The Velvet ant is a very simple, yet great sounding LoFi pedal. I wanted something that would emulate an old phonograph. I designed this to include both analog & digital aspect, in order to build in random crackle & hiss. The gain was added to give a little grit, but it will never go into overdrive territory.
Controls: - Level: Adjusts the overall input audio volume - Gain: Adjusts the, er... gain - Noise: Volume control for the white noise - Crackle: Volume control for the independent crackle - Low: Removes the low end of the input signal - High: Removes the high end of the input signal
Additional information: - true bypass - top jacks & power
Fun Fact: While a velvet ant may look like a cute & fuzzy ant, its actually a wasp. Its sting is so powerful, it was dubbed the "cow killer".
