Janglebox clone? Wasn't there one knocking around?

I remember seeing a link somewhere for a similar pedal? Maybe a Chinese clone. I can't find it for the life of me.
Any old comp pedal might do the trick however, in this case.

AFAIK the JangleBox is just a Dynacomp with a switchable capacitor on the input.

I bought one when they first came out, and I’ve never been more underwhelmed by a pedal. It did the squish/jangle thing fairly competently, but was extremely noisy

@Seziertisch yep, that's what I've read too. I swear I came across a clone, a mini pedal. A Mooer mini sized pedal it was. A Donner maybe.

Mosky do a fairly direct Dynacomp clone so I wondered if it was them. Their other current mini compressor is based on the Keeley C4, I know that because it says so on their website!

@EricTheWeary thanks for the heads up! I will have a look!

These Chinese companies seem to change their ranges every 5 minutes so someone might have done a Jinglebox and now moved on. Quite interesting reading the Mosky website, they just say what they’ve cloned - Keeley, Tech 21,etc - with no attempt to hide it.

Jangle or no jangle I would get a compressor with a blend control. Much more useable than those without in my experience.

Is a Jinglebox for playing on Christmas hits? And is a Chinese Janglebox a Changlebox?

Jinglebox was my idea of what Mosky might call their Janglebox clone. Changlebox seems less likely.

I plumped for a Donner Ultimate Comp. I think that's the one I was looking at. I don't use comp much so no need to go mad!

Does anybody make an affordable clone of the Teletronix LA-2A? Two of those in series = instant McGuinn.
