Walrus Fundamental Series Distortion Pedal

Description

For the Fundamental Series, we challenged ourselves to design a set of pedals with the tonal integrity that’s required to live on a professional’s pedalboard, but with simplified controls friendly enough for even the newest effect pedal users. Each Fundamental pedal has 3 sliders for tweaking the sound and a three-way switch for changing pedal modes. The result is a line of 8 pedals that will keep you covered from your first band practice all the way to a sold-out arena. Designed and assembled at Walrus Audio headquarters in OKC, OK. 

Fundamental Distortion
The Fundamental Distortion is a 3-mode distortion. It covers a wide range of sounds from dark and doom through sharp cutting leads.


  • Gain: The Gain slider sets the amount of gain applied to your guitar signal passing through the fuzz circuit.


  • Tone: The Tone slider controls the frequency response of the signal after distortion. Below center boosts highs and above center cuts highs. 


  • Volume: The Volume slider sets the overall output volume of the pedal.


  • Slide Switch: The slide switch allows you to change between 3 distinct flavors of the pedal. Each position has different clipping modes or tone profiles.


  • Dark: Asymmetric silicon clipping with added high-frequency cut. Think dark and dynamic.       


  • Si: Classic silicon hard clipping diodes. Things get compressed and crunchy. 


  • LED: LED hard clipping diodes. A dynamic and crunchy sound.


  • Note: The LED clipping mode will be louder due to the nature of the LEDs, so use your volume slider to compensate!
