Description

A new Darkglass model that combines tightness and aggressive distortion!
When developing bass distortion, achieving a punchy, aggressive sound while maintaining sonic pressure is like fighting a contradiction. If you want tightness, you need to suppress the bass to avoid saturation, which often results in a lighter tone. However, if you boost the low range poorly, you will cause the sound to become saturated. Microtubes X is the solution to these problems.

First, the input signal is split into two signals by an optionally configurable low-pass filter and high-pass filter. The high-pass filtered signal (only the mid to high frequencies) is then distorted by CMOS circuitry, just like in his other Microtubes pedals. The signal that passes through the low-pass filter (low frequency only) remains clean and unaltered. By mixing a distorted high-end sound with rich overtones with a clean low-end sound, you can create an aggressive distortion sound while maintaining a thick low end. Even when the strings are in poor condition or the instrument's tone is light or boomy, Microtubes X gives him great control over the tone.


High-pass frequency
Sets the range of high frequencies to be distorted (cutoff frequency). Can be set as desired from 100Hz (fuzz-like saturation sound) to 1kHz (sharp sound).

Low-pass frequency
Sets the clean low frequency range (cutoff frequency) that is mixed into the distorted high frequency sound. Can be set arbitrarily from 50Hz (sub-bass only) to 500Hz.

Level
Control the overall volume.

Drive
Controls the amount of distortion of the signal passed through the high-pass filter.

Mix
Controls the balance between low-pass and high-pass signals.

Mids
Active mid control placed after Mix control (+/-12dB @ 500Hz) DIMENSIONS

DIMENSIONS
64 x 111 x 43mm

WARNING
*The current consumption of MICROTUBES X is 30mA. Please use a regulated DC9V center negative polarity adapter. Due to environmental considerations, it is not compatible with 9V battery (006P) power. Using an unregulated power supply or supplying a voltage higher than 9VDC may result in noise generation and damage to the unit.
