Tech 21 began in Manhattan in 1989 when designer Andrew Barta introduced SansAmp, an all-analogue amplifier and speaker-emulation circuit for direct recording. SansAmp remains central to the company’s guitar and bass range, appearing in standalone preamps, DI pedals, rack units and Fly Rig products. JustPedals listings include the GT2, Programmable Bass Driver DI, Para Driver DI and Character Series VT Bass DI, as well as the MIDI Mouse. These products shape or send a direct instrument signal, rather than providing only conventional modulation or ambience; compare instrument voicing and output connections.

Wah & Filter Pedals
Wah effects sweep a resonant band-pass or related filter through the frequency spectrum, creating the vowel-like movement associated with the treadle. Envelope filters move automatically in response to picking level, while fixed and sequenced filters use other control sources. Sweep range, resonance, direction, sensitivity and input loading determine whether the response is vocal, percussive, smooth or sharply synthetic.
