synth tone. While the Red Ripper can emulate the tones of an envelope filter, the signal is not actually being filtered, so your tone won't thin out and drop off when the effect is engaged.Unlike vintage devices, all this gory fun comes with modern benefits. An active three-band EQ delivers studio-grade tone-shaping in a compact pedal, while the Level and Drive controls let you find the sweet spot between dirt and volume. There's a Low Pass Filter switch to compensate for full-range bass systems equipped with tweeters. Buffered bypass and a silent-switching, custom footswitch actuator completes the package.The level and drive controls work like a traditional, well-equipped amp. Low, mid, and high are active controls, providing a wider array of tonal possibilities. The character knob is a continuously-variable control that moves seamlessly between different model voicings, covering vintage, high-gain, and face-melting lead tones. The character and mid controls, and the speaker emulations, are all engineered to personify the specific amplifier traits and speakers associated with each amplifier type. Tech 21 effects are designed using the best spec components, full-metal construction and a whole lot of coffee. The result is a line of effects that are inspiring and eminently usable. Unlike many 'one-trick' pedals, each Tech 21 effect is feature-rich and loaded with great tones for you to explore. They also feature professional details, like high impedance inputs and low impedance outputs for signal integrity, with smooth, custom actuators for silent switching, and touring-tough construction.
