Opere pedal la
The Black Hammer pedal features four distinct effects, each with intuitive controls and LED indicators for active status.
This image illustrates the four core effects integrated into the Black Hammer pedal: Boost, Hi-Gain Distortion, Chorus, and Delay, each with dedicated controls.
Effect Modules:
- BOOST: This module provides a pre-gain boost to increase the volume and drive of your signal, ideal for pushing your amplifier or the Hi-Gain section for solos and heavy riffs.
- HI-GAIN: An analog high-gain distortion with a versatile 3-band EQ (Bass, Mid, Treble) and a smart Noise Gate (NR) to eliminate unwanted hum and feedback. The Volume knob controls the overall output level of the distortion.
- REFREN: A BBD-style analog-sounding chorus effect. Controls include Level (mix of wet/dry signal), Depth (intensity of the chorus effect), and Rate (speed of the chorus modulation).
- DETA: A 500ms analog-voicing delay. Controls include Mix (wet/dry signal blend), Repeat (number of repeats), and Time (delay time).
Endikatè ki ap dirije:
Each effect module features LED-illuminated control knobs that clearly indicate their working status. When an effect is active, its corresponding LEDs will light up, providing immediate visual feedback.
