The Glitch Witch auto-modulated logic fuzz is your retro-futurist companion for exploring the sonically aberrant boundaries between order and chaos, pitch and rhythm.

At the robotic heart of this 100% analog pedal is a fast, fun, and heavy AF CMOS fuzz. Its all-original and unconventional circuit can achieve massive, modern, full-spectrum gated fuzz, yet can also harken back to the roar, grind and grit of an under-biased MKII Tone Bender. The real frenzy ensues when frequency dividers are integrated into the fuzz engine, producing a matrix of musical possibilities, including sub-octave, bit crush, harmonic glitch, ring modulation, pulse, strobe and chop effects.

When the frequency dividers are active, all rhythmic effects and modulation rates are locked to subsonic divisions of the notes and pitches of the input source. A high pitched note will be modulated more quickly and a low note more slowly. In this way, Glitch Witch evokes the “Rhythmicon” concept, devised by Leon Theremin and Henry Cowell in the 1930s, which illuminates the fluid gradient within the phenomenon we humans perceive distinctly as pitch and rhythm.

The purity of logic and mathematics will fuse with the chaos of nature as they are together heated by overwhelming amounts of gain to form a searing singularity of sound! The result is as aggressive as it is delightful, as intuitive as it is surprising.

…it’s everything but subtle!

Features:

• 100% analog signal path
• True-bypass
• Relay based “smart” switching with intuitive latching and momentary switching capabilities
• GATE controls fuzz pre-gain for more gating, or conversely, more sustain.
• HI and LO controls form a dual-band tone stack for tonal flexibility. Achieve scoops, mid-bumps, searing highs, booming lows, and everything in between
• LEVEL sets the output volume of the fuzz
• CLEAN sets the output volume of the parallel clean path
• DIVIDE activates an alternative voice in which frequency dividers are integrated into the fuzz
• VOICE selects 3 styles of divider effects, including amplitude modulation/ring-mod, crude frequency modulation, and pitch track instability
• DIVISOR and DEPTH set the rate of frequency division and the depth of modulation.
• Stunning faceplate artwork by GOLDSUIT
• Housed in a standard 1590BB enclosure, measuring 3.7"x4.7"
• Top-mounted input/output/power jacks for a pedalboard-friendly footprint
• Requires a standard 9-volt center-negative “boss style” power supply. Consumes approximately 25ma.
• Every pedal is lovingly handmade in Massachusetts, USA
