The Synthmonger Pulsemonger

Turns Your Guitar Into A Bass Synthesizer 07-Aug-09

The Synthmonger Pulsemonger is unique guitar effect that takes an input signal, squares it up, divides it by 2 (the sub-octave), and sends each pitch through individual pulse width modulator circuits, generating synth-like tones.

Both pulse octaves pulsewidth/duty cycle are variable from about 5% to 50%.

There is an on-board variable shape triangular LFO that can modulate both pulses simultaneously. Chorus/vibrato/tremelo/synth fuzz and other crazy noises can be had with this pedal.

Pricing and Availability:

The Pulsemonger is available now for $300. It's a boutique effect, so quantities will be limited.

Couldn't the designer have found someone who can 'play guitar' to demonstrate his product?

OUCH!

Danny is a pretty decent guitarist and musician all around. I'm not too familiar with his background training but I've heard him pull out some crazy jazz, classical and metal-ish scales and chords. He's not terrible whatsoever.

The reason why it's not a total wankfest of a demo is that I only wanted him to play a riff with subtle changes over and over again so people could get an idea of how the pedal sounds.

I suppose I could work on another demo with a bit more complex guitar playing if that's what people really want.

-Peace homies! Mark
