Momo explains how the Krytical Mass's fuzz circuit is uniquily and musically touch sensitive to the dynamics of your playing.
Krytical Mass® spits out fat, formidable fuzz with a pronounced octave up as well as a more subtle octave down and a scorching, filter-like sweep on sustained notes. Muted notes will “kill” the fuzz with almost gate-like precision, yielding a super-tight, synth-like pulse that is simply addictive to play.
Where other replicas tend to be harsh and sterile sounding, Krytical Mass® is able to capture the aggressive yet warm & organic edge of the original Brassmaster using a unique complement of EQ and voltage manipulation controls.
One of the great mysteries of the Brassmaster is its unmarked transformer and how it was wound. Analysis suggests that this component may have actually been wired with negative polarity, so Krytical Mass® includes a switch to toggle between positive & negative phase wirings for additional tonal options.
Another unique feature of Krytical Mass® is the ability to adjust the bias voltage of the transistors to taste, accentuating either 2nd order harmonics for more lows or higher-order harmonics for more complex waveform content.
Also on board are selectable High Pass, Low Pass, and Band Pass filters with adjustable midrange to fine-tune Krytical Mass® to your particular tonal tastes.
