The Lovetone The Ringstinger is an analogue ring modulator and modulation processor built in England in the 1990s.
It is based around a balanced modulator circuit and includes an internal oscillator for classic ring modulation tones.
The pedal allows control over carrier frequency, modulation depth, and mix between dry and effected signal.
An envelope follower can influence the modulation, enabling dynamic, touch-responsive effects.
In addition to metallic and bell-like sounds, it can produce tremolo, sideband textures, and extreme experimental tones.
The large enclosure includes multiple footswitches for switching modulation modes and engaging additional functions.
