Clacktronics Wasp Drive - Synthesizer Filter in a Box

via this auction
"Protect your ears!! The Wasp Drive is a unique distortion / filter / auto-wah device and the name is no coincidence; It uses the same VCF model as from the legendary EDP wasp but adding tweaks and modifications to really bring out the noise!! Built into a robust folded aluminum case, with large chunky layout , an intuitive layout, LED rate indicator and rubber feet, it is an excellent choice for live performance as well as experimentation in the studio.

Controls:

Cutoff - Adjusts the cutoff point of the filter
'Q' - This is resonance, at max it self oscillates
Response - Has Low Pass, Band Pass or High Pass option
LFO speed - speed of the cutoff modulating LFO
LFO Depth - depth at which the LFO modulates the cutoff
Gain - capable of driving the input up-to 10x

A diverse filter capable of adding grit and punch to drums, ambient sweeps, mellow wah and plain crazy noise.

Customer Quotes

"When it's fed a signal from my korg M500 or Yamaha cs01 it makes the filter sweeps sound incredibly waspy - especially with the resonance up high. I'm using it live with my band in conjunction with a Copilotfx Molecule (a tremolo pedal where the rate of modulation depends on the frequencies present at the input). The ability to drive the input is fantastic and I've found that this alone can give quite a unique sounding distortion. It sounds great with my Casio SK-8 as well, playing the 'organ' preset driven very hard into the pedal, and using the bandpass with high resonance and lfo modulation has produced some incredible rhythmic textures." - Chris le Monde of CLOUT!

To keep the price down and because it uses a standard tip negative 9v input that guitar pedals use (such as Boss, Ibanez, EHX etc ) it does not come with its own power supply. But they are available at a discounted extra cost of £6 for a UK power adapter and £10 for USA, Australia and EU power adapter.
