The Meinl Effects Pedal brings versatile percussion to your rig with its five pre-programmed sounds: Pop, Doom, SDS, 808 Sub and Soft Kick. Designed for guitarists, keyboardists, vocalists and multi-instrumentalists, this pedal allows you to add rhythmic texture during live performance or in the studio. With an intuitive control interface, it's easy to dial in dynamics and select from its diverse palette of acoustic and electronic beats.

5 Preset Sounds Cover a Wide Range of Genres

The Meinl Effects Pedal comes loaded with five distinct preset sounds to suit different musical contexts. Pop and Doom supply organic, acoustic cajon-style sounds with a natural feel. SDS provides a crisp, snappy drum sound perfect for funk, R&B or pop. The 808 Sub kick thumps with deep low end, ideal for hip hop, house and EDM. Rounding out the selection, Soft Kick offers a mellow bass drum tone. With this versatile variety, you can flavor your playing with rhythmic punctuation across multiple genres.

Hands-Free Operation for Seamless Integration

Since the Meinl Effects Pedal is foot-operated, you can add percussion textures on the fly without interrupting your performance on guitar, keys or vocals. Step on the pedal to turn beats on and off for seamless integration into your live sound. The weighted pedal plate provides stability and responsiveness, delivering excellent dynamics. With its hands-free operation, you can syncopate and groove without missing a note.

Dial in Your Sound With Intuitive Controls

Shape your percussion sounds with the Effects Pedal's easy-to-use control interface. The Volume knob allows you to set your desired output level. Use the Sensitivity control to determine how lightly or strongly you need to step to trigger the sounds. And select from the five presets with the central sound selection knob. Whether you want punchy and present or subtle in the mix, you can customize the pedal's response and sonics to suit your needs.

Convenient Power Options for Portable Use

Thanks to its built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery, the Meinl Effects Pedal provides portable power for gigs and sessions. It includes a USB-C cable so you can conveniently juice up between uses. Or simply connect it to your existing pedalboard power supply. For quick and easy beats anywhere your music takes you, rely on this stompbox's flexible power options.
