So MXR makes a Foxx Tone Machine now?

Post by woolyh »

Don't know how I missed this... Apparently already being sold so has anyone tried one yet?

Foxx only recently discontinued the Tone Machine so I wonder if they did a deal with MXR/Jeorge Tripps :idea:

I seem to recall fOXX posting on their website that they were for sale a while ago. I'm not surprised one of the big companies decided to buy them up, fOXX is a pretty classic name. What I really want to see is if MXR re-releases the Fuzz Wah and the Foot Phaser as well, or if it was just for the Tone Machine.

Those are only available in Europe I believe. MXR doesn't plan to release it in the US according to a thread on TGP.
Good deals on ILF: too many to list, just ask!

That is horrible news.

Good thing I have a Tone Machine clone already.

Is this actually confirmed? People on TGP convinced themselves that the MXR Joe Bonamassa FET Driver was a Europe exlcusive and then a week later they started selling them in the States :lol:

LaoWiz makes one that's badass with footswitchable octave. Soooooo mean sounding! Here's mine for reference:

Not selling it in the US seems like bad business. Can't see any advantage to that marketing plan... :?:

"I sent MXR an email. The pedal is only available in Europe, Japan and Australia. They said if it sells really well then it might be released in the US."

Octave on a footswitch is a must!

Saw some brief mention of that and that only European dealers seemed to have it. Product info was incredibly limited as to what it was cloning so I stopped caring much.

Why not go full Prescription Electronics Experience clone with not just the octave footswitchable but also the swell mode? Other FTM's may well sound better, but that's the pinnacle of capability. And MXR/Dunlop are certainly not above lifting circuits from other companies.
