  • The new 'M Series' from Mosky features several modern takes on classic circuits, including this one that's based on several iterations of the Proco Rat.
    The 'King Rat' features the standard three knobs found on all Rats, plus a toggle switch to jump between vintage 'LM308' tones, and more modern, 'OP07DP' based, Rat distortion. And if that's not enough for ya, there's also a selector knob to choose between four different Rat versions!
    All of this amazing versatility is housed in a pedalboard-friendly, 125b enclosure with top jacks, and can be yours for only around £50! Insane. 🤯

    For everyone wondering if there is two seperate chips inside (LM308/OP07DP). Sadly no. There is a chip labeled 24A30CM TL082CP on the board, a JFET OP Amp.

      @@JustinEthnostate my best guess is that the chip inside somehow emulates the 2 vintage chips. Nevertheless, that should not keep anyone from giving this a chance. It does a pretty good job at it, I 've had tons of fun and no issues so far !

    Youve sold me on one of these, i love my big box rat but this'll fit on my pedalboard easier and I've been curious to try other rat types anyways. For $40 this is an absolute steal I can't wait for mine to arrive.

    • @Hiseternallight

      Just got it, compared it to the rat reissue. I dialed in tones on the 90s rat and then tried to match those sounds on the Mosky. They are extremely close. I noticed the Mosky had just a little more body on it so on average i had to turn the tone knob up a little more on the Mosky to match the proco. Mosky has a little more gain to my ears so i lowered the gain knob a little more than I usually would to match. Vintage mode 2 is spot on. The clipping sounds just slightly smoother on the proco, just slighty less fuzzy. I would say it's 95% there which I'm more than happy with, and then there's 3 other modes to explore! All in all, totally worth it if you're on the fence about it.

    Great demo, just the right length to cover a dirt pedal. I have the Donner Nlavk Moyse or whatever it is they call it. I'd like to leave it in that gigging board set up. This looks like a nice second clone to try. 8modes in total! It'd probably set off my decision paralysis, lol.

    Have you been able to compare this to a real rat, or even something like the joyo splinter, or any other clones?
    And how do you feel it stacks up against them?
    In a bind trying to work out wether to get the demon fx fat mouse and golden rat (fat rat and iriginal rat clone with a proper lm308), the joyo splinter, or this pedal,
    at the current rate i might just buy all 4 to test - then keep the 2 i like and give my dad and mate one each 😂

    • @PedalExperiments
      @PedalExperiments  Рік тому +1

      No, I haven't tried it against a real Rat, unfortunately.
      I would say this holds up very well compared with other clones, and covers a wide range of distortion tones. I just wish the gain knob was more linear, with a gradual decrease in saturation at lower settings, rather than the vague, on-or-off nature that it has.

    • @PedalExperiments
      @PedalExperiments  Рік тому +2

      I hadn't heard of that one before. Looks like a few Chinese companies lend their name to that pedal, including Mosky.
      It looks like a pretty standard Rat clone, but with a toggle switch for three modes that - I assume - change the clipping.
      As far as the differences go between that and this King Rat; I highly doubt there are many. Certainly not enough to be worthy of a shoot-out, in my opinion.
      Most Rat style distortions sound pretty similar, tbh.
      £50 for this Mosky King Rat is great...but you'd probably be just as happy with an ENO Myomorpha for £25.

    • @PedalExperiments
      @PedalExperiments  Рік тому +2

      They aren't a million miles away from each other, tbf! I find that if you scoop all the mids out of a Rat, it sounds very similar to a Muff, and similarly, if you add mids to a Muff, it gets closer to a Rat. 😄
