ZVEX Debuts the DB-1 Ultra-High Impedance Analog Meter Pedal

ZVEX Effects DB-1

ZVEX Effects has introduced the ZVEX DB-1, an ultra-high impedance analog meter pedal. The unit, which they call the first of its kind, lets you monitor your level anywhere in your signal chain “without fear of affecting your tone.”

It has a 10-million-ohm input impedance that makes it disappear into the circuit when you play. Its input and output can be swapped, letting it work identically in both directons.

The ZVEX Effects DB-1 is available now for $229.
