BIG EAR Pedals - ALBIE Ambient Modulator

We're excited to have the latest pedal from our friends at Big Ear pedals, the BIG EAR Pedals - ALBIE Ambient Modulator. Check out their description below.
From Big Ear Pedals: The ALBIE pedal, inspired by their close friend and collaborator, Joe McCaffrey (of the band Nightmare of You), has eight different settings specifically built and curated to cover the jangly, shimmering, modulated sounds associated with the New Wave & Post Punk music of the ‘70s & ‘80s.
ALBIE has two knobs, “Effect” and “Blend.” The “Effect” knob allows the user to change between eight different pedal-chains or “stacks” of effects (the LEDs light up with the corresponding effect). The “Blend” knob mixes the chosen effect setting into the clean- tone of the guitar, making this pedal especially perfect for those with option-paralysis.
The clicking momentary footswitch operates like a standard footswitch, but when held down provides a secondary setting for each “effect.” These extra settings are called the “Neil Modes”—named after Neil Graham of Dr. Scientist who programmed the digital code for ALBIE, as well as designed these secondary settings.
ALBIE comes in a transparent “Aqua Teal” enclosure with “ALBIE” printed largely over the face of the pedal in typical BIG EAR pedals fashion. Power requirements are 9VDC, center negative (111mA minimum).
