Cutting Room Floor V3
(Echo, Pitch, Modulate, Glitch)
Description:
The Cutting Room Floor was designed to emulate the sound and functionality of
vintage reel-to-reel tape overdrive and echo. This pedal reaches into the 21st
century with characteristics that traverse the world of modulation and delay.
With separate controls over the input signal and tape delay signal, you can
adjust the amount of emulated tape saturation and tape delay level. Other
features include a freeze button that traps a tone while still playing, and
expression/CV control for time. The Cutting Room Floor provides beautifully
marred saturated tape tone and ethereal repeats. Imagine an abandoned factory
with a fluttering tape machine left on infinite replay.
Operates on a standard Boss style 9vdc power supply. – 150ma current draw.
