Description

The Bal’Rog was born of fire and flame…but then came The Desolation!

This is a classic combination of pedals. We have one of the most widely used distortion circuits as our base effect, the RAT pedal but with a load of mods including LEDs in the clipping section, a toggle in the filter control for a more usable sweep and a re-bias of the OP07 opamp. The bass version is tuned to handle the low end without flubbing out.

The other half is a “Super” classic overdrive circuit, again utilizing LEDs and a circuit re-bias for tube like overdrive. A modified tone control gives us a usable, mid front warmth and our gain control provides a usable gain throughout the pot range and a stipped down BlackIce for the bass version.

The Overdrive is placed before the Distortion to boost its properties and provide a huge wall of sound. It will also shape the tone before it gets hits with the weight of the circuit.

This is truly a beast of a pedal. Stand by for demos and other information or sign up to the mailing list on the home page.
