Collision Devices is a French boutique effects pedal company based in Angers, in western France, founded by Baptiste and Denis. The pair build pedals by hand with a focus on experimental and ambient sound design paired with bold, graphic enclosure art. Powder coating, component sourcing, and assembly are all handled in or near their Angers workshop.

Notable releases include the Black Hole Symmetry multi-effect, the Singularity fuzz/delay/reverb, the TARS fuzz and filter pedal, Nocturnal, and The Ranch. Many designs feature multiple modes, preset storage, expression input, and tap tempo.
