Pocket amps, mini stompboxes and multi-effects
Sonicake's multi-effects range is where the brand puts most of its technology. The Sonicake Pocket Master is a compact multi-effects processor with 100+ built-in guitar, bass and acoustic effects, 20 amp models and 24-bit 44.1kHz signal processing4. RockBoard's PedalPedia lists it as a compact multi-effects processor among its Sonicake entries5.
The Sonicake Matribox steps up to 130 built-in guitar, bass and acoustic effects, 40 amp models and 38 IR cabinet simulations, and runs in either stompbox mode or preset mode depending on the situation6. The Sonicake Smart Box is a multi-effects unit with amp modeling and a USB audio interface, using what the maker calls proprietary white-box digital modeling for 130+ amp models7. Its feature set is aimed at recording and mobile players: USB audio with loopback and re-amp, OTG support for iOS and Android, wired and wireless BT-MIDI, and an EXP/FS input for expression pedals or footswitch expansion8.
The Mini Stompbox lineup
The Mini Stompbox collection is six compact pedals: Sonic Super Master, Buffer ABY, Cowboy, Trio Rider, Fazy Sandwich and Source Comp2. Sonicake pitches the lineup as covering, in its own words, "'Centaur' style overdrive, classical fuzz, solid distortion, transparent compression, or reliable routing"9.
| Pedal | What it is |
|---|---|
| Sonic Super Master | Clean boost pedal with a buffer10 |
| Buffer ABY | Routing and buffering |
| Cowboy | High-gain distortion pedal11 |
| Trio Rider | Part of the mini lineup2 |
| Fazy Sandwich | Classical fuzz9 |
| Source Comp | Transparent compression9 |
The Blue Skreamer is a dual-mode, true-bypass overdrive pedal in the same mini format12. Beyond the mini boxes, the range includes the FlipWah, a full-size wah and volume combo pedal upgraded from the previous generation with improved controls and displays plus a direct line output13, and utility pedals such as the Sonic One Loop, which combines AB line selection, a loop function and a buffer in one unit14.
Sonicake also makes accessories for crowded boards. The Momentary Footswitch is, in the maker's words, "Compact in size and light in weight"15, and the Junction Box is a passive pedalboard junction box for tidying connections16. RockBoard's PedalPedia carries further Sonicake entries such as the Cry-Bot17.
One documented player use: Randy Bowling runs the A Factory on a small pedalboard with a Martin fitted with an E1 under-saddle pickup, through a Fishman Loudbox Micro acoustic amp, alongside an LR Baggs Align Reverb and a Wampler Equator18.

Questions
What warranty do Sonicake pedals have?
Sonicake provides a 1-year free warranty on all of its products, covering its pedals, multi-effects units and accessories alike. The warranty is stated by the maker on its about page and applies across the product range.
Can you return a Sonicake pedal?
Yes. Sonicake offers a 30-day return and exchange policy on all of its products, alongside its 1-year free warranty. If a pedal is not working out, it can go back within that window.
Does Sonicake ship to the US?
Sonicake states that shipments are available to most countries and regions, with fast and free delivery through its own online store. The US is among the regions the maker serves.
Is the Sonicake Blue Skreamer a Tube Screamer clone?
The Blue Skreamer is a dual-mode, true-bypass overdrive pedal from Sonicake's Mini Stompbox collection. Sonicake describes it as dual-mode rather than naming it a clone of any specific circuit, so treat it as an overdrive with two voicings rather than a straight copy.
What is the Sonicake Matribox II?
The Matribox line is Sonicake's compact multi-effects processor family. The original Matribox carries 130 built-in guitar, bass and acoustic effects with 40 amp models and 38 IR cabinet simulations, and offers both stompbox and preset modes. The Matribox II is the second generation of that line.
Is the Sonicake Bi-Reactor still available?
Availability of individual Sonicake pedals varies. Some listings on the maker's own store show as sold out, as with the US Classic at the time of this page's check, so a specific pedal's status is best judged from its current product page.
