The ZVEX Machine is a unique distortion pedal designed with a dual frequency- tripler circuit that utilizes crossover distortion, a feature unprecedented in guitar pedals. This design generates distortion in the sloped part of the cycle, rather than the peaks and valleys like traditional distorters and fuzzes. The pedal's dimensions are 4.70" x 2.38" x 1.82".
Key Features:
- Dual frequency-tripler circuit
- Crossover distortion for unique tonal characteristics
- Knobs for Drive, Limit, and Volume control
- Dynamic response higher than most pedals
- Low power consumption, drawing about 3 mA
- Power jack eliminates the need for a power plate
Functionality:
The Machine pedal is capable of creating a searing, sweeping knife-edge tone,
particularly when the input drive is set at a specific level. It offers the
ability to leave other distorting pedals on while adding a new element of
energetic grind. The pedal's dynamic response is higher than most, allowing
for unique tonal manipulation when combined with other effects pedals.
Use Cases:
The ZVEX Machine is suitable for guitarists seeking to explore unconventional
distortion and fuzz tones. It is designed to cut across the grain of
traditional fuzz and distortion tones, offering a distinct and disruptive
sound that can add a new dimension to a guitarist's sonic palette.
