Caline

In the current JustPedals catalogue, Caline is represented by Pedal Power Supplies, Effect Pedal Kits and Compression Pedals. Current listings include CP-85, DCP-05 Key West Compressor and EQ and CP-82. That makes the range relevant to players looking for pedalboard infrastructure and control. 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.

Build your own Pedal

Build-your-own pedal products are intended for assembly rather than immediate plug-and-play use. The project may involve soldering a circuit board, wiring jacks and switches, drilling or finishing an enclosure and testing for noise or shorts. Difficulty depends on the instructions and how much is pre-populated. Check the parts list, tools, expected voltage, enclosure work and skill level before starting, and allow time for troubleshooting rather than treating the kit as a finished pedal.

Chorus

Chorus mixes the dry signal with one or more short, modulated delays to create movement, width and gentle pitch variation. Rate sets the speed; depth sets the excursion; blend, tone and stereo routing control how prominent the effect becomes. Shallow settings can widen a clean part without obscuring the note, while deeper settings create a pronounced wobble. Check mono compatibility, headroom and the position after drives or before a mixer.

Compressor

Compressor pedals reduce dynamic range by turning louder peaks down and raising or sustaining the average level. Attack and release determine whether the pick transient stays sharp; ratio, threshold, blend and output gain decide whether the result is discreet control or an obvious effect. Compression can add sustain, tighten bass and even out clean picking, but it can also raise noise and reduce touch contrast. Check the gain structure and placement before setting the amount of compression.

Delay

Delay repeats the input after a set time. Feedback controls how long the repeats continue, while filtering, modulation, saturation and mix shape their character and prominence. Tap tempo can set rhythmic timing hands-free, and presets or MIDI can recall several timings. Check maximum delay time, spillover, trails, stereo routing, headroom and whether the pedal is analogue, tape-style or digital when the repeat response is important.

Distortion

Distortion uses deliberate clipping to add harmonics, compression and sustain. Some circuits are voiced for amp-like crunch, others for high-gain rhythm or an abrasive texture. Gain, tone, presence, resonance, blend and noise-control features determine how the pedal interacts with pickups and the next stage. Before choosing, decide whether it will push an amplifier, run into a clean platform or feed a cabinet simulation, because the same control settings can behave very differently in each route.

Effect Pedal Kit

Effect pedal kits provide a set of parts for building an effects unit, often including a circuit board, components, enclosure or hardware. They can be a useful way to learn how clipping, filtering, gain and switching are implemented, but the required work varies from guided assembly to a full wiring and enclosure project. Read the build notes, check the expected voltage and make sure the kit includes the parts and tools needed for the intended finish.

Fuzz

Fuzz pushes a signal into intentionally non-linear clipping, often with strong sustain, compression and harmonic roughness. Circuits range from gated splutter and octave-rich textures to broad, woolly saturation, and their response can change with pickup level and guitar volume. Bias, tone, gain and input impedance affect the clean-up and feel. Check whether the fuzz prefers to see the guitar directly, how it handles buffers, and its power and noise requirements.

High Feedback

High-feedback designs return more of the processed signal to the circuit, making repeats, resonance, clipping or oscillation more pronounced. The result can be a longer delay trail, a sharper filter peak, a more aggressive distortion texture or controlled self-oscillation. Feedback is sensitive to level and placement, so check the available control range, stability, noise, mix and mute behaviour before using the product in a live or layered setup.

Overdrive

Overdrive adds controlled clipping and harmonics while retaining more of the source attack and dynamics than heavier distortion. It can simulate a pushed valve amp, add a mid lift, tighten the low end or provide an always-on foundation. Gain, tone, output, presence, bass and clipping options shape how it responds to pickups and the next stage. Decide whether the pedal should clean up from the guitar volume, stack with another drive or push an amplifier.

Tremolo

Tremolo varies the level of the signal over time, creating a pulse that can be smooth, choppy, vintage or rhythmically pronounced. Rate controls speed; depth, waveform, bias, phase and tap tempo shape the movement. Some designs add harmonic tremolo or stereo routing. Before choosing, check whether the pedal sits before or after drive, whether it preserves the dry path, whether expression or MIDI is available and how much headroom remains at deeper settings.
