The Xotic EP-Pro is a premium preamp, boost and volume pedal that distils the magic of the legendary Echoplex preamp into a modern, ultra-flexible format. Building on the iconic EP Booster circuit, it delivers that unmistakable analogue warmth while giving you precise control over feel, touch and response, whether it is in front of your amp, in the loop, at the end of your chain or in front of a digital rig.

Designed as an always-on tone enhancer, the EP-Pro is all about making your guitar and amp feel better under the fingers. From subtle sweetening and added nuance through to fat, harmonically rich boost, it lets your playing breathe and respond more dynamically. At the same time, the integrated volume pedal function gives you smooth, musical control over level without sacrificing clarity or tone.

Whether you are chasing classic Jimmy Page and Eddie Van Halen style Echoplex-inspired tones, looking to add life and dimension to a digital modeller, or simply want your valve amp to wake up and respond more naturally, the EP-Pro slots into almost any setup. Its refined FET preamp, flexible switching and compact treadle format make it a powerful hub for shaping both your sound and your playing experience.

EP Booster Heritage with Modern Refinement

At the heart of the EP-Pro is the same celebrated preamp concept that made the original EP Booster a modern classic. It captures the rich, musical character of the Echoplex preamp, adding subtle compression, harmonic content and a touch of sparkle that flatters almost any guitar and amp combination. With extended control and switching options, the EP-Pro lets you dial that magic in exactly where you want it, from barely-there sweetening to a more pronounced, amp-pushing boost.

FTR: Feel, Touch and Response

Xotic’s FTR philosophy puts the playing experience front and centre. Rather than simply changing EQ or adding gain, the EP-Pro is voiced to enhance the way your guitar reacts to your hands. Notes bloom more naturally, dynamics feel more expressive and your amp responds more fluidly to picking strength and volume knob changes. The result is a rig that feels more connected and inspiring, helping you play more musically without fighting your gear.

Multiple Placement Options for Infinite Possibilities

The EP-Pro is designed to be used in several key positions in your signal path, each unlocking a different flavour of control. In front of a valve amp it adds nuance and drive to the input stage, in an effects loop it shapes level and character at the power section, and at the end of your pedalboard it acts as a master tone and volume shaper. Placed before digital modellers and amp sims, it restores organic response and analogue feel, helping your virtual rigs behave more like a great amp in the room.

Integrated Volume Pedal with Flexible Switching

Combining preamp and volume control in a single treadle, the EP-Pro keeps your board tidy while giving you hands-free control over level. The pedal can be configured for true bypass or buffered operation via internal dip switches, allowing you to tailor it to your rig and cable runs. Whether you are using it for subtle swells, overall volume balancing or as a dynamic gain control into your amp, the EP-Pro maintains clarity and tone across its entire travel.

Key Features

• Echoplex-inspired FET Preamp – Based on the much-loved EP Booster circuit, the EP-Pro delivers the rich, musical enhancement associated with the classic Echoplex preamp. It adds harmonic depth, subtle compression and a touch of top-end sweetness, helping your guitar sit perfectly in the mix without sounding processed.
• Preamp and Volume Pedal in One – By combining a high-quality preamp/boost with a smooth treadle-controlled volume stage, the EP-Pro reduces pedalboard clutter and puts powerful tone and level control under your foot. You can shape your core sound and manage dynamics from a single, compact unit.
• Optimised for Multiple Signal Chain Positions – The EP-Pro is designed to excel in front of amps, in effects loops, at the end of pedal chains or in front of digital modellers. Each position offers a different way to refine your tone, from tightening and energising your amp to adding sparkle and cohesion to your entire rig.
• Selectable True Bypass or Buffered Operation – Internal dip switches let you choose between true bypass or buffered signal switching. This flexibility means you can preserve the purest possible signal path in simple setups, or use the buffer to maintain clarity and high-end detail when running longer cable lengths or more complex boards.
