a dual speed mode that is foot-switchable. As with all the Carl
Martin Vintage pedals, it comes in a solid, diecast housing with
CM graphics and chicken-head knobs. It can be powered by 9V
battery or a (recommended) regulated 9V power supply.

Fuchs Audio Technology Pure Gain Plus and Verbrator
Fuchs has announced two new additions to the Plush line of pedals. The
Verbrator (pictured) combines an all-tube effects loop with a studio grade 24-bit
digital reverb in a compact pedal-sized package. While it runs on a 9V adaptor,
a switching power supply runs the tube on the proper high voltages that tubes
crave. It can be used as a reverb pedal or as an effects loop for amps with passive loops, adding ‘verb to non-reverb amps.
The Pure Gain Plus combines two of their ultra-quiet Pure Gain modules with an A/B
box. When used with two guitars it allows you to both boost or buffer and match their
levels. When used with a single guitar, it will provide bypass and two distinct gain and/or
buffer settings.
MSRP $379 (Verbrator)
MSRP $279 (Pure Gain Plus)
