Airis Effects is a boutique guitar pedal maker based in Ontario, Canada, founded by Richard Seidlitz in 2014. The company builds its effects by hand and focuses largely on the high-gain end of the spectrum, with a catalog that includes distortions, overdrives, preamps, boosts, and noise gates. Stock pedals sit alongside a custom shop that will accommodate graphic and circuit tweaks, and every unit ships with a two-year warranty.

The lineup spans drive and distortion stompboxes like the Savage Drive, Brutal Drive, Nemesis, Jormungandr, Venomous, Spec-Defier, and 51-Filthy, along with the HM808 (a take on the classic HM-2 voicing), the Nebula Overdrive, and the Lindworm series. Airis has also released amp-in-a-box style preamps and collaborated with other pedal builders, including a noise gate project with Keeley Electronics.

The brand is distributed directly through its website and via retailers such as Reverb, Guitar Center, and independent boutique shops, and has built a following in the metal and hard rock pedal communities for tones aimed at heavier playing styles.

Airis Effects has 14 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Overdrive Effects Pedals, Distortion Effects Pedals, and Boost Effects Pedals. Their gear is featured by 8 artists, with the strongest followings in Rock, Metal, and Pop. Notable users include Matt Heafy, Gary Holt, and Andrew Baena.
