Worship bass dual signal V2 alternative

Heitor Rosa

Year of The Rat is a faithful reproduction of the absolute classic released by ProCo in 1985. It is a version of the Rat known as Whiteface. It is the most desired version of the pedal among guitarists, and features the legendary LM308 chip, manufactured (and now discontinued) by Motorola. In the signal path, some Whiteface units feature tantalum capacitors in place of electrolytic capacitors, which offers longer-lasting operation and a more balanced treble response.

Just like its original counterpart, the Year of the Rat offers a wide range of tones: its gain control goes from a light crunch, through classic overdrive tones, distortion to a fuzz in the vein of Big Muffs, with the difference of a voicing with midrange to appear in the mix. The Filter control works in the opposite direction to the traditional tone control, cutting highs, and the more gain you add, the more necessary it is to close the control to restore the clarity and definition of the notes.

Der EHX Bass Micro Synthesizer ist ein reiner Bassgitarren-Synthesizer mit vollständig analoger Schaltung. Einstellbare Synthesizer-Parameter erzeugen satte, kraftvolle Klänge aus einer anderen Welt.  

Die Voice-Mix-Sektion ermöglicht die Mischung aus vier verschiedenen Stimmen: Sub-Octave, Guitar, Octave und Square Wave. Besonders die Square Wave sorgt für den charakteristischen, fuzzigen Klang des Bass Micro Synthesizers, der an den kosmischen Sound der 70er Jahre erinnert.  

Mit der Attack-Decay-Steuerung lassen sich gestrichene Effekte oder bedrohliche Lautstärkeschwankungen erzeugen, während die Filter-Sweep-Sektion das gesamte Frequenzspektrum durchläuft – von schnellen, präzisen Schnitten von Hoch nach Tief bis hin zu langsamen, fließenden Anstiegen von Tief nach Hoch.

The EHX Bass Micro Synthesizer is a pure bass guitar synthesizer with all analog circuitry. Adjustable synth parameters deliver fat, sweet tones from another world.

Its voice mix section lets you bring in 4 different voices: Sub Octave, Guitar, Octave, and Square Wave. The Square Wave gives the Bass Micro Snythesizer its signature, fuzzy growl that calls back to the cosmic ’70s .

An Attack Decay control creates bowed effects or ominous volume swells while the Filter Sweep section sweeps through the full frequency spectrum for sound from quick high to low chops and slow low to high blooms.

Welch schönes Thema doch Effekte und Amps sind, nicht wahr? Seit den ersten Bodentretern Mitte des vergangenen Jahrhunderts faszinieren sich fast alle Gitarrist:innen für die Boxes of Goodness. Seit der Einführung der Digitaltechnik in die Effektgerätbranche werden die Kisten heiß diskutiert. Gerade die Modeling-Technik und später das Capturing/Profiling lösen immer wieder große und lange Diskussionen in den Online-Portalen (oder am heimischen Gitarren-Stammtisch) aus.

"Upgrade" is more than a 7-letter word. It embodies the continuation and evolvement beneath
the surface, and embraces revolution and creativity outside the box.
It’s what Ampero II Stomp does. Throughout years of grinding to establish its core technologies
from empirical practice, Hotone team proudly presents this soul partner for your
sophisticated taste in the sound of the music.

POLYTUNE 3 NOIR is destined to become the favorite mini pedal tuner for those going for a darker, more monochromatic manner of expression. Sometimes you want to keep things understated, classical. The midnight black powder coating compliments the stylistically oriented pedalboard – while keeping your signal crisp and your tone in tune.

Die JHS Colour Box V2 ist ein Preamp / DI-Box nach dem Vorbild legendärer Neve Studio-Konsolen. Das Pedal wurde entwickelt um den authentischen Sound eines Instruments (oder Mikrofons) am Direct-In der Mischpulte zu reproduzieren, dabei bietet die Colour Box V2 alle Features der beliebten V1-Version und kommt zusätzlich mit einer Vielzahl an Verbesserungen und neuen Features, die das Pedal zu einem perfekten Allrounder und Always-On Pedal für alle denkbaren Instrumente und sogar für Sänger machen. Zu den neuen Features zählen eine erweiterte EQ-Sektion, ein Hi/Lo Schalter für massiven, cleanen Headroom und die Möglichkeit 48V Phantom-Power an Kondensator-Mikrofone weiterzugeben. Die Gain-Sektion (Rot) bietet Regelmöglichkeiten Master, Pre-Vol und Step. Master kontrolliert das Gesamt-Volume des Pedals, Pre-Vol arbeitet als Gain-Regler zwischen den beiden internen Gain Stages und bietet bei Bedarf eine Verzerrung, die von leichten Break-Up-Sounds bis zu Fuzz reicht. Der Step-Regler verändert das Gain der Preamp Stages in fünf Schritten. Der Hi/Lo Schalter verändert den cleanen Headroom des Pedals, der -20 dB Pad Schalter passt den Input bei Bedarf an Mikrofone mit einem hohen Ausgangspegel an. Die EQ-Sektion (Blau) wurden neben den bekannten Regler für Treble, Middle und Bass (+/- 17 dB Cut / Boost in jedem Band) um drei Shift-Regler erweitert, die den Frequenzbereich der einzelnen Regler anpassen. Die Hi-Pass-Sektion wird über den Kippschalter aktiviert. Um das Pedal so flexibel wie möglich zu halten steht ein kombinierter XLR/TRS Input zur Verfügung.

