But what is the LoFi machine? it is a pedal that reduces the sample rate and depth, with a range from 60Hz all the way up to 31250Hz And, 5bit all the up to 16 bits parameter for controlling the depth of the sample… Thus, resulting bit-crusher type of sound. The LoFi Machine has three knobs along with a 3-way toggle switch. The three knobs on this pedal include: There is quite a big difference between these two. The flex boost is, in fact, a drive pedal which can also be used as a boost. Whereas the pure boost is a clean boost. In my opinion, the flex should actually be called an overdrive pedal. While for some of these there are newer and better alternative equivalents out there, a large number of these still holds their relevant place in their respective category - I will briefly review each, give my verdict as it pertains to me, and state notable alternatives!

I like the overall naturalness of the chorus sound I get from the Mooer Ensemble. Many other cheaper Chinese clone pedals tend to produce a tiny and thin chorus tone which I don’t like. The Mooer Ensemble king does not do this, and that is why I think it is such a great clone. It’s pretty tough, I would imagine, to recreate such a legendary Boss pedal. But, Mooer does it really well with this pedal. Secondly, The fonts of each of the Mooer pedals match up to the originals. From here it’s quite easy to tell which pedals they’re cloning.

Range: lets you play around with the range of the frequency. Moving this range knob to the right spreads the sound of the wah. Whilst moving it to the left closes it up. The first is that the Mooer pedals have very similar coloring to the original pedals from which they based on. I don’t think that it is any secret that the Mooer pedals are, for the most part, clones of other popular and/or discontinued pedals. Like I’ve mentioned, Mooer has since begun making their own original pedals. But it was these mini clone pedals that have made Mooer so well known. And, giving them the platform to eventually start creating and producing their own pedals. But, if you’d like confirmation that these are definitely clone pedals, we don’t have to look too far to actually recognize which pedals these are clones of. let’s look at two giveaway factors right off the bat: Apparently, the Pitch Box by Mooer pedals is a clone of the Boss PS-5 Super Shifter. I somehow don’t think that this Mooer pedal is actually a clone of the PS-5. That is not to say that it didn’t draw inspiration from the Boss. In fact, it is quite obvious to see that this Mooer pedal is based, loosely, on the PS-5, but is certainly no clone. Tube Screamer clone pedals are a dime a dozen nowadays. In fact, the market is completely flooded with Tub screamer type clones. In my opinion, however, very few pedal manufacturers have managed to nail the TS clone down at an affordable price. Mooer pedals along with Joyo pedals make two of the best tube screamer clones out there. Whilst the Joyo clones the TS808, this Mooer Green Mile clones the just as legendary and famous, TS-9.

Mooer Mini Drives, Fuzzes A Quick Overview on the Best of the Mooer Mini Drives, Fuzzes

This is a very simple yet effective phaser pedal. It also sounds good and can definitely be compared to the MXR’s Phase 90 in terms of the way it sounds. I’d much rather buy the Mooer Ninety orange instead of the actual MXR. The reason is simple. You get a great sounding phaser pedal with two voicings in a compact pedal for an affordable price. But, if I must be honest, If someone gave me the opportunity to trade in the Mooer for an actual 1974 script phase, I’d take it. Only because they were, and still are such sought-after phaser pedals.At first glance, this MOC1 effects pedal looks very complicated. However, it is in fact quite simple to grasp. To start with, there are eleven different modes for the various octaves. With each different mode, you’re able to adjust, add and blend the low and high octaves to your taste. You can also control your original signal so if you want none of it you can take it away. If you only want a subtle octave, you can retain most of your original sound. The Silicon Fuzz Faces are known for being a rather wild and in your face fuzz tone. I like to describe it as a brash fuzz, but I the word “brash” in a positive way. What I mean by this is that when you engage the pedal, you’ll definitely stand out. Which is something I love about the sound of these. They’re full-blown fuzz in the true sense of the word. I much prefer the silicon fuzz sound to that of the germanium fuzz pedals. Mooer Blue Faze Vs. Dunlop Silicon Fuzz Face The Mooer has the same controls as the Boss however, it is missing an extra mode. This is the “Enhance” mode. If I’m honest, I’m glad Mooer didn’t add this as part of the clone. I tend to find this mode on the Boss AC-2 pretty much useless. Take a look at the video below which does a comparison between the Mooer and the Boss. By watching it, you really get to see the tonal differences between these two. When it comes down to it, I have a tough time choosing which one I prefer. I like the sounds of both.
