Ultra-affordable, High-gain Distortion Pedal!

The Magus Pro high-gain distortion pedal from TC Electronic puts that coveted tone of the infamous LM308 op-amp in your hands — and at your feet — at an amazingly affordable price point. This all-analog circuit pedal features three straight-ahead knobs — Gain, Volume, and Filter — for quick tweaks to your tone. In addition, a Treble Filter control lets you shape that all-important top-end bite. A Fat/Classic/Turbo switch also lets you dial in the gritty, growling mids and lows that will remind you of so many rad hot-rodded '80s amp tones. At Sweetwater, we especially love the Magus Pro's Turbo mode that keeps you firmly oriented to your available headroom with LED clipping diodes on display.

Holy Rat Trap Batman!

I am a newly devoted Rat fan and I cannot express enough how happy I am with this pedal. It is really unbelievable how many tonal possibilities you have with it considering Rat is known as a high gain pedal. Now add the Magus Pro's mode switch to the equation! Holy Rat Trap Batman! I am especially in love with the Turbo mode but I know I will find many other favorite combinations. Shout Out to my sales engineer Logan, thank you for always taking good care of me.

Magus Pro Rocks

You get three Rats in one pedal for the price of a ProCo Rat! Love the Turbo setting!
Rated 5/5

Great cheap RAT clone

As in title - great ProCo RAT clone, with different modes and a very tiny enclosure with top jacks - which makes it so great at compact pedalboards. Fat and Classic are what can be expected from a usual RAT - a beefy distortion, almost going into Fuzz territory. Turbo works great as a boost for a vintage drive tone - my favorite mode actually.

3-in-1 growl!

I own a ProCo Rat, which is legendary, but it's been collecting dust, mainly to tho popping, hiss, noise, etc. I did my research on the TC Electronic Magus Pro, and I am very happy with my purchase! The big factor for me was that the entire range is usable, whereas the Rat seemed to always be 75% muddy. The bonus is the 3 distinct modes, which have been fun to experiment with. No slam on the Rat, but I do like this "cleaner" alternative. And as always, great follow-up service from Eric and Sweetwater.

Three Flavors of Rat on the Cheap

This replaced my boutique Rat clone with a turbo setting and I'm much happier with the Magus Pro because I now have three settings and this pedal is significantly quieter than the clone. My favorite setting is probably the Fat as it's very full-sounding but all three settings are very usable. I feel that it's a steal for the money.
