In the 80s, big racks were all the rage, and guitarists would frequently stack effects in parallel to add more \"thickness\" to their sound. But this usually required multiple rack units and complex wiring systems to accomplish, with the end result being the size of an average fridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-guid=\"e58b8ecc-3166-417f-9bb3-683d2e195e37\"\u003eSwirls intends to give you the distilled essence of this specific sound, without the need for a loading dolly to transport all your gear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-guid=\"fca3d413-fbae-4725-997a-2873a8ec6f8f\"\u003eThe chorus is a fairly accurate emulation of the Dyno-my-piano Tri-Stereo chorus, but we tuned it against a Fulltone TERC unit, which is a more modern, but fully analog and authentic recreation of the original design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-guid=\"fca3d413-fbae-4725-997a-2873a8ec6f8f\"\u003eThe pitch shifter is based on the classic synchronous overlap-add methodology, used in units from Eventide, Digitech and many others, who have offered similar effect in the past. It produces a thick, chorus-like sound, but without the movement of a traditional chorus, caused by the low frequency oscillators used to modulate the signal in a chorus unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-guid=\"0315c1c9-b2cc-4f48-a28b-ef488ce8e427\"\u003eFinally, we have the compressor. It's a very fast and aggressive, feed-forward, RMS-detection design, loosely based on the dbx 160x. the compressor sits in front of the chorus and pitch shifter, and adds that signature \"pop\" to the sound, especially noticeable when playing a strat in the second position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-guid=\"0315c1c9-b2cc-4f48-a28b-ef488ce8e427\"\u003eIf the compressor is disabled (Ratio set to lowest setting) the pedal jumps into \"analog dry-thru mode\", sending the dry signal directly to the output, for zero latency and reduced noise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-guid=\"0315c1c9-b2cc-4f48-a28b-ef488ce8e427\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote -\u003c\/strong\u003e as of March 2026, we have re-labelled the left footswitch as \"A\/B\", whereas it was previously labelled \"Preset\".

Our pedal recreates the full functionality of the original, translating the original algorithms one processor instruction at a time, into modern computer code.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile the original Midiverb II had 100 Programs, many of them applied simple effects, such as fixed delays which can easily be replicated using the pre-delay functionality on the pedal. We hand-picked the best 64 programs, and organized them into 8 banks of 8 programs each.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe programs go from very short, small room echoes, at just 100 milliseconds long, and gradually extend in length and size up to 15 seconds, with variations at each length, offering different room sizes and reflection brightness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd we can't forget the \"Bloom\" programs - arguably the most famous feature of the original.

The pedal has 8 different modes, which tweak the cutoff frequencies for the pre- and post distortion filters, offering a wide variety of sounds. The signal chain is then finished off with a few tone-shaping controls - a treble-rolloff tone control, a mid-scoop filter, and a feature we call \"Curves\", which introduces an output EQ curve to the sound, which makes the pedal suitable for running either in front of an amp or directly into a power amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ghost Note Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56243811713406,"sku":"3 Bit Fuzz","price":192.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0767\/0880\/6948\/files\/3BitFuzz-8.png?v=1757721167"}],"url":"https:\/\/ghostnoteaudio.uk\/collections\/daedalus.oembed","provider":"Ghost Note Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
