WMD Geiger Counter
Digital Destruction (2009)

Special pedal effect: a mix of various preamp gains and audio bitcrusher from simple lo-fidelity level to total sonic destruction.

A 100% experimental effect!

 

PEDAL EFFECT Main panel features a segment diplay, 6 knobs, 2 lever switches and 1 bypass button switch.

Back panel terminal connectors:
- signal input
- signal output
- control voltage CV input.

Power supply external PSU DC 9V (- polarity or 9v battery.

 

SOUND the WMD distorts and destructs sounds in a frequency range from 260 Hz to 58 kHz.
WMD destruction works in 2 main modes:
- internal bitcrusher reduces sampling resolution from 8 to 1 bits
- mask sound is processed through 256 digital internal waves with specific harmonics contents- the relative number showed in hexadecimal values on the segment display (from 00 to FF).

 

 

CONTROLS knobs GAIN and TONES are for tonal modification with preamp gain for sustained sounds guitar (like distortion-oriented) that can be driven directly to wavetable math process or bypassed.

 

CV Control Voltage can be changed by a modular system tension.
Just plug expression pedal, LFO, CV sequencer or whatever producing something within a 0-5V range.

 

MODIFICATION the "bass mod" adds better low end frequency response than the original.
It is made by the original company for now- I don't know about any schematics for now.

EURORACK MODULE: exists also in modular format with even more CV controls.   Civilian Issue version: budget slimmed down version
