The Electro-Harmonix Pico Platform packs the studio-style dynamics control of its full-sized predecessor into a stripped-down, super-compact stompbox. Retaining Compressor and Limiter modes for maximum flexibility, this guitar effects pedal arms you with selectable Hard Knee and Soft Knee compression curves. The Pico Platform's four knobs enable you to fine-tune your dynamics with razor-sharp precision; thanks to its Blend control, you'll find that you can dial in some pretty aggressive compression without muffling your attack. Guitarists searching for ultra-transparent processing will appreciate the Pico Platform's coloration-free sound. Of course, if it's hyper-squashed tones you're after, this pico-sized stompbox will be happy to oblige. In short, the EHX Pico Platform supplies pro-level dynamics sculpting without hogging your pedalboard.
The Pico Platform packs a lot of dynamics control into an unassuming, 4-knob guitar pedal. In fact, many of the guitarists here at Music Experience have found it to be as effective as an expensive rackmount unit in a wide range of applications. For starters, you get both Compressor and Limiter modes. The Pico Platform's Sustain knob adjusts your Compressor ratio or Limiter threshold, while its Attack knob controls your attack time. The Volume knob controls your overall output level. You also get a Blend knob to adjust your dry/wet ratio. Complete with Hard Knee and Soft Knee compression curves, the EHX Pico Platform allows you to fit studio-quality compression onto all but the most crowded of pedalboards.
Tape delay is loved for its warmth and charming imperfections compared to pristine digital delays. Their preamps could be pushed to saturation and, over time, the tape in vintage delay units would degrade causing a signature warble loved by many. These signature elements are captured and packed into Electro-Harmonix’s Pico Rerun tape delay. Based off the tape delay algorithm found in the Canyon Delay & Looper, the Rerun gives vintage vibes with modern features. The Rerun features a simple control set and tap tempo for ease of use in any situation. BLEND sets the wet/dry blend. DELAY adjusts the delay time from 8ms to 3s. SAT adds tape saturation and distortion for added crunch to only the wet signal, keeping your dry signal unaffected by the added distortion. FDBK sets the level of repeats from 1 to infinite for runaway oscillation. You can also press and hold the footswitch to engage infinite repeats in an instant. The FLUTTER mode switch toggles between low, medium, and heavy modulation effects ranging from slight chorusing to seasick thickness. Tap Tempo is simple and easy to use. Just press and release the footswitch at least two times to set the tempo and the LED will blink to confirm your tap tempo. Additionally, the Rerun also features selectable Tails bypass allowing echoes to continue after putting the pedal into bypass.
