An all-analog, 4-stage phaser that delivers classic swirl and undulating waves of sound.
Magnetic Effects are pleased to release the Eye To Eye. An all analog phaser pedal produced in collaboration with New Zealand band The Datsuns to celebrate the release of their new album also titled Eye To Eye.
The Eye To Eye is an analog 4 stage OTA-based phaser capable of many shades of phase including slow and swirly through to fast and intense.
The versatile control set includes a MIX control which changes the ratio of dry to wet signal. This allows the pedal to blend between dry, phased and vibrato settings. At minimum, you will hear only the dry signal. Set it to noon for equal parts dry and wet, the traditional Phaser setting, and set it to maximum for 100% wet resulting in pitch vibrato. Exploring the in-between settings reveals more shades of phase.
The SPEED control has a wide speed range which is extended further via the three way RATE toggle switch which selects the overall speed range of modulation. The middle switch position disables the LFO to enable the Eye To Eye to act as a stationary filter.
The range of frequencies the phase sweeps through is controlled by the SWEEP control. Set low for a narrow range and a less dramatic effect, or higher for a wider range resulting in a more pronounced phaser effect.
The REGEN control produces a more mellow, sublet phase at lower settings and, at higher settings, adds a more pronounced and resonant phase effect.
A VOLUME control allows you to compensate for any perceived volume difference that can occur when using a phaser. It also allows for a boost in output level for solos.

The limited-edition stomp combines a TS-style overdrive with a Rat's filth into one enclosure.
London, England (January 28, 2020) -- Magnetic Effects are pleased to release the LIMITED EDITION Dual Drive.
The Dual Drive combines a Tubescreamer style overdrive and a Rat pedal into one enclosure. Each effect can be used independently or both can be used at the same time.
The TS style drive has been modded for asymmetrical clipping for more even order harmonics and a touch less compression. Along with a simplified signal path for a touch more clarity.
The Rat side is a straight up Rat with a couple of mods. Clipping has been changed to asymmetrical clipping for more even order harmonics and a touch less compression. The Tone control works in the conventional direction. (Not backwards like on an original Rat.)
9-18V operation is possible. 18V gives more headroom to the sound and a slightly punchier feel to the tone.
Great tone and features make the Dual Drive a worthwhile addition to any pedalboard.
Specs:
- Two drives
- Volume, Tone and Gain controls for both drives
- Top mounted Jacks and DC socket
- 9-18V DC operation via adapter
- True Bypass
- High input impedance and low output impedance

The 60+ guitars, amps, pedals, basses, and accessories that stood out from the crowd and earned our coveted Premier Gear Award this year.
Carr Telstar
This handwired 17-watt, 1x12 combo employs two familiar power tubes—a 6L6 and an EL84—to produce the presence and immediacy of a great Fender tweed, the thrilling sparkle of Vox overdrive, and a tighter, tougher bass response than you’d expect from a strictly vintage midsized combo. Telstar’s suave spring reverb, strong note fundamentals, articulate attack, and extraordinary touch response caused Joe Gore to exclaim, “I love this frickin’ amp.”Read the review
