Reacting exactly like a great tube amp, the newly designed AC Booster V2 offers a wide range of overdrive with touch sensitivity just like the original AC Booster.

The AC V2 Booster redefines expressive overdrive with its amp-like touch sensitivity, delivering a dynamic and organic playing experience. Whether you’re after a warm, bluesy breakup or a harmonically rich drive, the AC V2 responds to your picking attack and volume adjustments with unparalleled nuance.

Key Features

  • Dedicated Boost Switch – The AC Booster V2 comes equpied with an added boost with independant level control, after the AC Booster for even more gain and volume. 
  • Even More Control – Perhaps the biggest change to V2 is the addition of the Dip Switches found on the side of the AC Booster V2. Shape your tone even further with even more control of your EQ, gain structure, and compression level.
  • 9-18v – Use with a standard 9v pedal power or double up to 18v for even more headroom and a enhanced top end!

In the current JustPedals catalogue, Xotic is represented by Boost Pedals, Wah & Filter Pedals and Volume Pedals. Current listings include XW-1 Wah, SL Drive and EP Booster. That makes the range relevant to players looking for drive, gain and clipping, plus modelling, direct rigs and multi-effects. Check each model for its exact circuit or processing platform, controls, power requirements and connections, particularly where the catalogue includes both pedals and supporting gear.

Boost Pedals

Boost pedals raise signal level, add gain, or do both. A clean boost leaves most of the source voice alone and pushes the next stage harder; a coloured boost changes the frequency balance as it lifts the level, while a treble or mid boost can deliberately narrow the emphasis. Gain, output, tone, presence and headroom determine whether the pedal works as an always-on preamp or a solo lift. Placement matters: before an overdrive it increases clipping, after it mainly increases level, and into a clean amp it may simply make the rig louder.

True Bypass

True bypass removes the effect circuit from the audio path when bypassed, usually by mechanical, relay or switching circuitry. This can preserve the direct signal but does not automatically solve long-cable loading, and it may create a pop or leave no buffer for the rest of the board. Check the actual switching method, trails or spillover, input and output loading and the number of other true-bypass pedals in the chain.
