The Pro Co Sound Turbo RAT is a compact guitar distortion pedal designed for musicians seeking intense distortion effects. It is known for its role in the post-punk and indie rock movements due to its unparalleled palette of distortion. The pedal boasts more than twice the maximum output of the original RAT, providing hard-clipping while slightly scooping mid-range frequencies. This results in a less compressed, brighter tone that ensures the user is heard through the mix.
The Turbo RAT features the legendary RAT Filter control, allowing users to roll off brittle high-end frequencies by turning it to the right. Conversely, turning the Filter down allows the natural brightness of the instrument to shine through, aiding in cutting through the mix. The Distortion and Volume controls enable users to dial in the perfect amount of gain while maintaining consistency with the clean tone.
The pedal is designed around the musical distortion that made the RAT famous, retaining these qualities without sounding harsh. Additionally, true bypass switching guarantees that no extra noise will affect the signal when the pedal is turned off.
