AMP CRASH is back in stock at Death by Audio

Words by Mixdown staff

Perfect for recording, practicing, experimenting, or discovering sounds you simply can't get from a conventional pedalboard.

Our friends at Death by Audio announced a collaboration with Rainger FX to bring you the Amp Crash: An Amp, Speaker, Mic, and Multi-Effects Pedal

Catch up on all the latest news here.

An amp, a speaker, and a microphone inside a pedal.

Amp Crash packs the sound and feel of a cranked amp into a compact stompbox. With a built-in 3-watt amplifier, internal 2″ speaker, and microphone, it captures the interaction of a real speaker moving air, then lets you blend the direct amp signal with the mic’d sound for everything from rich overdrive to crushing fuzz, blooming harmonics, natural feedback, and completely unpredictable textures.

  • A collaboration between Death By Audio and Rainger FX
  • Real 3-watt amplifier, internal 2” speaker, and microphone built into the pedal
  • Built-in Reverb, Echo, and Chorus effects
  • Great for recording, practice, experimentation, or adding a real amp to your pedalboard
  • Lifetime warranty

The sound isn’t being simulated. It’s happening.

Unlike traditional distortion or amp simulation pedals, Amp Crash creates sound physically, not just electronically. A real amplifier drives a real speaker. A real microphone captures what that speaker is actually doing. As those elements interact, they generate harmonics, feedback, compression, and textures that only exist because air is moving inside the pedal.

The result is an instrument that breathes, responds, and sometimes even fights back, just like your favourite cranked amp.
