The Mooer Blade is designed in a completely different way to the Metal Muff. Besides for the obvious smaller size, the Blade distortion only has three knobs but includes a 3-way toggle switch. The knobs include volume control, tone control and well as a distortion control. The toggle, however, gives you the options of a top boost, a lo boost or the middle function which is no boost. The Mooer Blade does not have an extra switch to engage the boost function, something that the EHX Metal does have. However, in terms of sound, this pedal produces tones similar to that of the Metal Muff as well as the Boss Metal Zone. One of the characteristic elements of the OCD’s clipping is that, when run at 9V, much of the clipping comes from the op-amp itself. The EHX Glove resolves this with an internal charge pump, which bumps the circuit internally from 9V to 18V, from the ‘Super OCD’ modded OCD designed by Fred Briggs. I generally feel that there isn't a dud amongst these - they are all pretty decent sounding pedals, but there are some real star performers here - I think I can best convey that by doing my favourite 5 and then the next 5 in line - listed alphabetically.

The majority of guitar players and gearheads out there are under the impression that the Mooer blue comp is a clone of the Boss CS-2. If I'm honest, it was only until I did some investigating that I discovered this is in fact incorrect. The Mooer Blue comp is actually a clone of the often forgotten about, very rare, and old Boss CS-1 compressor. There are a few characteristics and features of the Mooer Blue compressor that give away the fact that its a CS- clone. 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 learn more towards the Mooer Blade being an Electro-Harmonix clone. For the sake of this Mooer clone list, and due to the fact that my knowledge and experience of metal pedals is limited. I'm going to compare the Mooer Blade and the EH Metal Muff. The Trelicopter is a really good optical trem effects pedal for those on a tight budget. For such a small enclosure, you're able to get quite a diverse range of tremolo sounds. I must point out that this is not your "regular" trem pedal. I find it to be a bit more far out and shoegazy if that makes sense. A fantastic pedal for post-punk and indie guitar-based music. Mooer Trelicopter Volume Drop Mooer's bass graphic equalizer pedal. This is based on the Boss GEB-7, the bass version of Boss's famous graphic eq pedal. However, this is the bass version therefore both the Mooer graphic B as well as the Boss GEB-7 have a different frequency range to that of a regular guitar eq pedal. Lukid: “Dance music can be a bit snobbish about melody - but for me, the marriage of rhythmic and melodic elements is where the magic happens”The Mini Tube Screamer is very close to the full size TS9 tone, although I readily agree that the best overall sounding Tube Screamer is the 808 variety in either its regular format or extended Deluxe / DX version. The One Control Crunch dynamic, responsive to the guitar volume, typical british with his trunk, presence and a nice size bass. The spectrum covered is wide enough and the sound is compressed enough that chord sounds compact and therefore more effective. Means more than an agreement which several notes played together with other OD are sufficiently detached (the Trimode Radial for example).

The Blues crab is more of a clean drive pedal that is merely meant to boost or push the front of a tube amplifier. Either to an amp that is about to break up or an already driven amp. The blues mood, on the other hand, has more gain on tap and can be used to achieve subtle gain to crunch bluesy goodness. Much like the Blues Driver by Boss, the Blues Mood can be used as either a boost pedal by adjusting the gain knob to zero and boosting the volume knob. Or, can be used to achieve the overdriven tube amp sound. This can be achieved by playing around with the gain knob. Both the Blues Mood and the Boss BD-2 make for pretty versatile drive/boost pedals. Especially with the fat switch option. The "Fat Switch" (Inspired by theKeeley Mod) This is indeed a clone of the Big Muff by Electro-Harmonix. All of the characteristics mentioned above about the Mooer. Are those typical tonal characteristics of a class Big Muff. We all know the original muff to be an exceptionally large pedal. And, one this is not pedalboard friendly. For that reason, the Triangle Buff is a good choice as it is quite literally a fraction of the size of a proper Big Muff Fuzz.Okay, where to begin. So, the Mooer Micro ABY is a clone of the EHX Switchblade. Or, I should rather say that it WAS a clone of the Switchblade. You see, Mooer doesn't produce the first version of the Micro ABY. Instead, they stopped making the Micro ABY and released a Micro ABY MK11. Range: lets you play around with the range of the frequency. Moving this range knob to the right spreads the sound of the wah. Whilst moving it to the left closes it up. The sweeper is without a doubt inspired by and based on the EHX bassballs. However, it is not an identical clone. The EHX features only a "distortion" toggle and a resonance knob. Whilst the Mooer allows you to control the intensity, range, and resonance. So on paper, the Mooer has more features and should be the better choice.

The Mooer has the same controls as the Boss however, it is missing an extra mode. This is the "Enhance" mode. If I'm honest, I'm glad Mooer didn't add this as part of the clone. I tend to find this mode on the Boss AC-2 pretty much useless. Take a look at the video below which does a comparison between the Mooer and the Boss. By watching it, you really get to see the tonal differences between these two. When it comes down to it, I have a tough time choosing which one I prefer. I like the sounds of both. The first thing to note about this pedal is its size for many reasons according to our Mooer Hustle Drive Pedal review. Mooer Hustle Drive Pedal is smaller than many “small” pedals that you might have seen.This desire for extra headroom is why the OCD can be run from anything from 9-18V, with the pedal delivering a noticeably different, less compressed sound when run at the higher voltage.
