The Fireball II
The Fireball Overdrive 2 is a transparent dual channel overdrive. The first channel allows you to dial in light to medium overdriven sounds, which is great for rhythm work. The "Boost" channel gets you medium to higher gain sounds with lots of sustain and even ordered harmonics. This is great for solo passages and will make your guitar and amp sing. The gain can be individually adjusted for the normal channel and the boost channel.

The "comp on/medium/comp off" feature (selectable via a three position toggle switch) selects between non-compressed clean boost, transparent overdrive or compressed, smooth overdrive sounds. The Tone knob is a powerful active presence control that can cut or add higher order harmonics.

The Fireball 2 has a number of additional controls that allow you to set up and finetune the basic sound of the pedal: Three switches control the amount of distortion and compression which is produced by the pedal. Another control lets you adjust the bass/treble response of the pedal's distortion engine.

The Fireball Overdrive 2 has an active, sweepable mid-boost / mid-cut control. Whether you prefer scooped mids, flat mids, a linear frequency response or a large mid-boost - it can be dialed in seamlessly.

The Cold Fusion II
The Cold Fusion Overdrive is a true overdrive that naturally melts with your guitar and amplifier rather than just changing your sound. The pedal has two distinct fields of application: If the Gain control is set at zero the Cold Fusion is providing more than 25dB of clean boost - more than enough to seriously overdrive the preamp tubes of your amplifier and get a natural cranked amp tone.

When you turn the Gain up past 9:00 you can gradually add more and more distortion. The Gain control is a dual pot that controls different parts of the circuit simultaneously, to produce a transparent, warm overdrive at any setting. The Gain knob and the Tone knob are useable throughout their whole range and are capable of producing many shades of overdrive. The spectrum extends from "touch of dirt" to "bluesy tube sound".

Unlike other overdrive pedals the Cold Fusion Overdrive doesn´t have that nasty nasal, midrangey taste to it and it doesn´t lose bottom end when cranked. An impressive crystal clear boost and fat, dirty overdrive sounds are the hallmarks of the pedal. The active tone control lets you cut or boost different parts of the frequency spectrum with no loss. A true bypass with LED indicator instead of a cheap input buffer and a 2,1mm barrel jack 9V connector are standard features with Banzai.

New Rising Sun II
The New Rising Sun is the preamp - pedal that purists of every musical genre had always wished for. It boosts your signal by more than 25 dB. Owners of vintage - like tube amplifiers as well as owners of new mastervolume amplifiers will love the New Rising Sun; your tone will become more dynamical and the sustain will be longer. Your hands won´t have to work so hard anymore to achieve a good tone, because the pedal lets your guitar sound much rounder and bigger.

At higher boost settings the pedal will help you to naturally overdrive the tubes of your amplifier, making your tone sweet and juicy. The boost knob sets the output volume and how hard the preamp tubes are hit. The drive knob has a very subtle but useful effect: It changes the input impedance of the effect. When turned to the left the input impedance rises by a few MegOhms. This will cure the feared "tone sucking" caused by long guitar cables or by other pedals that load the pickups of your guitar. You can dial in the exact spot where your guitar sounds the freshest (the exact spot will vary depending on the combination of guitars, pickups, amps and cables used). No other pedal I know of has this option.

The pedal has two outputs which allows you to split the signal to two amps. At the same time the current draw is only 3 mA, so one battery will last a very long time. The pedal is great for direct line level recording, too.
