Think retro. Think synth sounds of early game consoles. Think the beginning of the computer age. The Electro Harmonix Mainframe Bitcrusher gives you these sounds at your fingertips. And even better you can create totally new sounds with it – your own retro style. With a sample rate reduction ranging from 48kHz to 110Hz and a bit depth reduction ranging from 24 bit to 1 bit you can create those sounds that are degraded in quality but are just super cool to play. The secondary controls this pedal is equipped with including the peak frequency and blend knobs allow you to make your sound unique. And dont worry about forgetting your settings either the programmable preset mode lets you save your sound so you can always come back to it. Show off your guitar skills but in a completely distinctive way.
Shape your sound Though technology might have been slow back in the early stages of gaming and computing that doesn’t mean you can’t recreate those sounds using advanced features. The selectable high/low/band-pass filter of the Electro Harmonix Mainframe Bitcrusher enable you to warp you sound until it embodies the perfect level of Pac Man-esque vibes. This is achieved through the way the pedal allows you to adjust the bit crushing and sample rate levels. Then use the secondary controls to really finetune your sound. The possibilities of an expression pedal Go from a sparkling clean sound to one which has a reduced sample rate and bit depth. The capabilities are infinite. You will be amazed at how one sound can be transformed into something completely different. And using the expression pedal adds to this warping of sound whilst also making it incredibly easy to do so. Being able to connect an external expressional pedal gives you the freedom to control the Mainframe remotely allowing you to make changes whilst playing with no hindrance to your sound. Innovative technology One of the most compelling features of the Mainframe Bitcrusher is the sample rate tuning mode. This mode enables you to control the sample rate to any pitch by playing it on guitar. The result? A retro-style synth and digital sound that truly is reminiscent of the games you loved in the ‘90s. It also means you can set the sample rate to match the key of a song – a useful feature when practising specific tracks. The Bitcrusher can also track your input signal in real time and set the sample rate to match. The innovation really is incredible. If you want a sound that makes you reminisce about the ‘old-school’ games then look no further than the Electro Harmonix Mainframe Bitcrusher.
