Mit immer kleiner werdenden Pedalboards und Pedalen wird die Nachfrage nach Versionen beliebter Pedale mit kleinerem Fußabdruck immer größer. Der TightRock Jr. verfügt über die meisten Funktionen seines großen Bruders und verwendet die gleiche Schaltung, Es wurden jedoch einige Features weggelassen, die viele Gitarristen nicht benötigen, um Größe und Gewicht zu reduzieren. Dieses Pedal kann sogar als Vorverstärker direkt in den Effekt-Return- oder Endstufen-Eingang von Verstärkers verwendet werden. Abgeleitet von der Pro-Serie wurden die Tight-Regler und Fat-Schalter in einen 3-Wege Fat / Normal / Tight-Schalter umkonfiguriert, um das Attack von on dick und heavy zu aggressiv und clunky zu verändern. Ein EQ-Schalter bietet Plexi / Normal / Smooth-Klangeinstellungen, die dazu beitragen, dass der TightRock Jr. Großteil der Bandbreite seines Pro-Series Bruders abdeckt. Das einstellbare Noise Gate, gibt dir die Möglichkeit Noten schnell und hart abzustoppen kann. Und das Tolle an einem eingebauten Noise Gate ist, dass es verschwindet, wenn Sie das Pedal im Bypass ist ... damit dein Clean Tone nicht beeinträchtigt wird!

With ever-shrinking pedalboard real estate, a recent common theme are smaller footprint versions of popular pedals. The TightRock Jr. shares most of the features of its larger counterpart, and uses the same circuitry, while eliminating some features most players don't need in order to shrink down the size and weight. This pedal can even be used as a preamp, by running the output straight into the amp's effects return or power amp input. Derived from the Pro series, the Tight control and Fat switches were re-configured into a 3-position Fat/Normal/Tight switch to dial in the attack of the notes from thick and heavy to aggressive and chunky. An EQ switch similarly provides Plexi/Normal/Smooth tone settings, which helps the pedals cover much of the range of its Pro parents. The manually-adjustable Noise Gate can be cranked to stop notes hard and fast. And the great thing about a built-in noise gate is that it goes away when you turn the pedal off...so your clean tone is unaffected!

Tight Rock Jr

	
Amp Tweaker are renowned for their brilliant drive pedals. Establishing this reputation is not easy in such a competitive market, and to stay ahead of the game they have introduced a raft of Jr. pedals. Boasting the same amazing tones that we love about Amp Tweaker, these pedals are in a smaller, more pedalboard-friendly enclosure.
All the Essentials:
The Tight Fuzz Jr. takes the essential features of its larger counterparts, ensuring that no tone is sacrificed. The Tight/Normal/Fat switch lets you adjust the attack and response of the fuzz. If you want a thick and heavy fuzz tone then the Fat mode will provide, whereas the Normal mode delivers a full-bodied, chunky sound with plenty of character. Switch to the Tight setting to shelve some low-end, giving you a more aggressive tone that will cut through in busy mixes with a crisp bite.
As Versatile As You’d Ever Want:
A 60’s/70’s/Now switch gves you further tonal options. You can go from a classic Hendrix-style fuzz bark, to a more modern and saturated tone that works as well for rhythm tones as it does for leads. Essentially an EQ switch, you can also adjust your sound using the conventional Tone control, allowing you to brighten the fuzz the higher you crank it up!
A Germanium/Silicon switch gives you the best of both worlds. Often argued by Fuzz junkies, changing these output transistors lets you affect the warmth and top-end of the fuzz, meaning you will have no problem “tweaking” the pedal for the perfect fuzz sound. See what I did there?
Here's what Amp Tweaker say about the Tight Fuzz Jr. Pedal:
With the popularity of Amptweaker's smaller footprint JR series, we're now adding bass and guitar versions of our Fuzz pedals....introducing TightFuzz JR?, Bass TightFuzz JR?, BluesFuzz JR?, and Bass BluesFuzz Jr?. These pedals share most of the tone-tweaking features available on their larger counterparts, while eliminating effects loops, lit controls, battery switches and boost features that some players don’t need in order to shrink down the size and weight.
Derived from our Pro series, the Tight control and Fat switches were re-configured into a 3-position Fat/Normal/Tight switch to dial in the attack of the notes from thick and heavy to aggressive and chunky. On the TightFuzz models, an EQ switch provides 60's, 70's, or 'Now' tones, and there's also a Germanium/Silicon switch to change the output transistor for warmer or brighter/high gain distortion. The same automatically adjusted bias on the Fuzz controls keeps the sweet spot at hand, and is especially nice for cleaner tones. And of course the popular Dry Low control is included on the Bass TightFuzz JR.

Der TightDrive Jr reicht vom cleanen Boost bis zu mäßig hohem Gain. Er enthält ein Noise Gate und einen Tight Attack Switch. Mit immer kleiner werdenden Pedalboards wird die Nachfrage nach Pedals mit kleinerem Fußabdruck immer - das Resultat ist der Amptweaker TightDrive Jr . Dieses Pedal verfügt über die meisten Funktionen, die auf den größeren TightDrives zu finden sind und verwendet die gleiche Schaltung, während einige Features weggelassen wurden, die viele Gitarristen nicht benötigen, um Größe und Gewicht zu reduzieren. Abgeleitet von der Pro-Serie wurden der Tight-Regler- und Fat-Schalter in einen 3-Wege-Fat / Normal / Tight-Schalter umkonfiguriert, um das Attack von dick und heavy zu aggressiv und chunky zu verändern. Ein EQ-Schalter bietet Plexi / Normal / Smooth-Einstellungen, was dazu beiträgt, dass der TightDrive Jr einen Großteil der Bandbreite seines Pro-Series Bruders abdeckt. Zusätzlich zu den Gain-, Tone- und Volume-Reglern gibt es ein manuell anpassbares Noise Gate, mit dem du Noten schnell und hart abstoppen kannst. Und das Tolle an einem eingebauten Noise Gate ist, dass es verschwindet, wenn Sie das Pedal in Bypass schaltest ...damit dein Clean Tone nicht beeinträchtigt wird!

TightDrive Jr

The DepthFinder is an active boost-only EQ pedal that simulates the tube amp Resonance and Presence controls, but without having to be done in the power amp. This means you can use it with an amp that doesn’t have Resonance and Presence, by patching it in the effects loop. It also works great for building a pedalboard direct signal, since that low damping factor is a key ingredient to the overall tone. It can easily make a solid state amp sound and feel more like a tube amp, and can actually widen the bandwidth since it boosts at very low and very high frequencies.

DepthFinder

Designed by iconic high-gain amp guru James Brown, the Tight Drive redefines the boundaries of the standard “overdrive” with enhanced tone sculpting and advanced tone stacks. The Tight Drive provides everything from a nuanced push to the front end of the amp all the way to heavy overdrive/distortion and all points in between. Exceptionally responsive and detailed, the Tight Drive comes with a built-in noise gate, three-way tone stack and controls for volume, tone, and gain.

Perfect in both size and function, the Tight Drive is a welcome addition to any pedalboard.
