Reviews | Dreadbox Effects Pedals THE ALTERNATIVES Fairfield Circuitry Long Life £299 An oddity, much like the Kinematic, which combines a parametric EQ with a tilt and CV inputs to create tone-shaping and full on wah-filter stylings, and some zener diode soft clipping on the side fairfieldcircuitry.com field of yawing and chiming. The Feedback control can as easily render the BBD into sharp metallic whines as it can deliver that extra depth to ring out the edges of the delays.

Dreadbox Effects Pedals | Reviews CV I/O: (K/K/L only) Two inputs and one output (LFO or EG) at ±5V via 3.5mm mini-jacks for modular synth and other stompbox crossmodulation purposes The OTA-based, eight-stage phasing delivers the throaty, vocal gurgling that can give the most pedestrian guitar chops a funky swagger, and this alone makes Lethargy an impressive phase shifter.
