The Amptweaker SwirlPool

[TheOndrakGuy]

I did a bit of digging and found this:

The Sonar™ is a tremolo/machine pulser that will work with higher-gain amps, which is always a challenge.
The key to this type of device is achieving absolute dead silence during the “off” time, and my engineer Joel
totally pulled that off. You can easily use the Sonar BEFORE a fuzz or heavy distortion, or a very distorted amp.
Plus it has a lot of special features that you’re going to love. The Sonar has four knobs and three small switches
as well as two stomp switches. Here are the different modes:
1] Clean tremolo with tap tempo. One small switch allows changing time division between 1, 2 and 4, so the
tap rate can be matched one-to-one, doubled, or quadrupled. There’s a volume, a speed knob if you prefer to set
speed that way, and duty knob which controls the duty cycle (“on” time versus “off” time, so you can get down to very short chopped trem sounds.)
2] Machine tremolo with tap tempo, selected with the clean/machine switch. All of the above features, but the Machine pedal sound is now pulsing out of the
Sonar. Just imagine how that will sound coming out of your higher-gain amp. If you’ve ever experienced a machine going through a fuzz or distortion, you’re
aware of just how searing it sounds. This was the original intent with the Sonar, to give users who like dirty basic sounds the ability to sound more “penetrating” with a tremolo. Like the original Machine, the Sonar’s internal machine decays and creates that hazy rotating sound as the trem pulses on.
3] As if that isn’t weird enough, there’s another switch and knob to get super freaky-licious. This switch has three positions... the features above were described with this switch in the middle. When it’s switched to the right (“up”), there’s a knob labeled “delta” that you set how quickly the tremolo speeds up
once it’s turned on. The trem will start at the rate you chose with the speed knob or tap switch, and speed up at your chosen “delta” rate until it’s screaming
fast. In the same manner, the trem speed can slow down to a dead crawl at any chosen rate by switching the selector to the “down” position (to the left). You
can recover the original speed by turning off and on the pedal, or simply by tapping the tap tempo switch which instantly brings it back to whatever speed you
like. This speed up/slow down feature works with both the clean and machine trem sounds described above.

Colour me intrigued indeed. I should imagine the rest of the "crazy pedals for pissing off other bandmates" crowd will be liking this too.

Ah yes, I should have posted it here as well

So vex decided to stash all those little inventobox boards into a case, call it a dual box of rock, and profit. Wise but lol.

Awesome. I appreciate the love MXR has been giving low enders with the Bass Innovations line. Great product line, great company. I still need to try that compressor, fuck.

Sounds pretty good. I wish he had turned the dry all the way down, even just for a minute, so I could hear what just the fuzz sounds like. Because even a 10% clean blend sounds poopy in my setup.

I MUST KNOW WHAT THE NEW EARTHQUAKER SHIT IS

[DiscoFreq]

I know now too, I just have to wait until the 19th.

It already was the 19th (here in Belgium) when I received it (1.5h ago) but I'll wait a few hours
