Bass-Spieler aufgepasst: Dieses Pedal ist wie für Tiefsaiter gemacht! Anstöpseln, Sample Rate abdrehen und einen unglaublich trockenen Ton erzielen, der alle tiefen Frequenzen unfassbar authentisch beibehält.  Mit dem Malekko BIT DSP aus der Omicron Serie liefert das Unternehmen aus Oregon ein ultra leicht zu bedienendes Pedal, das aufwendig gestaltete Bit Crusher ganz einfach in den Schatten stellt. Lediglich zwei Regler benötigt das Pedal: BIT und MIX. Den Rest macht die extra feine Technik im Inneren, die stufenlose Einstellungen von 100 % Wet zu 100 % Dry Sound erlaubt. Wer seine Harmonien in unglaublich professioneller Weise gezielt übersteuern lassen und verzerren will, der muss dieses Pedal ausprobieren!

Ekko 616 Dark Delay

ekko 616 dark delay

We worked with Colin Newman of Wire on this unique design and the colors are inspired by his Eastwood Signature Model electric guitar.

THICKEN has 2 selectable multi-tap delay modes plus a separate chorus, for three delay lines total. Spread determines the delay times, and increasing the spread exponentially widens the delay times. With the addition of Preamp, these controls result in mind-blowing, thicker sounds that any serious player needs.

Two modes of SPREAD time: Exponential and Random, selected by holding down the stomp at power connection. In Random mode, the SPREAD control adjusts between smooth and aggressive time transitions.

A brief history of the Wolftone pedals: in the early 2000’s, our friends Studio Electronics released two superb Todd Wolfgram designed effect pedals, the Wolftone HELIUM and Wolftone CHAOS. These pedals have since earned almost mythical status due to their intense distortions and unique sounds which were unlike anything else available as well as their rarity.

Todd worked closely with Malekko to update the original CHAOS without modifying any sonic aspect of this celebrated pedal. Now running on a ‘standard’ 9v neg tip adapter, the CHAOS is an all analog distortion pedal with many extremes. The Dimension and Hair switches combined with pickup selection and playing dynamics allow sweeping filter and ring modulation effects coupled with majestic octave and higher-overtones for an incredible sonic palette. This is a pedal with a glorious reputation and for good reason!
