Two major red flags stand out to me in an instant when determining whether or not this is, in fact, a clone. Red flag number 1 is that the Max GE-601 is a 6 band eq. Whilst, the Mooer Graphic G is very clearly a 5 band eq. Red flag number two can be found when comparing the frequencies of each of the two pedals. The Maxon has different frequencies to the Mooer. Here are the differences in frequencies between the Mooer and the Maxon: Mooer Audio have made sure the blues sound has been covered by adding yet another blues-style overdrive pedal to their range of clones. This time, Mooer have the Blues Mood pedal, which is a clone of the famous and extremely popular, Boss Blues Drive BD-2. However, Mooer didn’t just stop there. No, in fact, they went a step further and cloned the Boss Blues Driver with the legendary Keeley Fat mod. The Blue Comp by Mooer has a toggle that lets you select between “Treble” and “Normal”. In the past, Boss had made the CS-1 with this toggle. Which is the first indication of it being a clone.

Flex Boost - Mooer Flex Boost - Audiofanzine

This list, as I have already mentioned, features two clones of Xotic effects Booster pedals. First being the flex boost and second is this one. The Pure Boost. The Xotic pedals are known to be pretty expensive. So if you are after that pedal on a budget. Then, the Mooer Audio is a great option for you. This pedal is a clean boost first and foremost. Whilst this is a transparent pedal, there are volume, bass, treble and gain controls which allow you to expand the sound that this pedal produces. I am in no way saying the Mooer Cruncher is not a good pedal, however. It just does not match up to the Crunch Box, or the Angry Charlie which is another similar type of distortion pedal. Having said that, the Mooer Cruncher still has some decent applications and, when dialed incorrectly, can achieve low, medium and high-ish gain tones. Mooer Cruncher Vs MI Audio Crunch Box I’ll start off by saying that I don’t believe this is a clone of any pedal. Let alone the Boss. However, many people seem to believe it is so I will succumb to saying it is at the very least inspired by the boss octave pedals. This pedal shifts the pitch of the sound and allows for the mixing of both the high octaves as well as the sub-octaves alongside your dry guitar sound. This gives you an almost POG-like sound in terms of the way it reacts. Furthermore, it can deliver organ sounds if you tweak it correctly. Mooer Pure Octave Vs POGBoss DM-2 is definitely one of the most classic Boss guitar effects pedals from the early days of the compact stomp boxes. This Boss DM-2 is still an exceptionally sought after pedal. Especially due to the fact that Boss stopped making them for a very long time. It is only now in recent times that they’ve reissued these. Before then, it was hard to get your hands on this epic analog delay. That was until Mooer created this great clone. The Ana Echo analog delay is the Mooer mini version of the DM-2 by Boss. These are both analog delays with. However, I’d say that the Boss DM-2 sounds more natural to my ear. There’s also a certain organic decay that the Boss has which the Mooer doesn’t. This is such a minor detail that most people won’t ever notice. The blue comp is a more complex pedal than the yellow one. The blue comp has an extra two-way toggle switch which allows for more tweaking of your sound. I talk about what the toggle does above. The Yellow one, on the other hand, is a simple three-knob comp pedal and in my opinion, delivers one of the best sounds from any cheap comp pedal I’ve ever tried. If you’re not sure which one is for you, my advice would be to go for the yellow comp. The Grey Faze is a really decent clone of the Dunlop Germanium fuzz face. I’ve tried a lot of budget and cheaper fuzz pedals that all land up sounding too fizzy for my liking. This is not the case with the grey faze. As I like the sound of this pedal a lot. And, despite it only having two controls, I find it to be pretty versatile. That is thanks to the fact that the actual “Fuzz” knob on this pedal is super responsive. And by adjusting it, you’re able to achieve a wide array of sounds.

MOOER Audio MOOER Audio

If you’re wondering if the Mooer Blade distortion is really a clone of the massive EHX Metal Muff. you can be at ease knowing that it is indeed a clone of this very pedal. In my opinion, it is nothing short of genius how Mooer managed to turn such a large pedal into such a mini clone. There does, however, seem to be a fair bit of debate surrounding the fact that the Mooer Blade could be a Boss Metal Zone. The consensus does seem to lean more towards the Mooer Blade being an Electro-Harmonix clone. For the sake of this list, and due to the fact that my knowledge and experience of metal pedals are limited. I’m going to compare the Mooer Blade and the EH Metal Muff. The Mooer Fog is actually a bass pedal. But it can definitely be used on the guitar, too. Apparently, this Mooer pedal is a clone of the Zvex Woolly Mammoth (also a bass pedal). The pedal Features 4 knobs which include; tone, volume, fuzz, and squeeze. The “Squeeze” parameter is where you can craft your own fuzz sound and can be related to the “pinch” knob on the actual Zvex Woolly Mammoth. The Sound Of The Fog Fuzz Mooer Pedal? This pedal is based on the classic and world-famous, Boss DS-1. However, it is a clone with a twist. This is in actual fact, based on the DS-1 with the Keeley Modification. The Mooer, like the Keeley, modded DS-1 comes with a three-way toggle switch. The Keeley doesn’t say what each toggle does. But, the Mooer outlines them as follows:So what is the Mooer Flex Boost? Well, it’s one of the closest sounding clone pedals of the AC booster by Xotic effects that I’ve come by. Whilst the Mooer Flex Boost and the AC Booster have the word “boost” in their name, it is actually important to note that both of these pedals are in fact overdrive pedals. All of those are truly great minis and stand up well against pretty much everything at this size, even against larger enclosure types. These two pedals may seem similar because they are both echo-based delay pedals. However, they are actually quite different. The Ecolizer has a longer delay time compared to the ana echo. It has a maximum of 600ms whilst the ana only has 300ms maximum. For me, they Echolizer wins over the Ana Echo. However, if you’re looking to replace the Boss Dm-2 then the Ana Echo is for you. I am so glad that Mooer has released a pedal that is a clone of the original Marshall Blues Breaker pedal. I mean, Marshall does have a newer V2 of the Blues breaker but it is not quite like the original. To my ears, I’d say that the Mooer Blues Crab is even closer to the sound of the Vintage Marshall Blues Breaker pedals than that of the actual Marshall BB-2. Finding that original blues breaker tone was difficult until Mooer released the Blues crab. The Eleclady makes for a great clone of this awesome EHX pedal. However, there are definitely some slight tonal differences between these two pedals. You’ll find the Mooer Eleclady to give you more top end. Whilst, the Electric Mistress is definitely mellower and more “organic” sounding in terms of the analog flanger. One huge and obvious difference between the two is the size difference. The original EHX electric Mistress is absolutely massive and I’d consider it not pedalboard-friendly at all. The Mooer, on the other hand, is perfect for the pedalboard. Having said that, Electro-Harmonix does make a newer, and smaller version of the classic Electric Mistress.
