The Plasma Pedal embodies a revolutionary approach to overdrive and distortion; it's an entirely new and previously unexplored method of achieving signal clipping. Instead of using LED circuits, transistors or vacuum tubes to produce overdrive, the Plasma Pedal transforms your instrument's live signal into a series of continuous high-voltage discharges within a xenon-filled tube - sounds pretty sci-fi, right?
You're essentially playing a bolt of electricity, and the electrical discharges produced by your instrument are instantly converted back into an analog audio signal - this produces a quick, responsive, and extremely powerful distortion with tons of unique character! To top it off, the xenon tube is exposed via a transparent panel on the front of the pedal, so you can literally see your supercharged guitar signal reacting in real-time!
