The DFX-1 is a multi-effect processing unit designed in collaboration with Aaron Sterling to add musical character and punch to any acoustic drum or percussion source. Craft everything from subtle to in-your-face drum sounds with studio-grade VCA & FET compression, two flavors each of Delay and Reverb, plus Saturation, Gating, an FX loop with customizable routing, and a flexible EQ. Use the DFX-1 anywhere on your kit with any microphone, whether it’s a squashed, spacious room mic, a tight, gated snare, or even routed outboard for processing in post. With a high-performance microphone preamp with phantom power, an effects loop to connect external outboard equipment, MIDI connectivity, and presets, a whole new world of sonic creativity becomes available right at your drum set.

The DFX-1 is built around three main effect engines - Compression, Delay, and Reverb, each with two distinctive flavors so you can move smoothly between vintage character and modern clarity. Use the Saturation and Tilt-style EQ controls for further tone shaping. Additionally, the FX loop can incorporate pedals or outboard gear, and route effects in different orders for radically different results.
