EHX Founder and President, Mike Matthews, talks with Music & Sound Retailer Editor, Dan Ferrisi, about everything from being friends with a young Jimmy James (Jimi Hendrix) to his leadership role at the helm of Electro-Harmonix today.

We’ve created a convenient, secure way to mount any of the Next Step Effects pedals to a pedalboard. The new Pedalboard Cradle is custom-designed of a lightweight, durable polymer. Measuring 8.875 x 4.375 x 0.625 inches, it adheres to a pedalboard with hook and loop fastener and the pedal rocks freely and securely within the cradle. When the musician is ready to pack up their pedalboard, a security strap locks down the Next Step Effect for transport.

The Electro-Harmonix line of Next Step Effects consists of the Crying Tone Wah, Expression Pedal, Pan Pedal, Talking Pedal and Volume Pedal.

Creating on the new 45000 Multi-Track Looping Recorder is quick and intuitive, and one of the ways to make your music really sparkle is by adding drums. That’s why we’ve put together a collection of drum loops especially for the 45000 that cover a slew of different styles and genres.

Current 45000 owners can download the drum loops here. It’s free and easy. All future 45000s will include them.

Mr. Effectology, Bill Ruppert, shows how to incorporate these new loops into your recordings. Check out his quick video:

Here is a video to audition the loops:

Indie music phenomenon, Jack Conte, has created an extraordinary new music video entitled PEDALS.

Here is a behind the scenes look at the making of this video:

With the Stereo Electric Mistress, lush flanging and chorus come together. Use it in stereo for the richest modulations or in mono as bass ace, Mahlon Hawk, does here.
