge-of-breakup, and driven tones. In addition to the six main modes, BLOOM includes: Limiter mode   (White LED) for peak control and protection Dual compression mode   (Aqua LED), stacking two compressors in series for enhanced sustain and consistency Attack time can be fine-tuned, and a   parallel blend control   allows the dr...

The   Twin Trem   is a fully-analogue tremolo pedal designed to combine two classic modulation circuits into a single, flexible platform. By integrating harmonic and optical tremolo designs, it offers a wide range of rhythmic textures while maintaining a purely analogue signal path suitable for studio, rehearsal, and stage use. The pedal is engineered to support both traditional pedalboard layouts and more advanced signal-routing configurations, allowing musicians to explore tremolo placement and its interaction with other effects in a controlled, repeatable way. Dual Tremolo Architecture The Twin Trem features   two independent tremolo circuits , each with its own sonic character: The   Harmonic Tremolo   circuit delivers a rich, phase-shifted modulation inspired by classic amplifier-based designs. Its voicing produces a swirling, dimensional movement that interacts dynamically with the guitar signal. The   Optical Tremolo   circuit offers a smoother,...

  The   Optimist Dual Overdrive & EQ   is a compact yet highly configurable analogue pedal designed to deliver a wide range of drive textures combined with precise tonal shaping. Built around two independent overdrive circuits and a studio-inspired equaliser section, it is intended for integration into both simple pedalboards and complex, MIDI-controlled rigs. The pedal combines traditional analogue design principles with modern routing and control options, allowing it to function as a dual overdrive, a tone-shaping tool, or a central gain stage within a professional guitar setup. Dual Overdrive Architecture The Optimist features   two distinct overdrive circuits , each designed with a specific tonal role: OD1   is based on a mid-focused overdrive topology inspired by classic boutique designs known for their natural response and dynamic interaction with guitar pickups. This circuit is voiced to emphasise presence and articulation, making it suitable for lead...

M1000 — Professional Audio Mixer with Integrated Effects and Compact Sound Console The   M1000 professional audio mixer   is a compact sound console designed to support multichannel input management, flexible routing, and integrated signal processing for live performance, studio workflows, and sound reinforcement applications. It is intended for users who require hands-on control over multiple audio sources while maintaining a streamlined and portable setup. The mixer provides multiple input channels suitable for microphones, instruments, and line-level sources. Each channel typically includes gain control, equalisation, and auxiliary send routing, allowing precise tonal shaping and signal distribution. Dedicated faders and pan controls support accurate level balancing across channels, while master section controls handle overall output level and monitoring. Integrated effects processing enables common signal treatments—such as reverb, delay, and modulation—without...

Introductory overview The   Korg   Kronos 2 61-Key Keyboard Synthesiser (2025 model)   is a professional music workstation designed for studio production, live performance, and advanced sound design. It combines multiple sound engines, onboard effects, and solid-state storage in a single unit intended for keyboardists, producers, and composers who require a broad palette of sounds and integrated sequencing tools. Upon initial use, the Kronos 2 presents a solid build and a responsive touchscreen interface that supports efficient navigation. Startup times are relatively quick for a workstation of this class, allowing users to move rapidly into sound selection, performance, or sequencing tasks. Key characteristics and design The Kronos 2 features   nine dedicated sound engines , covering a wide range of synthesis methods and instrument modelling approaches. These include sample-based playback, virtual analogue synthesis, FM-style synthesis, physical modelling, and dedi...

Introductory overview The   MOOER   E7 Polyphonic Synth Guitar Effect Pedal   is a compact effects unit designed to introduce synthesiser-style tones into electric guitar signal chains. It provides seven distinct polyphonic synth voices, each paired with an individual arpeggiator, allowing guitarists and producers to explore synthesised textures without relying on a keyboard or software instrument. The sonic range covers multiple synthesis-inspired characters, including ambient pad-style layers, more focused lead-style voices, and bass-oriented tones that extend the low-frequency content of a guitar signal. This makes the pedal suitable for both textural sound design and rhythm-oriented applications. Key characteristics and design The E7 is a mini-format stompbox built around a polyphonic synth engine that tracks both single notes and chords. Rather than emulating traditional guitar amp or modulation effects, it generates layered, synthesiser-like tones directly from the...

Compact analogue drum synthesisers are designed to provide hands-on control over low-frequency sound generation in a portable hardware format. Devices such as the   Korg Volca Kick   represent this category by focusing on dedicated kick and bass synthesis rather than on full drum-kit emulation. These instruments are commonly used in electronic music production and live performance contexts where direct control, portability, and analogue signal paths are preferred. Analogue Low-End Architecture Compact analogue drum synths in this category are typically built around analogue circuits optimised for low-frequency sound design. Their internal architecture allows users to shape kick drums and bass transients through parameters such as pitch, decay, drive, and tone. This design approach supports a wide range of low-end characteristics, from short, percussive hits to extended sub-bass tones. As a result, these devices are often used in rhythm-focused electronic genres and hybrid ...

  The   Korg Volca Keys   is a compact analogue synthesiser designed for musicians and producers who want hands-on access to classic analogue sound generation in a portable format. It combines a true analogue signal path with a built-in sequencer, making it suitable for both studio use and live performance setups. Sound Engine and Synthesis Architecture The Volca Keys is based on a genuine analogue synthesis engine with   three-voice polyphony , allowing the instrument to operate in polyphonic, unison, and chord modes. This architecture supports a range of sound types, including melodic leads, pads, and layered textures. The analogue design contributes to the instrument’s characteristic tonal behaviour, with continuously variable parameters that respond directly to physical control input. This makes it suitable for users who prefer tactile sound shaping rather than menu-based editing. Sequencer and Performance Workflow An integrated   loop sequencer   ena...
