Gears is many things, an overdrive, sub octave generator, and resonant filter with expression pedal input. What it means for the player is a device that allows you to emulate many familiar synth sounds, as well as create brand new ones.

The overdrive is a fixed sound that can be mixed from silent to LOUD. This signal is fed into a clock divider, which puts out a Square wave (or two) we can mix into the output. This audio travels on to the aggressive filter section. There’s also a drive control allowing you to play nice with the filter, or just slam audio up against it. The filter also sneaks into self oscillation, for a little bit of extra noise, if you so desire.

The expression pedal input allows foot control over the „Freq“ knob, and is the most magic trick in this new box. Electronic „wubs“ familiar „wahs“ and plenty of other new sounds are effortlessly dialed in and modulated with your foot.

Gears

Seit gut 10 Jahren hat Dwarfcraft das Eau Claire Thunder Effektpedal in der Mache. Es ist grundlegend ein Big Muff Distortion bzw. Fuzz. Die Gold Standard Version hat aber ein paar Eigenheiten, die unter Fans sicher für offene Münder sorgen könnten.

The Dwarfcraft Eau Claire Thunder is the result of my wish to rectify a few issues I’ve had with other muff-style fuzz boxes, notably a mid scoop.
“But Old Pal Aen, some times I need to scoop teh midz for my metal tonez!”
While I can’t say that I ever find that useful, ECT will do that as well. When stomping on the “BYPASS” switch, you will be in familiar fuzzbox territory. Volume, Tone, and Distortion are all active, as well as the “TIMEWARP” toggle, which flips between the traditional hi-fi type sound and a more blunted, ummm, stoner-rocky type sound.
“TONEBLAST” bypasses the tone control, giving you more mids and a bunch more volume. At any time, you can tap the “feedback” stomper to trigger a momentary integrated feedback loop, because I like noise.

Manual

Eau Claire Thunder

The Dwarfcraft Devices Necromancer is a classic Fuzz effect pedal for electric Guitar/Bass, with a dark undercurrent. The Middle frequency of the Mids control was set as low as possible and provided with a midrange switch to allow additional adjustments. It is also possible to bypass the entire equalizer section with an EQ switch. The innovative Old-School Fuzz has an extremely adaptable EQ is of course also ideal for use with basses or synthesizers. As an additional optical highlight, the Dwarfcraft Devices Necromancer has been equipped with a loving Evil Wizard artwork by Metalocalypse designer SMO.
