Barracuda

ToadWorks Barracuda ® is a modern take on the analog BBD flanger. Using currently available components, ToadWorks has created a sonically superior reproduction of the original unit, with none of the hassle associated with obsolete parts.

One of the most significant improvements is the stereo output. When used in mono mode, the top output jack provides the famous flanger sound you know and love. Inserting a plug into the bottom output jack splits the signal for stereo reproduction, creating a aural phenomenon that cannot be duplicated with a mono sound source.

Barracuda ® is designed for use with an Expression Pedal - Connecting the Expression Pedal to the Exp. Pedal jack will disable the LFO, and the expression pedal becomes a manual sweep controller.

The switch turns the effect on and off, the Level knob controls the signal strength, the Depth knob controls the amount of effect present in the signal, the Regen knob controls the amount of signal regeneration, and the Rate knob increses/decreases the speed.

Barracuda ® features a true-bypass circuit, keeping your tone crystal clear when bypassed. Each pedal is carefully manufactured by hand, using only the finest components.

Toadworks Phantasm Phaser

A 9V battery operated, analogue, Phantasmd, dynamic phaser with a Center-Axis control pedal (whew!). With three basic modes of operation, stunning clarity, and ultra-low noise floor, the Phantasm is right for stage or studio.

ToadWorks Phantasm is the world's first 9V battery operated, analogue, vactrol-based, dynamic phaser with a Center-Axis control pedal (whew!). With three basic modes of operation, stunning clarity and an uparalleled feature set, ToadWorks Phantasm is truly in a class of it's own.

The end product of three years of development, Phantasm offers studio-quality phasing at a fraction of the cost. In fact, no other battery-powered phaser comes close to the range of features available on the Phantasm.

Simple to use, ToadWorks Phantasm is a sophisticated phase shift effect, with a smooth operation and low noise floor that will amaze the most die-hard digital fans. Every combination of guitar and effect will have a slightly different response, and the sensitivity and operation will always vary to some degree, so expect the unexpected.

More Details:
Solar Essence
Phantasm utilizes vactrols both in the signal and control path, resulting in remarkably smooth, ridiculously quiet operation, and the fact that it runs on 9V batteries makes it all the more miraculous. Phantasm sets the standard for noise floor in analog phaser pedals, proving that analog phasers don't have to be noisy.

Cacophony Angstrom
Phantasm is 100% pure Analog phaser. The only digits on this baby are the ones connected to your hands. Go from a light cream smoothie to hopped-up, caffeine laden grind with a swift turn of the Feedback knob for that swooshy 70's sound. Go slow, go fast. Make the sweep window wide, make it narrow. Go shallow, go deep. Control the sweep and depth dynamically. Re-center the whole freakin' sweep window, if you feel like it. Phantasm does all this and more, and no other analog phaser pedal on the planet can make the same claim. Period.

Fugacious Synchronicities
Phantasm incorporates simplicity of design with a full-figured feature set, the centerpiece being the attack controlled modes. With Phantasm's Attack Controlled Depth (ACD) and Attack Controlled Sweep (ACS) you can increase OR decrease both the Depth and Sweep based on how hard you hit the strings. Each mode has it's own activation switch and sensitivity control - hit the ACD switch, and it will activate the ACD mode (in this mode, the Depth control setting serves as the start point), providing envelope-controlled depth on demand. It's the same with ACS - it enhances the LFO operation (in this mode, the Rate control setting serves as the start point), and the sweep becomes variably controlled by your signal amplitude. Both dynamic modes can be used together for a truly unique sound. Additionally, both dynamic strategies can be used in forward (play soft:less effect, play loud:more effect) or reverse (play soft:more effect, play loud:less effect) modes, and each Sensitivity knob is bi-directional (Full clockwise=Forward, full counter-clockwise=Reverse, 12:00 is the null setting). It even has a control input, in case you want to control the envelope follower with an external (or uncompressed instrument) signal.

