New EHX fuzz pedal thing:
Quote:
The Ripped Speaker is a modern fuzz with old school roots and pays homage to one of the ways that early, distorted guitar and bass sounds were made. At low fuzz settings the pedal emulates the lo-fi distortion sounds of yesteryear, the kinds of sounds created by a razor blade applied to a speaker cone, a loose tube or a faulty channel on a recording console. When you crank the fuzz up the sound is transformed. It’s modern and monumental with a searing, fully saturated, fuzz tone.
The Ripped Speaker’s RIP knob is a bias control which sets the amount of clipping at the top and bottom of the signal wave form. It adds a lot of versatility and lets you tailor the character of the fuzz. Noon is neutral, a position where the fuzz is perfectly biased… fat, with a great low end and top end bite without being harsh. As you turn the knob clockwise the pedal produces a hard gating effect and the signal sputters and chokes. It’s great for creating a dying battery effect. Turning the knob CCW produces yet a different style of fuzz with a smoother gating effect where the signal fades out quickly.
The Ripped Speaker’s TONE control is active and delivers a tilt-shift type EQ. That means at noon the EQ is flat. As you turn the knob counter-clockwise the frequency response gets darker with more pronounced lows and less highs. Going clockwise yields a brighter tone with more highs and rolled back lows.
The Ripped Speaker features true bypass switching, comes equipped with a 9 Volt battery and accepts a standard EHX 9 Volt power supply.

I don’t have an opinion about the pedal but that massive wank he’s playing at the beginning of the demo makes me want to never pick up a guitar again. _________________

It sounds like me trying out any drive pedal, pretty embarrassing. I don't even write/play music like this, but it's like lotus eating or something.
That said, that FIRST line before the buttrock powerchords is sick _________________ andrew floss musics

So is this a TornsPeaker clone?
Was wondering this myself, but they should have asked me, that fucker stopped selling as soon as we tricked out the feature set. _________________ High quality, low popularity Ecstatic Fury
