A multi-effects pedal that unleashes chaotic sonic mayhem with four modulation effects.

The Bitters modulation pedal from Catalinbread provides a palette of lush, experimental soundscapes in an intuitive interface. Designed for adventurous guitarists and synth players, the Bitters lets you dial in everything from subtle chorus to mind-bending sonic mutations with individual knobs for distortion, phaser and a "Bitters" effects knob which can access four different programs - Decimator, Bitcrusher, Frequency Modulation and Ring Modulation.

Shape Your Tone With Versatile Modulation Effects

The Bitters opens up a world of tone-crafting options with three effects in series that can be reordered to taste. The distortion circuit imparts a harmonically rich overdrive which can be dialed from clean boost to saturated distortion. The deep phase shifter produces syrupy undulations at lower settings and an intense 20Hz throb at its highest. The "Bitters" knob accesses four chaotic modulation effects which introduce dramatic tonal changes, from subtle pitch modulation to alien ring modulation tones. With the dedicated mix control, you can blend in as little or as much of the effected signal as you like.

Explore New Creative Possibilities

Whether paired with guitar, bass, synth or drum machine, the Bitters inspires new ideas and fuels sonic exploration. Its powerful and unusual effects encourage unconventional playing approaches and open portals to strange new worlds of sound. The mix control provides an easy way to introduce dramatic effected passages into your playing or incorporate the Bitters' peculiar tones as an accent or special effect. For the adventurous musician seeking unique and inspiring sounds, the Bitters delivers.

Take Your Playing into Outer Space

Turn the Bitters knob to unleash alien sounds that will transform your playing. The decimator effect lowers your sample rate to introduce glitchy artifacts, while the bitcrusher crunches your tone down to one bit for lo-fi destruction. Frequency modulation or pitch vibrato, can provide subtle warbling chorus or tear your signal to shreds. The ring modulator generates robotic tones by multiplying your input with an internal frequency. Paired with distortion and phaser, these intergalactic Bitters effects open up a wormhole to experimental sonic dimensions.

Slow and Syrupy or Lightning Fast Phaser

The Bitters' deep sine-wave phaser ranges from languid and swirling to an ear-bending 20Hz for radical tone shaping. Crank the phaser knob to increase the rate or lower it towards 0Hz to remove the phaser from your signal path. Like the Bitrman that inspired it, the Bitters' phaser exceeds the limits of most pedals for enveloping phase-shifted ambiance or rapid-fire swooshing.

Intuitive Design For Sonic Manipulation

Despite the Bitters' potential for disorienting and chaotic sounds, its design remains highly intuitive. The logical layout of knobs makes it easy to understand how the distortion, phaser and "Bitters" effects interact and influence your core tone. LEDs indicate the selected "Bitters" program so you'll always know which effect is active. Powered by a standard 9 to 18V center-negative power supply, the Bitters is built to handle the demands of the stage and studio. If you're looking for a pedal that inspires new ideas and fuels creativity, check out the Bitters.
