If you’ve ever wished you could carry your whole effects setup in your pocket, the M-Vave BlackBox Multi-Effects Processor is exactly that. It’s a small, rechargeable effects unit that gives you amps, cabs, pedals, drums, looping, and recording—all packed into something about the size of a deck of cards.
It’s simple, practical, and powerful. Whether you’re practicing at home, jamming with friends, or recording ideas on the go, the BlackBox makes it easy to get a great sound without dragging around a full pedalboard.
Small Device, Huge Features
Even though it looks tiny, the BlackBox comes loaded with features you’d normally expect from much bigger (and more expensive) gear.
Here’s what it offers:
-
57 amp models — everything from clean and classic to heavy and modern
-
26 cabinet IRs — realistic speaker sounds that make your tone feel “real”
-
Over 100 effects — delays, reverbs, chorus, distortion, compression, and more
-
Rechargeable battery (up to 5 hours) — no need for a power supply
-
3.5″ color touchscreen — easy to see, easy to edit
-
Drum machine + looper — great for practicing or building ideas
-
Built-in tuner — always useful
-
USB audio interface — record straight into your phone, tablet, or laptop
Despite all of that, it weighs almost nothing and fits in your pocket.
Easy to Use, Even If You’re Not a Tech Expert
The BlackBox is designed so you don’t need to spend hours messing with menus. The touchscreen makes everything feel familiar—just tap, drag, and adjust.
-
Want to change pedals? Tap and swap.
-
Want to move effects around? Drag and drop.
-
Want a different amp? Pick one and play.
It’s beginner-friendly, but deep enough for experienced players who like to customize their tones.
Great for Both Guitar and Bass
A lot of tiny multi-effects units are built only with guitarists in mind. The BlackBox actually supports both instruments. It has bass amps, bass cabinet IRs, and effects that work well with low frequencies. So if you switch between guitar and bass, you won’t need a separate device.
Perfect for Practice, Travel, or Quick Recording
Because it’s so light and rechargeable, the BlackBox is perfect for:
-
Practicing quietly at home
-
Carrying in your backpack for travel
-
Warming up before shows
-
Recording ideas quickly
-
Playing with headphones
-
Jamming without a full setup
It’s basically a full practice and recording rig that fits in your hand.
