Why You’ll Love It
- Add character to your tone — we're high on the lo-fi sounds of “old-school” games, toys and terminals and the Mainframe Bit Crusher takes us back in time…
- Dial in sounds quickly — a little background… the sample rate is the number of times per second that a sample or snapshot of an analog signal…
- Fits on your pedalboard — for example, CDs (remember them?) had a sample rate of 44.1kHz which means that the original analog signal is sampled 44,100 times…
- Built for the stage — the frequency range that can be reproduced while maintaining good fidelity.
Key Features
Design & Materials
We're high on the lo-fi sounds of “old-school” games, toys and terminals and the Mainframe Bit Crusher takes us back in time to when Pac Man and Donkey Kong ruled… Back to our CD example… CDs used a 16-bit bit depth meaning that each of its samples was represented by 16-bits of information.
