About HOTONE

We have new and used HOTONE gear available on our website for fast direct delivery direct to you from across sellers in all areas of the USA & UK.

Hotone is a global brand known for its compact and affordable audio equipment, including effects pedals, amp modelers, and guitar accessories. Founded in 2009, the company quickly gained popularity for offering high-quality gear in small, portable formats without sacrificing performance. Hotone?s products, such as the Skyline and XT series pedals, are designed to provide powerful sound-shaping capabilities while maintaining a sleek, user-friendly interface. Their gear is particularly favoured by musicians who need reliable and versatile effects in a small footprint, making it ideal for pedalboard setups or musicians on the go.

Buffer

A buffer pedal is used to preserve the quality and integrity of a guitar’s signal as it travels through a pedalboard. Its primary function is to maintain the signal strength and tonal clarity, especially in setups with multiple effects pedals and long cable runs.

When a guitar signal passes through a series of effects pedals and long cables, it can experience signal degradation, resulting in a loss of high frequencies, reduced clarity, and increased noise.

A buffer pedal addresses this issue by using active circuitry to “buffer” or isolate the guitar signal from the effects chain.

This helps to prevent signal loss and tonal degradation, ensuring that the signal remains strong and clear throughout the entire signal path.

Buffer pedals are especially useful in complex pedalboards where multiple pedals and long cables can otherwise negatively impact the guitar’s tone.

Expression

An expression pedal is a dynamic control device that allows musicians to manipulate various effects in real time by adjusting parameters with their foot. Unlike a standard effects pedal with on/off switches or knobs, an expression pedal provides continuous control over settings such as volume, wah, delay time, modulation depth, or gain, depending on the connected effect unit.

Expression pedals are commonly used with multi-effects processors, digital delays, and modulation pedals, offering hands-free adjustments for greater musical flexibility. Some well-known expression pedals include the Boss EV-30, Mission Engineering EP-1, and the Dunlop DVP4, all of which provide smooth, responsive control over a wide range of effects, making them essential for live performances and dynamic playing styles.

Tuner

A tuner pedal is an essential tool for musicians, providing an easy and accurate way to ensure their instrument is properly tuned. It works by detecting the pitch of the incoming signal from the guitar or bass and visually displaying whether the note is sharp, flat, or in tune. This allows players to quickly make adjustments and maintain optimal tuning during rehearsals or live performances.

Most modern tuner pedals, such as the Boss TU-3 or TC Electronic Polytune, feature true bypass, ensuring they do not affect the tone when not in use. Some tuners offer additional features like chromatic tuning, mute functions, and polyphonic tuning (which allows tuning multiple strings at once), making them indispensable for any musician looking for precise, hassle-free tuning on stage or in the studio.
