The Grace Design MOXi 2-channel instrument preamp/blender pedal is purpose-built for acoustic musicians who demand uncompromising studio-grade tone in a compact, gig-ready format. Sitting between the flagship FELiX and streamlined BiX, the MOXi strikes the perfect balance of power and simplicity. With two pristine preamps, independent three-band EQ on each channel, flexible routing and performance-focused footswitches, it’s tailored for players who need professional sound and control without carrying a rack’s worth of gear. Whether you’re blending dual pickups, running multiple instruments or sending a polished DI to front-of-house, MOXi puts Grace Design’s renowned audio quality at your feet.
Two Independent Preamps With Three-Band EQ
At the core of MOXi are two transparent, musical preamps that preserve every nuance of your acoustic tone. Each channel includes an independent three-band EQ with semi-parametric mids, giving you precision control to shape your sound for any room or mix. A high-pass filter at 75Hz keeps your signal clean and free from low-end rumble, while dedicated phase reverse switches help eliminate feedback. With 1 Mohm input impedance, both channels are perfectly voiced for acoustic instruments and pickups, ensuring natural dynamics and full-frequency detail every time you plug in.
Flexible Signal Blending and Routing Options
MOXi gives you the freedom to run your rig exactly how you want. Its blend control allows you to mix two signals—ideal for combining a mic and pickup or layering dual sources into a cohesive tone. Switch to A/B mode and you can easily toggle between two instruments, making fast changes seamless on stage. A transformer-balanced XLR DI sends a polished, noise-free signal to front-of-house, while a line-level 1/4" output feeds your stage amp. Add in the dedicated FX loop with individual send/return jacks, and MOXi integrates effortlessly into even the most complex setups.
Intuitive Footswitches for Seamless Stage Performance
Designed with the stage in mind, MOXi provides intuitive foot control that keeps your hands on your instrument. An A/B footswitch lets you switch instruments instantly, while the Mute/Tune switch silences all outputs except the FX send—perfect for quiet tuning or set breaks. A Boost footswitch adds up to 10dB of clean gain, ideal for solos or pushing through a dense mix. For additional control, a rear-panel switch allows boost defeat on channel 1, tailoring the pedal to your workflow. With these smart performance features, MOXi is as responsive as it is reliable.
Compact Design, Built to Last
Despite its depth of features, MOXi remains compact and road ready. Its pedalboard-friendly chassis is powered by standard 9V DC, drawing just 150mA, while a rugged build ensures it can withstand years of touring. For players using specialized mics or pickups, MOXi supplies 6V bias power on both inputs, expanding compatibility with a range of acoustic systems. Like all Grace Design gear, MOXi is engineered and built in Lyons, Colorado, with the company’s signature attention to sonic excellence and durability. Backed by a transferable five-year warranty, it’s a serious investment in reliable, professional-grade sound.
Grace Design MOXi: Unmatched Control for Serious Players
The Grace Design MOXi brings the brand’s legendary clarity and fidelity into an accessible dual-channel pedal that fits anywhere—from pedalboards to fly rigs. Perfect for singer-songwriters, multi-instrumentalists and acoustic performers who demand studio-quality sound in live settings, MOXi combines powerful shaping tools with intuitive performance features. It’s the ideal solution for players who want more than a simple DI, but don’t need the full complexity of FELiX. With MOXi, every stage, studio and session becomes a showcase for your instrument’s natural voice.
