Hex Fuzz Amplifier
Individual string fuzz or overdrive distortion for hexaphonic or polyphonic processing
Overview:
The Hex Fuzz Amplifier module is quite versatile, creating a range of distortions from gentle overdrive to full-on fuzz.
​
The circuitry features op amp distortion and/or hard clipping with diodes. The diodes are user-customizable via plug-in headers on the back of the module. The module ships with a mix of Silicon and Germanium diodes (four per channel) as a starting point.
​
Gain controls allow you to adjust the gain from zero to full-scale in the amplified string outputs.
​
The six individual fuzz outputs are mixed together and presented as a seventh output. The output mixer amplifier has an adjustable gain of 0.01 - 1.2x (0 - 20dB)
​
Ideal for guitar multi-channel, single-string, or hexaphonic effects processing.
​
Hand-assembled in the USA.
