The Context is a reverb pedal inspired by 1980’s rack mount reverbs. It has 8 algorithms, including room, hall, cathedral, gated reverb, reverse reverb, plate, spring, and a granular reverb. Version 2 adds stereo input/output, USB MIDI, fully assignable expression pedal, 3 new modes, delay plus reverb in all modes, separate high and low frequency damping controls, modulation, dynamic reverb, and infinite hold.

The Room, Hall, Cathedral, Gated, and Plate reverb algorithms are updated versions of the Context version 1 reverbs, but now delay is available in all modes. They also have separate low and high damping controls with more range.

The modulation knob changes the amount and character of the internal reverb modulation. It gives you a mix of different modulation types from 1980’s and early 90’s reverbs, including chorus modulation, random modulation that keeps the pitch stable, and deep modulated reverbs. Holding down the shift button adjusts the modulation rate.

Reverse reverb fades in louder and brighter over time, giving the impression of playing backwards. Modulation adds a wash of normal reverb.

The spring reverb is not a model of any specific spring reverb. Instead, we designed a spring reverb algorithm using the techniques and algorithms that were used in 1980’s reverbs, but with a lot more processing power available. It gives you the chirp, drip, and feel of a spring reverb with a slight twist. You can adjust the length of the decay, high and low frequency damping. The modulation is tremolo with adjustable intensity and speed.

Grain mode is a granular reverb inspired by the Ursa Major SST-282 Space Station. The SST-282 was released in 1978 and used multiple delay taps with modulation to create reverb effects. The Context can create ghostly reverb effects, slowly sweeping resonances, and at higher modulation settings is a multi-voice granular processor that creates clouds of detuned sound fragments for entirely new reverb sounds.

When the shift button is held down, the top row of knobs adjust delay parameters. The low and high damping knobs adjust dynamics for ducking reverb or an expander for more reverb on louder notes, with adjustable threshold and recovery time. Holding down the foot switches gives you two different types of infinite sustain.

One preset available on the left footswitch, 127 via MIDI or our remote footswitch. Expression pedal/CV can be assigned to any combination of parameters. We will also have a web-based editor for tweaking and managing your presets.

Designed and assembled in USA. The Context 2 requires a 9 V 250 mA center negative power supply (not included).

Offering higher-quality IR support and more features than its little brother the GE200, the GE250 fills the gap in MOOER’s GE Series.

The GE250 offers many of the same features expected from a GE multi-effects unit such as 70 digital amp models, over 180 different effects, customizable effects chain, drum machine, metronome, 70-second looper, and easily customizable and storable presets. It even borrows some features from the GE300 such as Tone Capture to create your own digital amp models. MIDI IN/OUT, easy FX LOOP integration and low-latency USB audio support make it suitable for live performance or recording directly to a PC.

All of these features come wrapped in a fresh new black on white design to set it apart from the rest.

A handmade all-around fuzz pedal based on the classical Fuzz Face. It can be built in three versions, silicon, germanium or hybrid si-ge for the best of both worlds.

Apart from the usual Volume and Fuzz controls, this one has a Tone knob that controls the amount of bass entering the circuit and paired with the Mode switch has a wide spectrum of tones from the trebly tonebender mk1.5 to the full bass modern fuzzes. The Pregain acts like an attenuator just like the volume of your guitar, it can be used to clean the fuzz or to be more friendly with some wahs. The Bias helps with the temperature on the germanium version but it also is useful to sculpt the signal towards more zippery or more overdriving tone.

Graph Tech's calibrated & synchronized tuning system makes tuning and re-tuning your bass faster and more intuitive. Tuning on the fly has never be easier!. Each string position has it's own calibrated gear ratio, so every string feels and reacts the same to any tuning adjustment.

One full rotation of any key results in a one full tone pitch change (give or take). From Low B to C, on a 6 string, small diameter post, the gear ratio's are 48:1, 36:1, 30:1, 20:1, 18:1 and 16:1.

In order to achieve the higher gear ratio's, Ratio's are the world's first machine heads using a double envelope gear design with a hardened steel gear. Amazingly smooth and super strong.
