Mooer has unveiled its latest innovation in portable guitar technology: the Prime M2 Intelligent Pedal. This ultra-compact multi-effects unit promises to revolutionize the traveling guitarist’s rig, packing a staggering array of features into a device smaller than a smartphone.
Mooer Prime M2
In a market dominated by established giants, Mooer continues to carve its niche with its line of “smart” pedals. The Prime M2, a spiritual successor to the popular Prime P1, takes portability and functionality to new heights.
Touchscreen Control and Unprecedented Portability
The M2’s standout feature is its circular touchscreen display, a rarity in such a compact pedal. This intuitive interface allows for effortless navigation through the device’s extensive features. Despite its diminutive size, comparable to a Tube Screamer, the M2 boasts 194 built-in effect models and tonal emulations, organized into 80 preset slots.
“The Prime M2 Intelligent Pedal is set to be an impressive new addition to the Prime series,” Mooer stated in a press release. “It features augmented functionality when compared to past models, yet still in a minimalist and easy-to-use package, keeping the size small and light yet still packing in footswitches, a touch screen, and other flexible control systems.”
A Wealth of Tonal Options
The M2 offers a comprehensive suite of effects, including overdrive, preamp simulators, cabinet models, delays, reverbs, and modulation. Users can also load third-party IR samples for expanded tonal possibilities.
Beyond Effects: A Complete Practice and Performance Tool
The M2 is more than just an effects processor. It includes an 80-minute looper with 10 save slots, a metronome, and a drum machine with 56 groove patterns and four metronome variations. A built-in tuner, Bluetooth connectivity, MIDI compatibility, and a USB-C port for direct recording further enhance its versatility.
Power and Convenience
A rechargeable lithium battery provides up to six hours of playing time, eliminating the need for external power sources. Two footswitches offer flexible control over the device’s functions.
“Combined with the fact that the M2 is powered by a rechargeable battery, it makes for the perfect addition to any traveling electric guitarist’s rig,” Mooer confirms.
Pricing and Availability
The Mooer Prime M2 promises to be a game-changer for guitarists seeking a powerful and portable multi-effects solution. Its combination of touchscreen control, extensive features, and compact design makes it a compelling option for players of all levels.
