The ENGL EP635 Fireball IR pedal captures the legendary high-gain tone and precision of the ENGL Fireball amplifier in a compact, pedalboard-friendly design. This 2-channel preamp pedal delivers the raw power and clarity that ENGL is renowned for, offering guitarists the ability to shape their sound with studio-grade precision. Featuring independent channel controls, a built-in midboost and advanced impulse response (IR) loading, the EP635 provides unmatched tonal flexibility for both live performances and recording. Its rugged chassis and intuitive layout make it a reliable and powerful tool for players seeking aggressive tones with modern digital convenience.
Two Independent Channels for Seamless Tone Shifts
The Fireball IR pedal features two independent channels that allow players to switch between distinct tonal profiles effortlessly. Each channel's settings—including volume, gain and EQ—are saved independently, ensuring smooth transitions between clean and overdriven tones. Whether you're dialing in warm cleans or crushing high-gain leads, the dual-channel design provides the flexibility to tailor your sound for any section of your performance. With its precise controls, this pedal ensures tonal consistency and responsiveness, even during demanding live sets.
Midboost Switch for Cutting Through the Mix
The integrated midboost switch on this model enhances tonal clarity and punch, making it ideal for cutting through dense full-band mixes or adding extra presence to solos. Activated with a simple switch, the midboost function emphasizes midrange frequencies, ensuring that your tone remains articulate and powerful. Whether you're playing rhythm or lead, this feature helps your sound stand out without compromising the pedal's signature high-gain aggression. The result is a dynamic and assertive tone that maintains clarity across all gain levels.
Impulse Response Technology for Studio-Grade Sound
The EP635 takes tonal customization even further with impulse response (IR) loading via USB-C. Players can upload custom IR files to achieve cab simulations that rival professional studio setups. This advanced technology allows for precise sound shaping, providing a wide range of tonal possibilities directly from your pedalboard. Combined with the headphone output for silent practice and recording, this feature ensures that your tone remains consistent and polished, whether you're on stage or in the studio. The result is a seamless integration of analog power and digital precision.

Engineered for reliability, the Fireball IR pedal features a premium chassis designed to withstand the rigors of live performance. Responsive knobs for bass, middle, treble, presence, gain and volume offer precise tonal control without the need for complex menus or external software. True bypass circuitry ensures a clean, unaltered signal path when disengaged, preserving the integrity of your tone. With its compact design and rugged construction, this pedal is built to deliver consistent performance in demanding environments, from rehearsal spaces to sold-out venues.
