Looks like Mooer aren't satisfied with trying to put the willies up Strymon/Eventide/Boss with their digital pedals and the Ocean Machine...now they seem to want to eat AMT's lunch, too:
Question is...what are they? Been talking to Drew, and so far we have...
1 - Diezel
2 - Marshall
3 - ?
4 - Vox
5 - EVH 5150
6 - ?
7 - ?
8 - ?
9 - Budda
10 - Hiwatt
Any ideas? In any case, I think this is going to be a
very interesting development if they're any good, particularly since I've been toying with the idea of chucking together a preamp-based board which can be plugged into any effects return for live stuff and sound practically the same (if I ever get back to that).

6 a bass amp I can't think of
3. Mesa (I think)

8 looks like a Fender blackface, perhaps?
No idea about No.3. Was thinking ENGL but I doubt it.
Seriously, their range is starting to get to Boss proportions now. They just don't seem to be able to stop making new pedals.

These look interesting. A bass one with DI would be right up my street.
6 is it a tweed?
but yes saw these FB this morning and thought oooooh now thats a bit interesting for a back up amp to have in the kit bag, or something. then i thought nah thats the ale farts from last night and got on with me day.
If these pedals are that good, then (at Mooer prices) this could be a game changer.
Imagine an alternate scenario: running one of the clean preamp pedals (a Fender-ish one, for example) as the last pedal in your chain. Put a distortion like the Bogner Red in front of it. You can basically run that into the effects return of any amp and have it sound pretty much identical every single time, and tweak the preamp EQ (ie global EQ) to taste.
So...any time there's a shared backline at a gig, you can literally show up with your guitar and pedalboard, but be reasonably sure of the sound you're going to get. That's gold.
Other than that they're interesting for sure.
A nice bass one into my monitors would be perfect for bass too.
But does anyone else just hate their lack of originality. They seem to sit and wait for other pedals to be developed just to clone them, and woooo look how small they are. I just can't warm to them.
