MXR Rockman X100 Guitar Tone Pedal - Ultimate Analog Tone Processor

MXR Rockman X100 Analog Tone Processor (MX100) – In Stock

Capture the iconic “arena rock in a box” sound of the original Rockman X100—now in a pedalboard-friendly MXR format. Developed with the original SR&D/Rockman engineers, the MXR Rockman X100 recreates Tom Scholz’s legendary headphone amp using an all-analog circuit that delivers the same bright, compressed cleans, saturated sustain, and shimmering chorus heard across countless ’80s recordings.

Four classic presets, instantly dialed. Toggle through two clean voices and two dirty voices—CLN2 for crystal highs and long sustain, CLN1 for a tighter mid-focused clean, Edge for dynamic crunch that cleans up with your volume knob, and Distortion for high-energy lead sustain.

Signature compression + real bucket-brigade chorus. A key to the Rockman sound is its calibrated compression circuit, keeping your tone clear and punchy whether clean or driven. Hit the Chorus button and you get lush, wide modulation from a classic MN3007 bucket-brigade chip—just like the original unit.

Studio-ready DI tones and stage versatility. The Rockman X100 shines for direct recording, quick layered rhythm tracks, and big stereo rigs. Use mono or stereo modes, and add an external switch if you want hands-free preset changes.