Phantasmagoria Fantastico
You're thinking "sure, it does alot of stuff, so do alot of phasers." You're also thinking "so it's quiet - so are a few others." Then you start to think "but it runs on 9V.... that's pretty cool." Well, you'd better sit down and put on your thinking cap. Phantasm is the only 9V, vactrol-based dynamic analog phaser pedal EVER to have a Zero Frequency (ZF) adjustment control. All phasers begin and end their shift cycle at a fixed point, and regardless of the width of the sweep window (the range of affected frequencies), the ZF remains fixed. With Phantasm's Center control, ToadWorks has changed all that. Now you can move the ZF up and down the entire frequency range!!! This feature, combined with skillful use of the Width and Depth controls, allows the user to alter the ZF on a fixed range of shift. Within the available frequency spectrum, this means a nearly infinite number of possible combinations. If the ZF is moved to either extreme edge of the frequency range, the phase shift will be clipped, resulting in a 180 degree shift. To the ear this will sound vaguely like a variable high (or low, depending on which extreme you set the Center control to) pass tremelo effect.

ToadWorks Phantasm is hand wired, by people, not machines. From our high quality 3PDT switches to the custom made machined aluminum knobs, every component is the finest available, making ToadWorks

Redux

The ToadWorks Redux is a new guitar effect pedal takes the concept of delay in a whole new direction - two directions, actually. Redux is an asynchronous delay, providing a combination of single, phased and multi-tap delays all in one very small package. Redux has been tested and used with a wide range of amplifiers, including tube, solid state and hybrid, and the results are always the same. If regular old delay is leaving your tone flat, Redux will make it fly.

Every combination of guitar and amp will have a slightly different EQ, output, etc., and the sound will always vary to some degree, so expect the unexpected.

What's so great about it?

Once...At it's heart, Redux is a single stream digital delay effect. Delay time, Decay, and effect Level are are adjustable via the big shiny knobs. We've designed Redux for a fixed rate of signal degredation, to better enulate an analog delay, but unlike analog delays, Redux offers more than 500 ms of delay, and nearly infinite repeats.

Twice...Along side the primary delay path is a second, parallel delay path. Identical in every way, this second delay path can be switched on and off. But what's the point, you ask? This secondary delay signal can be time-offset either forward or backward, up to 100 ms! Go from slight phase shift to ping-pong delay effect with one quick turn of a knob.

Three times, a Delay... (sorry, we couldn't help it)

As with all ToadWorks pedals Redux is wired for true-bypass, but even when its on, it won't suck your tone! The clean (unaffected) path is crystal clear, with perfect unity gain. What goes in is exactly what comes out; If you want color, get some Crayons.

Redux is hand wired, by people, not machines. From our high quality 3PDT switches to the custom made machined aluminum knobs, every component is the finest available, making ToadWorks pedals the most well-built and reliable effect pedals in the world.

How is it made?

Design
ToadWorks Redux is a unique digital delay with exceptional clarity, long delay time, and nearly infinite repeats. It's uniqueness comes from an asynchronous second delay signal merged with the original delay. This pairing creates a slightly time-shifted signal, producing a subtle phase-shift effect on the delayed signal only - the original signal is unaffected.

Operation
The switch turns the effect on and off, the left most knob ("Delay") controls the time between repeats, the middle-left knob ("Decay") controls the number of repeats, the middle-right knob ("Offset") increses/decreases the secondary delay time in contrast to the primary delay (you may also click this control completely off, leaving only the primary delay), and the far-right knob controls the overall delayed signal level. Click here for the product manual.

Manufacturing
Redux features a true-bypass circuit, keeping your tone crystal clear ad infinitum. Each pedal is carefully manufactured by hand, using only the finest components. The box is custom made to ToadWorks specifications, the switch is the highest quality 3PDT we could find, the jacks are Switchcraft. The knobs are solid machined aluminum, custom made specifically for ToadWorks. Capacitors are a mix of mylar & electrolytic, resistors are a mix of carbon and metal film, transistors are silicon - none of these decisions was made based on cost, they were made purely for sound and reliability.

