AC Noises AMA V.2 — Reverb / Oscillator / Bit Crusher

The AC Noises AMA V.2 is an unusual Italian-made ambient/experimental pedal combining a modulated spring-style reverb, oscillator, and bit crusher. It is particularly suited to shoegaze, post-rock, ambient, noise, and experimental guitar. AC Noises says the original AMA became one of its best-selling pedals after its 2018 introduction.
