Mattoverse Electronics Introduces the AirTrash Effects Pedal
Mattoverse Electronics has unveiled the AirTrash, which they say “is a pedal for guitar or bass that sounds like absolute garbage.” Its gnarly sounds could be described as a fuzz, but it’s not based on any known fuzz circuit, they say, adding it’s not for everybody.
“Breadboard explorations and integrated circuit abuse led to the discovery of some absolutely sickening sounds,” Mattoverse writes. “All attempts to wrangle and refine this sonic savagery proved fruitless and the decision was made to let it be the simple, impractical, and disgusting beast that it is.”
The blue knob controls the output level, but Mattoverse explains the red and yellow knobs are harder to define. Instead of words, they used icons to “illustrate what words could not describe.” Hear what the AirTrash sounds like on bass:
The Mattoverse Electronics AirTrash is available now in limited supplies for $119.
