➍ MASTRO VALVOLA ANNOUNCES AREA REVERB ➍ The Mastro Valvola Area Reverb combines a fully-loaded feature set with four rich modes. Two of the four modes are Reverb and Mod, while the others are Shim[mer] 8th and 8th+5th. The Pre-Delay knob in the center adjusts pre-delay in the first two modes, or shimmer mix in the second two. Other controls include dampen and a handy preset switch. ➎ KEELEY ELECTRONICS UNEARTHS THE MONTEREY ➎ Keeley’s Monterey takes the idea of a full effect workstation and gives it a touch of Jimi by adding vibrato, rotary, fuzz, wah and octave features. A threeway toggle in the center switches between modulation modes, making up the left channel. The right channel is comprised of a delicious fuzz utilizing two NOS globe-top transistors. ➏ MCCAFFREY AUDIO RELEASES RUN RABBIT RUN ➏ McCaffrey’s Run Rabbit Run distills everything good about the original UniVibe into a smaller, more manageable box with a ton more options. Four-stage phasing, crazy ring-mod tones and a unique Thump control, coupled with the foot-controllable Speed knob really open up the expression capabilities. Two additional footswitches to toggle speed settings and modes are available as well. ToneReport.com 9
