BBE Sonic Stomp Pedal Review
March 11th, 2006
I had a buddy when I went to college who used to rip all of his music to his computer and pass it through a BBE Sonic Maximizer plug-in before he would listen to it. He said after listening to the optimized sound he couldn’t go back.
BBE Has introduced their popular rack sound processor in a stomp box format. Naturally through every connection and wire that sound travels between your guitar and your amp it looses quality. The BBE Sonic Stomp is put right before the amp to regenerate that lost sound. It is there to create more fullness, clarity, and presence to the sound of your guitar.
Guitar World reviewed it in their 2006 Holiday Guitar Review Guide and said “The BBE Sonic Maximizer’s patented BBE High Definition Sound process - which helps correct the effects of phase and amplitude distortion, improving music’s punch, presence, definition, and harmonics - is now available in a compact and gig-friendly pedal; the BBE Sonic Stomp. Powered by a nine-volt battery, the sonic stomp packs the same processing chip found in the more expensive, AC-powered units.
The Sonic Stomp gives its biggest and ballsiest performance in the effect loop of a modern channel-switching head. Used in front of the amp (and placed last in the chain, as BBE recommends), the Sonic Stomp adds crunch, crispness and an extra dose of harmonic sparkle to a Fuzz Face, and makes chorus and phasing effects more shimmering and multidimensional. Like its top-of-the-line siblings, the BBE Sonic Stomp makes your guitar sound better, countering the negative impact of amps and long pedal chains.”
