The signature pedal of Thomas Erak (The Fall of Troy) is an analog fuzz/octave with a lot of tweakability for those looking for unconventional tones. The main controls are as easy to adjust as any mixer, with Volume & Gain for the Upper Octave, Root Octave and many Sub Octave voices. Each section can be used on their own or blended together to produce a wide variety of classic octave up, thick vocal-like fuzz, clean bass lines or scrambled synth tones! Like most monophonic octave pedals, the T.O.M. is very sensitive to the guitar’s output and playing dynamics. Tracking is always improved when using the neck pickup above the 12th fret but part of the charm is the unexpected glitches and jittery sub octaves it can produce, which is why the sub signal has 4 positions to choose: Clean, Synth, Square Wave Sub and Unison Square Wave. Clean is ideal for a fat bass sound that you want to feel more than hear while synth is armed with extra overtones to grind alongside the fuzz signals. The Square Wave selections offer a gated fuzz at the heart with or without the sub octave signal. Here, the gain control is crucial in dialing in the stability and sustain of the octave as well as the threshold of the Fuzz Gate. Once dialed in, the master volume helps meld everything into one solid signal to send to you amplifier. Each CMC T.O.M. is handmade one at a time in NY with great attention to detail.
