The TC Electronic Magus Pro has you covered for all your distortion needs – whether you’re after classic valve amp style heat, a fatter, fuzzy vibe or maxed out firepower. The three-way tone selection gives you loads of room to dial in your own unique tone.

Key Features

  • Classic high gain distortion pedal with specially designed circuitry that recreates the slow slew rate of the infamous LM308 op-amp
  • Treble filter control shapes top-end bite
  • 3 different modes deliver classic, turbo and fat iterations of this legendary distortion circuit 
  • Classic mode produces punchy mids and tight bottom end
  • Turbo mode engages LED clipping diodes for greater headroom and more output level
  • Fat mode gives the bass a boost and reshapes the upper mids for an ultimate rock tone
  • Evenly balanced harmonic resonance produces effortless sustain and musical feedback at high gain settings
  • All-analog circuit produces rich warm tones

On top of the fantastic tonal options, the Magus Pro is a super solid stompbox ready to slide into any setup. True bypass circuitry means your existing tone remains intact with the Magus Pro turned off in the chain. The top mounted jacks also make it easy to slot into your pedalboard configuration.

Versatile Classic Analog Distortion

If you’ve ever needed a Classic Analog High Gain Distortion Pedal but been unable to find one with enough versatility to suit any scenario, the MAGUS PRO will be a very welcome surprise for you. Its slow slew rate, treble filter control and three different modes of operation provide more than enough variance in approach and tone to compliment any playing style.

Slow Slew Circuitry

We’ve specially designed a circuit to recreate the classic slow slew of the infamous LM308 op-amp using readily available modern components. By keeping the slew rate slow, harsh unwanted harmonic overtones and interference are eliminated, leaving you with a smooth layer of pure distortion whilst cranking the gain.

A Filter That Trebles Your Needs

One particularly distinctive feature of the MAGUS PRO is the Treble Filter control. It’s an extremely effective Hi-cut filter, allowing you to totally tailor your top end bite.

TC Electronic

In the current JustPedals catalogue, TC Electronic is represented by Delay Pedals, Reverb Pedals and Looper Pedals. Current listings include DC30 Preamp, Plethora X1 and V550 Pre-Amp. That makes the range relevant to players looking for drive, gain and clipping, plus time-based effects and ambience. 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.

Distortion Pedals

Distortion pedals use stronger or more deliberate clipping than a typical overdrive, adding harmonics, compression and sustain. Some are voiced for amp-like crunch, others for high-gain rhythm or a deliberately abrasive texture. Gain, tone, presence, resonance and output controls determine how the pedal interacts with the amplifier and pickups; a blend or noise gate can preserve clarity in heavier settings. Placement changes the result, so check whether the design is intended to push an amp, run into a clean platform or feed a direct cabinet simulation.

Analogue

Analogue products use continuous audio circuitry for some or all of the signal path, so clipping, filtering or modulation arises from physical components rather than sampled algorithms. The label does not guarantee a particular tone; component choice, headroom, bias, noise and the surrounding gain stages still matter. Check whether the switching, presets, control section or cabinet stage is digital when the exact signal path is important.

Bass

Bass products are designed or voiced to retain low-frequency information and usable headroom with bass guitar or other low-register sources. Controls may centre on clean blend, low-end EQ, compression, crossover points or drive character. A guitar pedal can sometimes work well on bass, but it may remove the fundamental or compress the transient. Check the frequency response, input impedance, output level and dry-signal path with the intended tuning and amplifier.

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.
