Chicago Rat

DISTORTION
FUZZ
BITCRUSHER
Description
We wanted to create a circuit from scratch that was somewhere along the lines of an old school style distortion or a vintage fuzz….. so we did both in one killer box! In short, the Chicago Rat is a 2 stage op amp gain pedal with selectable modes for either high gain distortion, or nasty over clipped fuzz with a starve control knob to take it all the way to sputtering filth. Gnar Gnar to the nines… straight outta the gutter.
The distortion side (Normal) is hot rodded crunchy gain with lots of output. The starve control (Bleed) is defeated in this setting. Crank it up and blast away.
The fuzz setting (Rabid) adds gain and tons of clipping along with engaging the Bleed section to allow ample adjustment of just how disgusting you want it to sound. You’ll hear the texture and gating increase as you turn it clockwise.Media
