The Kill Kill Filter is a dual filter pedal with a semi-truck of attitude! 2 identicle eq's can be switched back and forth on the fly for an endless seeming changing sounds as you play. Create a new lead sound and then another! Blast in a solo! Chunk out on a heavy riff! You call the shots! It's mean and evil and sounds absolutely amazing after a fuzz pedal creating some of the most seething intense tones ever heard!!!


So yeah, the last time APTBS played, I spoke to Oliver about whether he had plans for reissuing the Sound Saw and his response was a bit of a grin and that he might be working on something with similar DNA. Looks like this is what we've got. $150 is NOT bad for DBA either! Here's hoping sound clips come soon.

$150 is a lot better than "not bad" for DBA....

Must be a typo! ;)

I bought one because I'm pretty sure it's just an updated sound saw. And I've been gassing for a sound saw forever.

It seems better than the Sound Saw thanks to the gain knob that was exactly what the Sound Saw was missing. It's actually closer to the Armaggedon :)

I'm wondering about the definition of the word "identicle".

Kind of a bummer when I realized I could not have both of the filters on at once. Definitely cool to have a fair priced DBA and it looks great... but I never get it when pedals that have two aspects but you can't mix them together. I mean whats more 'kill'er than one filter? Filtering that filter with a filter. -insert xzibit image here-

shoot, there is probably an easy way to mod it so it could though...

What makes you say no Echo Dream? If it's because there's no dedicated page under 'pedals' on the site, there never was one for the box. Splash screen was the only link to get to it...hope they didn't discontinue it. The prices will jack higher and I'll never get to touch it.

I think if you'd combine this with the Apocalypse you'd get basically the Armageddon.

Seems like this is 2x of the left-side filter on the the Sound Saw, plus a gain knob. Since that's the filter I like better anyway... Hrmmm.

Well yeah that but you'd think that they'd update it if they were redoing icons for the rest of the site including the new pedal on the buy page. Plus wasn't it a small run to gauge interest and then everyone kinda hated it? Just seems strange not to have your most unique pedal on your page.

I sent an email off a while ago asking if it was possible to footswitch mod the fuzz and got told: "We might make the fuzz circuit foot switchable one day. The parts are pretty jam packed in there right now, but it's something we've thought of. It probably won't happen soon, so I'm sorry you'll have to keep bending down for now..." Doesn't sound like they're getting rid of it. Pure conjecture.

Tommasters could do the mod for you I'm sure with a PM. He put his up on the bst with that mod.

I've got the malekko 213 coming, and it may be between this and that depending on how we bond.

Although, expression controlled filter is a major plus!