The JHS Colour Box V2 has all the same functionality of the popular V1 version with many new and improved additions like expanded EQ controls, a Hi/Lo switch for massive clean headroom, and the ability to pass phantom power to your condenser mics. The Gain section in red has three controls: Master, Pre-Vol, and Step. The Master volume controls the overall volume of the unit. The Pre-Vol controls the amount of gain between the two internal gain stages. This acts as a "drive" or "gain" control, adding more grit, distortion, and even fuzz as you increase the gain. The Step control increases the gain of each preamp stage in five stages. Rotating the Step knob from left-to-right will increase the gain by the following: 1st is +18 dB, 2nd is +23 dB, 3rd is +28 dB, 4th is +33 dB, 5th is +39 dB. The JHS Colour Box V2 has a new Hi/Lo switch to control the amount of clean headroom you have available. In the Lo mode, you will easily be able to get ultra clean sounds without breakup. Lo Mode is excellent for tone shaping when distortion is not needed. In the Hi mode, the Colour Box V2 will distort much more readily, giving you a broad spectrum of overdrive, distortion, and fuzz sounds. In addition to the Hi / Lo gain switch, there is a -20 dB pad switch on the right side of the Colour Box V2. This function only works when in XLR input mode and can help tame the volume for high output microphones. The EQ section in blue has three new Shift controls correlating to its standard Treble, Middle and Bass controls. The Shift knobs adjust the range of frequencies that the Treble, Middle, and Bass knobs control. The center frequencies for the Shift knobs are Treble 10kHz, Middle 1kHz, and Bass 120Hz, while the Treble, Middle, and Bass knobs boost or cut with +/- 17 dB of control. If you want to boost high-mid frequencies, turn the Mid Shift knob to 3 o'clock or above and increase the Middle knob above 12 o'clock. If you want to cut upper treble frequencies, turn the Treble Shift knob to 3 o'clock or above and set the Treble knob below 12 o'clock. The Shift knobs give you precision control over the EQ for anything you put through the Colour Box V2. The Hi-Pass section is enabled by the toggle switch below the Hi-Pass knob. Just flip it up to engage the Hi-Pass knob, which spans from 60Hz to 800Hz with a 6dB per octave slope. The Colour Box V2 has a combination XLR and 1/4" input jack to use either an instrument or microphone. Select your input with the input selector switch on the right side of the pedal labeled INST/XLR.

The Foxey Face by Collateral has its roots in the legendary Fuzz Face pedals, immortalized by Jimi Hendrix, David Gilmour, Eric Johnson, Bonamassa, and many other guitarists. Despite its seemingly simple circuit and operation, this type of circuit requires patience and many tests in selecting ideal transistor pairs. We have a large quantity and variety of classic transistors in stock (such as AC128, OC72, BC108, BC109), as well as numerous other models, from Japanese or Soviet origin, that bring wonderful tones with very low noise levels.

Kann man einen Klassiker verbessern? Nehmen wir an, in manchen Fällen ja. Das haben wir mit dem Demoiselle Chorus gemacht. Als wir über das Pedal nachdachten, wollten wir den satten Sound des alten Boss CE-2 mitbringen, aber noch einen Schritt weiter gehen. Nach vielen Tests war das Ergebnis ein warmer Refrain, der den 70er-Jahre-Touch, ein musikalisches und organisches Vibrato und die Möglichkeit bietet, spektakuläre Leslie-Sounds zu erzielen. Das alles in einem einzigen Pedal!

Das Geheimnis des Demoiselle Chorus liegt in der Klangamplitude, die von einer leichten Modulation ausgeht und eine viel höhere Effektgeschwindigkeit als beim alten CE-2 erreicht. Ein weiterer Unterschied ist der D/C/V-Regler (Dry/Chorus/Vibrato), der Ihnen die volle Kontrolle über den gewünschten Choranteil im Clean-Signal und umgekehrt ermöglicht.

Is it possible to improve a classic? Let's say that in some cases, yes. That's what we did with the Demoiselle Chorus. When we thought about the pedal, we wanted to bring the rich sound of the old Boss CE-2, but go further. After many tests, the result was a warm chorus, which brings that 70s flavor, a musical and organic vibrato and the possibility of achieving spectacular Leslie sounds. All this in a single pedal!

The secret of the Demoiselle Chorus is in the sound amplitude, which goes from a light modulation and reaches an effect speed much higher than the old CE-2. Another difference is the D/C/V (Dry/Chorus/Vibrato) control, which allows you to have full control of the amount of chorus you want in the clean signal and vice versa.

The Collateral FX Continuum OD pedal is a unique overdrive pedal that combines the legendary overdrive circuits of the Klon Centaur and the Tube Screamer TS-10. This pedal is designed to provide a wide range of tonal possibilities, from subtle, natural overdrive to more aggressive, distorted sounds.

The pedal’s circuitry is a fusion of the Klon Centaur’s high-gain, low-noise design and the Tube Screamer’s warm, dynamic overdrive. This combination allows the Continuum OD to deliver a rich, complex tone with a wide range of tonal possibilities.
