Alexander Pedals Marshmallow

Alexander Pedals · pedal

The Alexander Pedals Marshmallow is a dual modulated pitch-shifter in the NEO Series with six processing modes and a CLOCK knob reducing internal sample rate from 44.1kHz down to 1.6kHz for deliberate lo-fi artifacts. Six modes: MOD (two pitch voices with LFO modulation for chorus-like texture), ARPY (pitch arpeggiator with rhythmic step sequences), RAND (random pitch modulation for unpredictable sounds), RING (dual pitch shift with auto-panning), DYNA (dynamics-sensitive pitch switching between two intervals based on pick attack), and CLOUD (dual pitch shift with feedback for reverb-like washes). Features 4 onboard presets, MIDI, expression pedal, and Neo Morph for seamless preset transitions.

What stands out

  • “Lo-fi artifacts at low CLOCK settings are intentional but may disorient players expecting clean pitch tracking”

    — from the community notes

  • “CLOUD mode creates dual-pitch-shifted feedback washes that fall between chorus and shimmer reverb useful for ambient textures”
