Carl Martin releases HeadRoom Mini pedal and patch cables

January 1, 2025 · 1 sources

Carl Martin released the HeadRoom Mini pedal and patch cables in 2025, according to a company timeline on its website¹. The entry is dated 2025 and follows the 2024 release of the Tone Tweaker¹.

The maker's timeline lists the HeadRoom Mini and patch cables as a single 2025 entry and gives no further description of either product¹. No specifications, controls, price or availability date for the pedal or the cables appear on the page¹.

The timeline places the release in the company's recent history. East Sound Research, the company behind Carl Martin, was founded in 1990 by Søren Jongberg, and the first Carl Martin pedal, the Hot Drive'n Boost, followed in 1993¹. The page states that around 50 Carl Martin pedals have been created since then, along with handcrafted, point-to-point tube amplifiers and cabinets¹.

Jongberg died in 2023, and in 2024 the company passed to Thomas Svenstrup, owner of the music company DanGuitar.dk, according to the page¹. It states that Svenstrup continues the Carl Martin legacy and aims to improve and expand the product range, and that the team includes technicians who worked on Carl Martin designs alongside Jongberg¹.
