An iconic Vox AC30 on your pedalboard? The Vox Mystic Edge preamp pedal uses NuTube technology to deliver classic AC-style tone in a compact pedal enclosure.

Iconic amp sounds for your pedalboard. The Mystic Edge valve distortion pedal offers the chime and midrange of the VOX AC30 in a compact pedal format, powered by Nutube for warm and responsive amp-like tones.

Inspired by the VOX AC30's chime and midrange, the Mystic Edge goes beyond the amp-in-a-box category to offer a truly flexible valve distortion pedal. The all-analog signal path and Nutube allow for genuine overdrive and distortion tones with the feel of a real tube amp, while internally boosted voltage gives greater headroom and dynamics. Plus, the OLED display shows an oscilloscope while the pedal is active or bypassed, allowing you to understand exactly how your signal is affected. Three output modes allow you to use this as a standard pedal, a line-level preamp, and a direct amp-sim using the built-in analog cabinet simulator. Use STANDARD mode with your normal guitar rig to totally transform your amp, or use PREAMP or CAB-SIM mode while recording directly into your audio interface. In each mode, the all-analog design and active EQ allow you to perfectly dial in the sound you need in any situation.

Features:

- Valve distortion pedal with all-analog signal path
- Iconic sound of the VOX AC30
- Powered by Nutube
- Three output modes for use as a pedal or preamp
- Selectable analog cabinet simulator
- OLED display with oscilloscope
- Active EQ to shape your signal

"Sounds and feels like an AC30 when you use it as a preamp"

This pedal has three modes, you can use it as a preamp into a poweramp or the return of an effects loop, you can use it as a typical overdrive pedal, or you can use it to go direct with an included cab sim. When used as an overdrive pedal it sounds good, it gives your rig an AC30ish vibe. But it will depend on what amp and speaker that amp has. So it how close to the AC30 you get will vary. Having said that, its a very touch sensitive low to mid gain pedal. IMO the real magic of this pedal is when you use it as a preamp. When you plug the Mystic Edge into the effects return you can get really close to sounding like an AC30. You can go from clean all the way to the classic AC30 distortion. And more impressively, it feels like an amp. It reacts very organically to how you pick, which is one of the coolest things about an AC30. So definitely a big win in the sound and feel department. Another very cool thing when using it in preamp mode is how it takes other overdrives and fuzzes. It sounds great stacked with other pedals, it doesn't have a huge amount of headroom, but then again, neither does a real AC30. So you can feel assured that if you have any drive pedals you love with your Vox they'll also sound great with this pedal. TLDR its a great preamp that has the AC30 sound and feel. How close you get will depend on the power amp and speakers you run it through.
