Catalinbread Effects

Our newest Proto Club pedal is only available until June 12.

Our new X/F (Proto 6) was actually born in the analog realm after experimentations into crossovers became increasingly complicated and exceeded our normal PCB real estate. After moving the project back into the digital realm, we celebrated our expanded capabilities by integrating some interesting algorithms into the fold. The result is a modulation effect that is unique in the world of these types of effects: two separate frequency-dependent modulation types: chorus to the high frequencies and phaser to the lows. You can choose the frequency where phaser ends and chorus begins, and both are mixed out of phase with one another for a lush parallel mod experience.

Introducing the Clean Little Secret:

We’ve conquered the high-gain Marshall amp-in-a-box some time ago, and now our Clean Little Secret takes the classic low-gain Marshall BB formula and gives it a much needed refinement. We’ve beefed up everything from the classic amp enhancer, from the tone stack to the output stage and more, giving you just the right amount of kick. A completely overhauled tone section gives you individual control over treble and bass bands as opposed to a global tone k**b, and we’ve added some more bells and whistles to push the unity volume level up quite a bit. Our designer’s favorite op-amp keeps the action whistle-clean until you push the gain, giving you delicious edge-of-breakup tones at the end of the dial, but subdued always-on enhancement tones at any other position. Some secrets are better left unkept!

One singular thread winds within all human beings: the arts. Art and music are the world’s great unifiers; they exist in all pockets of the Earth and are among the most appreciable facets of culture that humankind has to offer. The visual arts in particular are important statement pieces; while created by humans, the work speaks for itself, engineered by a creator and presented with minimal comment. We’ve taken this inspiration to our own little slice of the arts and wrapped some of our most beloved reverb circuits in big, bold colors and linework, reminiscent of the German Bauhaus school’s early-1900s aesthetics. We’re stoked on how these finishes turned out and are excited to share them with you.

Available until April 23.

Back before the pedal industry really fine-tuned the concept of “overdrive,” there were several attempts at the subject, often with interesting results. This brings us to the Misnomer, the latest in Catalinbread’s Cabinet Series. The Misnomer is based on the Systech Overdrive, one such attempt that steps far outside the boundaries of overdrive by today’s standards, featuring hard clipping mixed with blistering op-amp gain and a resonant band-pass filter disguised as an EQ control. We’ve preserved the inner workings while adding some killer new features to get the most out of the circuit, like a clean blend and the ability to apply the filter to both the full mix or just the main circuit. If you’re looking for something outside the scope of dirt boxes—even now in 2026—the Misnomer is what you’re after.
