MXR CSP042 Third Man Hardware Double Down Pedal

MXR and Third Man Hardware have teamed up to create the perfect booster MXR CSP042 Third Man Hardware Double Down Pedal for gigging guitar players. The MXR CSP042 Third Man Hardware Double Down Pedal combines two separate MXR Micro Amp circuits into a single box so that you can heat up two separate signal chains with just the right amount of classic Micro Amp bump.

The MXR CSP042 Third Man Hardware Double Down Pedal single input jack splits your signal to two separate outputs, each with its own Gain control for up to +26dB of signal-boosting power. On the left side of the housing is a Phase switch that adds a pronounced stereophonic effect by inverting the phase of the second output signal. On the right side of the pedal is a Buffer switch so that you can choose between true bypass—for the purists—and buffered bypass switching to keep your sound intact when driving two signal chains.

MXR CSP042 Third Man Hardware Double Down Features:

• Designed by MXR in collaboration with Third Man Hardware to create the ideal boost pedal for gigging guitarists
• 2 independent MXR Micro Amp circuits packed into a single box for double the boosting power
• Each Micro Amp circuit delivers up to +26dB of gain to push your amp or turn up the volume on low-output pickups
• Single input with each of the 2 outputs connected to a separate Micro Amp boost circuit — great for driving 2 separate signal chains
• Phase switch inverts the phase of the 2nd output signal, resulting in a distinct stereophonic effect
• Buffer switch allows you to swap between true bypass and buffered bypass

Two independent boost circuits

One input, two outputs, and two knobs: the Double Down is a simple yet exceptionally powerful pedal that allows you to drive two separate signal chains simultaneously. While the Double Down provides myriad uses for gigging and recording musicians, Guitarists have found that it’s a must-have tool when looking to crank up the heat on a stereo amplifier rig.

Double the switches

In addition to its boost capabilities, the Double Down also comes with two different side switches to tweak your setup: Phase and Buffer. For guitarists who are picky about the purity of their signal chain, the Buffer switch allows you to swap between a buffered bypass and an ultra-clean true bypass. Plus, the Phase switch flips the phase of the second output signal for a distinct stereophonic tone that experimental tone chasers will be sure to love.
