Since their beginning in the late 1960s, Maxon has built their reputation on a single concept ­ quality. Early on our engineers realized that anything could be built faster and cheaper, but to build something better was the true mark of a master. Our relentless pursuit of perfection met many obstacles over the years, but like anyone committed to a cause, Maxon kept their sights focused on the ultimate goal ­ to build the highest quality audio products possible.

Our quest led us to many firsts in the industry ­ the first realistic tube-amp overdrive; the first compact analog delay; the first multi-effect unit; the first programmable effect ­ the list goes on. And while many companies have "borrowed" these groundbreaking design concepts over the years, few have been able to match Maxon's ingenuity, determination and longevity on their own.

Today, after nearly 25 years as an OEM supplier to some of the music industry's largest companies, Maxon is once again offering our own brand of products to the US marketplace. We've made available detailed information on Maxon's line of analog effect units including technical specs, audio demos, user comments, and design secrets that have until now remained classified. We hope you gain as much enjoyment from studying this information as we did in compiling it!

Thirty years in, Maxon has their sight set on the same goal ­ to build the finest quality audio products possible, always. Maxon ­ still effecting generations.
