Captain Bubbletron

Filtered “Bubble” Fuzz with Voice Selection Control

There once was a pond and in it a duck,
Who ate funny leaves growing in toxic muck,
His once sweet quacks,
Now have bubbling attacks,
And all who hear it exclaim “what the… WOW THAT’S AWESOME!”

This is the curious tale of Captain Bubbletron - an unassuming duckling with a chemically-induced superpower! He has the unique ability to transform your instrument signal into a bubbly, throaty, and eccentric fuzz that sounds like no other circuit. The controls are simple: the single knob that features our feathered hero controls volume, and the toggle switch selects between two preset voices. The higher voice is splatty and somewhat like a raspberry - perfect for that unique solo. It sits well in a mix and brings plenty of character to the song. The lower voice is throaty and growls with a fun synth-like filter - great for riffs, bridges, and that extra little secret tonal weapon on your board.

Captain Bubbletron has some circuit surprises under the hood and plays nicely with all other pedals and in all positions with your signal chain. Most importantly, there is ZERO latency when using this effect. Although it sounds like a synth, Captain Bubbletron is really a filtered fuzz. This allows for precise tracking and crisp attack… no frustrating synth delay here! What’s more, this effect has a ton of headroom on tap and responds nicely to pick attack and input volume.
