Mooer Flex Boost, boost pedal, 2.25 x 4.25 x 1.75"

Product Information

The Mooer Fog along with the Woolly Mammoth is like no other fuzz tones I have heard. A lot say you can get them to sound like Big Muff pedals. But I disagree. The Mooer Fog delivers a synth-like type of fuzz. Also, the words “snarly” as well as, “nasally” come to mind when I hear these pedals. At times, the sound tends to remind me of bit-crusher sounds. I know that there are many bass guitar players out there that swear by both the Mooer Fog as well as the Zvex Woolly Mammoth. I must be honest, I do not enjoy the sound of this pedal in general. The Mooer Fog along with the Woolly Mammoth is like no other fuzz tones I have heard.

I must be honest, I do not enjoy the sound of this pedal in general. But what is the LoFi machine? it is a pedal that reduces the sample rate and depth, with a range from 60Hz all the way up to 31250Hz And, 5bit all the up to 16 bits parameter for controlling the depth of the sample… Thus, resulting bit-crusher type of sound. The LoFi Machine has three knobs along with a 3-way toggle switch. The three knobs on this pedal include: The actual OCD sounds more like a real tube amp to me. It also sounds more alive when compared to the Hustle Drive. The OCD is also a bit more bright whilst the Hustle Drive seems to compress more. And thus, it sounds slightly darker. Furthermore, the OCD seems to have a lot more headroom and dynamic in sound as well as the way it responds. I go really in-depth on my OCD pedal comparison here. Vintage: Based off of the 1974 Phase 90, often referred to as the “Script” version because of its script-like font.

Mooer - Flex Boost Pedal

The Mooer Fog is actually a bass pedal. But 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 guitar pedal has three knobs which include depth, bias, and speed. Each knob does the following to the sound of the tremolo: 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. Q: The "Q" knob is quite misleading but it basically just lets you play with how intense you want the wah effect to be. This knob initially led me to believe that the Funky Monkey was a clone of the EHX Qtron pedal. Which is actually pretty plausible come to think of it now, seeing as though the Qtron is also an automatic wah pedal. 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.Some of the best boost pedals, overdrive pedals and preamp pedals on the market are by Xotic effects. By making some of the best of these types of pedals, most of the Xotic effects pedals come with a pretty hefty price tag. Mooer pedals, however, have created a suitable clone of this awesome AC Booster pedal by Xotic effects. This happens to be 1/2 Mooer clones of the Xotic booster pedals. So this review is on the Mooer Flex boost and, down below you'll find a review of the Mooer Pure Boost. There are some definite differences between them. There's no real scenario where one can justify the price of the Woolly Mammoth when the Mooer Fog does literally exactly the same thing. However, even though the Mooer fog is definitely more affordable, it's hard for me to find a need (besides for if I were the bass player in a Muse cover band) to buy or make use of this pedal. It's worth pointing out that the Zvex has a built-in gate which can be engaged by playing with the "pinch" knob. I'm almost certain the Mooer doesn't have this gate function although I could be very very wrong.

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. 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 The worlds greatest electric guitar player, Jimi Hendrix used a silicon Fuzz Face. And, if achieving a similar tone to Jimi is what you're after, I suggest starting with one of these. Now, the Silicon Fuzz face is still available on the market today. Despite having gone through different companies, Dunlop now makes these in pretty much the same fashion as the old ones. They can, however, become quite costly. But, the Mooer Blue Faze is a particularly good clone for a budget pedal. 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. The difference between these two pedals is that the Boss has a completely different layout. The Mooer Pitch Box has one knob which controls the Pitch. Along with a 3-way toggle switch which does actually maintain some of the same modes as found on the Boss PS-5. Such as Harmony, Pitch Shift, and Detune mode. Whereas the Boss PS-5 has essentially 4 knobs (5 if you want to get technical) which include: Balance knob, Key selection knob, Pitch knob, and a mode selector knob which allows the choice between5 different modes including harmonist, pitch shift, detune, T. Arm and flutter.I like the overall naturalness of the chorus sound I get from the Mooer Ensemble. Many other cheaper Chinese clone pedals tend to produce a tiny and thin chorus tone which I don't like. The Mooer Ensemble king does not do this, and that is why I think it is such a great clone. It's pretty tough, I would imagine, to recreate such a legendary Boss pedal. But, Mooer does it really well with this pedal. I must definitely point out that the Flex Boost has got some grit to it. As soon as you start to turn the gain knob up from zero, you can hear some light and pleasant overdrive. How does it compare to the AC Booster? It comes pretty darn close to the real thing. However, as is the case with a lot of clone pedals, they just miss out on not sounding quite as “organic” as the originals. Still, a great sounding low-gain boost/overdrive pedal. 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 POG Tube Screamer clone pedals are a dime a dozen nowadays. In fact, the market is completely flooded with Tub screamer type clones. In my opinion, however, very few pedal manufacturers have managed to nail the TS clone down at an affordable price. Mooer pedals along with Joyo pedals make two of the best tube screamer clones out there. Whilst the Joyo clones the TS808, this Mooer Green Mile clones the just as legendary and famous, TS-9.

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.The Blue Comp by Mooer has a toggle which 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. 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.

So how am I sure this is not a clone? There are two massive dead giveaways that tell me this isn’t a Boss clone. Firstly, the frequencies are completely different from the Boss. Secondly, the Mooer is a 5 band EQ whilst the Boss is a 7 band eq. Here is a closer look at the difference in frequencies between Graphic B and the GEB-7: I've mentioned before in another article that the Boss CE-2 Chorus pedal is my all time favorite chorus pedal. This is due to the fact that my guitar idols from the 80's used this very pedal. Boss unfortunately no longer make this version of the Boss CE-2. In fact, the pedal has been discontinued for quite some time. For that reason, my original Made In Japan CE-2 has become an item of value. At close inspection, it is easy to see that they Mooer Funky Monkey is laid out pretty different from that of the AW-2. However, this is certainly to be expected considering the small size of the Mooer. That being said, let’s look at how the Boss AW-2 is laid out and then note the differences son the Funky Monkey. 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.Secondly, The fonts of each of the Mooer pedals match up to the originals. From here it’s quite easy to tell which pedals they’re cloning. The world’s greatest electric guitar player, Jimi Hendrix used a silicon Fuzz Face. And, if achieving a similar tone to Jimi is what you’re after, I suggest starting with one of these. Now, the Silicon Fuzz face is still available on the market today. Despite having gone through different companies, Dunlop now makes these in pretty much the same fashion as the old ones.

However, as is the case with a lot of clone pedals, they just miss out on not sounding quite as "organic" as the originals. Still, a great sounding low-gain boost/overdrive pedal. I’d love to be able to explain the ins and outs of how this ABY by Mooer pedals works. However, I have very little knowledge and experience using this pedal, and ABY pedals in general. It is more of a utilitarian pedal as opposed to an effects pedal. I hope to gain some experience in the near future with this Mooer pedal and update this section accordingly when I have. There’s an obvious disparity in the way each of these bass eq pedals was designed. However, one cool feature about both of these pedals is that they have a level adjustment. This enables you to add a volume boost to your eq, or you can just use it as a clean volume boost.
