I'm a huge fan of RAT style pedals, and this one sounds admittedly on indicate merely with a much lower noise flooring and only minimal popping from the switch when you appoint the pedal - it has way less popping and hum than any other Rat style pedal I've tried, with the exception of the 'Difficult' setting on the Strymon Sunset. That said, the noise floor is lower on the Magus Pro and so information technology's an absolute winner in my book.

Besides, the 3 modes requite it a ton of versatility, and it sounds pretty decent at lower gain settings too (though not as good as the Jam Pedals Rattler, which has magical depression gain tones and - overall - probably sounds fractionally meliorate if y'all were to dorsum-to-back them). And though the Rattler'due south dissonance floor is fifty-fifty lower than the Magus Pro, the switch pop is significantly louder and it's 3x the cost.

Lastly, the Magus Pro is very small, and congenital like a tank. At $, information technology'due south an accented steal, and it's making me wonder what other awesomeness TC Electronic is kick out at this price point. Can't recommend it highly plenty.

I accept a Wampler Ratsbane... "Boutique." Yes. Why the heck would I buy the Magus Pro??? To be fair, I've just begun getting into the rat sound. I loved the model off my Digitech RP360 so I knew I needed to purchase this excursion for real! I figured I'd go with the Ratsbane because it's so highly regarded. But that was like going into advanced calculus when I really needed to accept algebra. I could've gotten the proco rat, but a iii way TC version of the rat for the same price was too tempting. Long story brusque, after comparing it with the Wampler pedal for a skilful hour, I realized the toll of the TC is a ridiculous bargain. When you pay for the bazaar pedal, you're paying for an obscene amount of boosted gain and an the pick to morph the entire circuit on summit of having three modes. TC Magus Pro was really easy to utilize right off the bat with three very distinct sounds. And the range on the knobs is very user friendly. This pedal really helped me to figure out how to dial in my Ratsbane. Best buy of this year, for sure!

Well. You've done information technology over again! Astonishing pedal t that has an amazing range of tones. Doesn't get muddied when you plough the gain all the style up and sounds great an in overdrive as well. Information technology stacks well with the pedals and is super quiet.. The turbo fashion is absolutely amazing. Bang-up job. Manus downwards beats all others. Beats the major "boutique " rattus norvegicus" versions.

I vowed to buy a new metal pedal this year. Wanted good value to sound ratio, and man I got information technology. The Magus is new inspiration to write more driblet tuned madness...it is magic for the price.

This has been a great addition to my rig. Very versatile tone stack and pedal retains great dynamics at most of the gain range. Lucas Norton was fantastic in keeping me up to engagement while the pandemic related aircraft delays were ongoing and got my lodge out to me earlier than expected. Cheers Lucas and Sweetwater!
