The Boosted Fuzz is Southampton Pedals' take on one of the classic pedal combinations.  Featuring a Rangemaster-style circuit as the front end of a Fuzz Face, this pedal provides a versatile fuzz that can go from velcro-ey to saturated and everywhere in between.

By using low-gain silicon transistors, the Boosted Fuzz retains a lot of the sonic characteristics of germanium fuzzes (excellent volume rolloff, smooth clipping, etc) with the stability and cost of a silicon pedal.  With the 'Pre' knob on full, the Boosted Fuzz is a full spectrum fuzz that saturates easily with tons of bass.  Rolling off the 'Pre' removes bass and mellows out the fuzz.  The 'Bias' knob will starve the circuit fully off, creating a velcroey fuzz, and will over-saturate the pedal fully on. The controls are incredibly interactive and can shape the fuzz in countless ways.   As with many versatile fuzzes, oscillation and noise will occur in some settings; the 'bias' knob can typically be used to kill the noise between notes.

Boosted Fuzz

The Fifth Gear is our take on a transistor OD which goes from barely-there overdrive to a distortion that toes the line of fuzz. The Fifth Gear can stand out on it's own, but also excels when pushing other pedals, or your amp, that extra bit further.

The 'gain' and 'heat' knobs are extremely interactive - with 'heat' off the 'gain' knob sets your drive level with a relatively flat EQ.  Turning up 'heat' will add some midrange and a lot more grit, pushing the overdrive into a huge wall of distortion.  The Fifth Gear has a passive volume roll off to tame the pedal when the other knobs are cranked.

Fifth Gear

Der Indie Dream ist unser erster Versuch, zwei unabhängige Effekte zu kombinieren.  Overdrive auf der rechten Seite, Delay und Reverb auf der linken Seite - beide Effekte können separat oder in Reihe verwendet werden.  Der Indie Dream hat alles, was man für einen Gig oder eine Jam braucht (außer einem Stimmgerät!).

Der Overdrive bietet einen knackigen OD mit einem riesigen Sweep an den Klangreglern.  Gitarre, Bass, Synthesizer - der Indie Dream lässt sich mit dem EQ an so ziemlich jedes elektrische Instrument anpassen.

Feedback- und Zeitregler für das Delay und ein Kippschalter zum Umschalten zwischen Feder- und Hallhall.  Der 'Mix'-Regler steuert den Pegel des Modulationssignals, während der trockene Pegel nicht beeinflusst wird.

The Indie Dream is our first take at combining two independent effects.  Overdrive on the right side, delay and reverb on the left - both effects can be used separately or in series.  The Indie Dream has everything you need for a gig or a jam (except a tuner!).

The overdrive features a gritty OD with a huge sweep on the tone controls.  Guitar, bass, synth - the Indie Dream can be EQ'd to work with pretty much any electric instrument.

Feedback and time controls for the delay and a toggle to switch between spring and hall reverb modes.  The 'Mix' knob controls the level of the modulation signal while the dry level is not affected.

Viele von uns haben das schon einmal erlebt: die Suche nach dem „richtigen“ Modulationssound.  Ein Pedal nach dem anderen mit endlosen Einstellmöglichkeiten und man hat ihn immer noch nicht gefunden.  Das ist der Moment, in dem man merkt: „Vielleicht bin ich kein Modulationsspieler“.  Klingt das ungefähr richtig? Dann ist das Utility Knife genau das richtige Pedal für dich!

Entstanden aus dem Bedürfnis einer Coverband nach Modulation und der Ungeduld mit 12-Knopf-Pedalen, bietet das Utility Knife 4 hochwertige Modulationseffekte in einem Format, das auf jedes Pedalboard passt.

Täuschen Sie sich nicht - dies sind keine 'billigen' Effekte.  Das Utility Knife bietet vier hochwertige Effekte, die so konzipiert sind, dass sie in allen Reglereinstellungen gut klingen, und zwar in einem echten Bypass-Setup mit oben angebrachten Buchsen.  Mit Flanger, Chorus, Tremolo und einem 6-stufigen Phaser könnte dies das einzige Modulationspedal sein, das Sie brauchen.

Many of us have been there before: the quest for the 'right' modulation sound.  Pedal after pedal with endless tweakability and you still haven't found "it".  That's when you realize "maybe I'm not a modulation player".  Sound about right? Then the Utility Knife is the pedal for you!

Born out of a cover band's need for modulation and impatience for 12-knob pedals, the Utility Knife brings 4 high-quality modulation effects in a format that will fit on any pedalboard.

Make no mistake - these are not 'cheap' effects.  The Utility Knife provides four high-quality effects that are designed to sound good in all control settings in a true bypass setup with top mounted jacks.  Featuring flange, chorus, tremolo, and a 6-stage phaser, this could be the only modulation pedal you need.
