KMA Audio Machines Fuzz Pedal
The KMA Mandrake Octo-Shrieker is an analog octave-up and fuzz pedal that impresses with its extreme flexibility and intuitive operation. The transistor-based effect pedal from the stompbox tinkerers in Berlin's Karl-Marx-Allee offers an adjustable 2nd-order filter that tames overly harsh overtones and also influences the Tracking to provide everything from warm, synth-like sounds to screaming leads. The Timbre control provides additional adjustment options for the octave-up gain: turned all the way to the left, it produces a gentle crunch, while turned all the way up, it produces an absolute fuzz storm. Last but not least, the two smaller Dry and Oct+ controls regulate the signal component of the dry signal and the added octave.
