The AXiom Overdrive Preamp OP-1 was designed to be the most capable, versatile, yet simple to use 100% analog overdrive pedal available.  It can go from a transparent boost to a traditionally-voiced overdrive to a high-gain preamp with the turn of a few dials.

The OP-1 is equally at home driving a tube amp into saturation as it is at making a sterile solid-state amp sound like a cranked tube head or a warm old tweed.  From country to blues to rock to metal, the OP-1 was designed to be the ultimate analog overdrive/preamp pedal.

Overdrive Preamp OP-1

Meet the AXiom Classic Compressor CC-1.  It's a dual OTA-based feedback type compressor pedal that was developed specifically to bridge the gap between the organic response of the classic stompbox compressors and the precision and features of a studio compressor.  It reacts to your playing just like the best Dyna Comp/Ross/CS-2 pedals did, but has extended control ranges and independent true ATTACK, RELEASE, RATIO/BLEND, SENSITIVITY (threshold), INPUT, TONE and GAIN controls.  You can go from mild, transparent optical-like compression (with your tone and pick attack completely preserved) to all-out squash and sustain beyond what even the best of the classics could produce (thanks to its dual parallel compression engines).  It has an INPUT control that allows you to tailor the response to any pickup from low-output single coils to the hottest active humbuckers, a TONE control tuned to enhance or reduce pick attack and "air", a GAIN stage with enough output to push your amp or other pedals, and it has none of the "pumping" effect that feedback type compressors are prone to when they have their attack set high (which is why the attack is often set permanently fast internally in these type of compressors).

This is a pedal for the pros.  The AXiom XFMR Boost XB-1 is the industry's first analog transformer emulator boost/buffer pedal to precisely recreate the harmonic profile and frequency response of high-nickel to steel core transformers.  Why settle for a simple clean boost or buffer pedal when you can have one that lets you dial in transformer "color", as desired?

More is more... and less is more too.  It's no accident that the DP-1 excels at both.  Specifically designed to produce the lightest break-up all the way up to as much distortion and "chug" as you could ever want, the DP-1 is possibly the most capable and versatile 100% analog distortion pedal on the market.  It has superb picking clarity and tracking, singing sustain, can produce both the tightest and fattest distortion you've ever heard (at the same time, if that's what you want), and you can back it off to produce a transparent grit that cleans up completely with your guitar's volume knob.

Distortion Preamp DP-1

The late 1970s and early '80s produced some legendary flangers.  Those effects utilized bucket brigade device (BBD) chips that allowed them to produce super wide delay sweeps from 15ms all the way down to 0.4ms (about the limit of perception by the human ear).  Unfortunately, by the mid '80s those BBDs were out of production and since then most analog flangers have been limited to minimum delay times of well-above 1ms.  Some perfectly fine flangers have been made with those limitations, but truly versatile flanging requires more.

Simply put, the AXiom Flange-Chorus FC-1 was designed to be the most powerful 100% analog flanger ever made.  You don't have to spend a fortune on a vintage flanger to get the performance standards of the analog glory days, you don't have to go digital to get the advanced control you want, and you don't have to buy another pedal to get a first-class chorus along with it.
