Atomizer

Project overview

An atom is the basic unit of an element, and the Atomizer should be a basic unit in your pedalboard. This board has gorgeous sustain, full of harmonics and sizzle, and it can cut through in a loud, live, band setting.

The gain control is incredibly interactive, allowing for intense over-the-top octave-up leads, wooly gainy rhythm, or a very controllable CHUNKA CHUNKA.

Introduction

This pedal could be described as everything the Big Muff wishes it could be! Besides its remarkable capability to cut through in any setting, it has a gorgeous sustain full of harmonically rich tonal characteristics. 

One of the things I love about the Atomizer is the excellent response of its gain control. Its interactives allow intense over the top octavia-style leads, wooly gainy rhythm. You can also pull it back all the way to get just enough grit without being too gated. 

A circuit that offers a huge low-end presence that works equally for bass as guitar, making it perfect for psych-rock, stoner metal, or shoegaze. Our latest version comes with the addition of a 2 pole dip4 switch for the Oscilation mod that will grant you a deeper level of complexity to your tone possibilities.

You will not need much tweaking of your amp, guitar, or pedalboard. The Atomizer will get you where you want to in no time.