Meat

It's Big.
It's a little large for a boost, but it has to be! Chock full of big ol' mylar caps, switched pots and op-amps, MEAT is everywhere you want to be. This is no ordinary boost pedal. MEAT delivers a big, fat boost with dipped highs - OR it can be used as crisp, clean boost - OR it can be used as a combination of the two! That's right - you get to mix and match the amount of Fat versus Clean signal. And if you find the perfect mix, but it's not loud enough? Never fear, MEAT is here! Simply use the Level control to increase the overall boost level without disrupting your perfect Fat/Clean mix. MEAT doesn't just boost - it makes your guitar sound BETTER.

It's Bad.
To paraphrase Rudy Ray Moore, this pedal is out of sight. Got a weak signal? Need to increase the output of that Vintage Strat without destroying it's unique character? Meet MEAT. Both the Fat and Clean controls click on and off, allowing you to completely remove either channel from the circuit. Want a pure clean boost, with no increased low end? Simply click the Fat control off. Want that thickness without increasing the high end? Click the Clean control off. It's just that easy.

It's the Best Boost You Ever Had.
MEAT is assembled and tested, by real humans with guitars. From the high quality 3PDT switches to our custom made machined aluminium knobs, every component is the finest available, making ToadWorks pedals the most well-built and reliable effect units in the world. So grab your MEAT and boogie.

Death Rattle

ToadWorks Death Rattle is a dual mode distortion device. It consists of two completely separate circuits, as well as a third "fat" boost circuit, capable of increasing both the volume and the sustain. The two modes do dead-on impressions of both 50's era Fender Tweed and 60's era Marshall Plexi amplifiers. Each mode was designed to emulate a very specific sound, giving bedroom players and working musicians an affordable, reliable method of reproducing the tone of these highly prized amplifiers.

The Tweed circuit is transistor based, and is designed to give smooth, rounded breakup, and to be extremely sensitive to attack, just like a vintage Fender amp. The Plexi circuit uses an op-amp do simulate the higher gain, marshallesqe sound - it's smooth with lots of high end and scooped mids, with a nice, soft attack that is the signature of the 60's plexi.

Strange things were done when designing this pedal. Basic audio electronics rules were thrown out like Vanilla Ice at the Apollo Theater. Plus it has three large footswitches right on the top, providing hours of battery-free fun.

Toads go squish - but your tone doesn't have to.

Mr Ed

ToadWorks Mr. Ed is a new guitar effect pedal that emulates the elusive "Brown" sound by providing a clear, transparent overdrive that is both dynamic and responsive. Mr. Ed has been tested and used with a wide range of amplifiers, including both tube, solid state and hybrid, and it delivers the goods every time.

Is it perfect? No, it is not - nothing is perfect, and even if it was, every combination of guitar and amp will have a slightly different eq, output, etc., and the sound will always vary to some degree. This pedal provides an effective duplication of the crunchy, edgy overdrive that defined the Brown Sound, yet remains transparent enough that your guitar sound shines through.

For years, guitarists have sought after that elusive sound, eventually coming to realize that it simply cannot be achieved without spending large sums on vintage gear.

Versatility
Mr Ed has a wide range of distortion, from bluesy overdrive to smooth metal crunch with a single turn of the "Brown" control (click here for an explanation). Go from an edgy rhythm sound to soaring leads without changing a thing - the pedal actually reacts differently based on signal amplitude, creating a slightly different sound based on HOW you play. Just like a tube amp, Mr. Ed breaks up smoothly - even at full effect, playing softly produces no distortion. No other non-tube effect pedal in the world can make this claim.

Flexibility
Mr. Ed doesn't just distort. In addition to the "Brown" control, you can control the tone and volume of the effect. Mr. Ed has quite a kick - by increasing the "Level" control, you can dramatically boost the signal level, in effect making Mr. Ed a lead boost.

Reliability
Mr. Ed is hand wired, point-to-point - no printed circuit boards in here. From the Fulltone 3PDT switches to the machined aluminum knobs, every component is the finest available, making Mr. Ed the most well-built and reliable effect pedal in the world!

Now, the revolution is at hand - witness Mr. Ed!!! able effect pedal in the world.
