This all-new effects unit has been developed by Fumio Mieda, developer of many famous legendary devices such as the Univibe. This new kind of effects unit differs from the usual “fuzz” or “distortion” pedal in many ways.
The HD-S lets you freely combine the three different distortion circuits to produce a wide range of previously undiscovered sounds, from the traditional fuzz to out-of-this-world distorted sounds and more. This wide range of traditional and all-new sounds means the HD-S can be used not only with guitars but also with bass guitars, synthesizers and anytime new and unique sounds are required.
No other distortion pedal is similar, HD-S offers a truly unique sound experience you have to try for yourself because every user will come away with different sounds!
Combine the three different distortion circuits to control filter-like changes, going beyond aggressive distortion effects into a whole new sonic world. The HD-S includes three trimmer knobs inside the top cover of the housing, in addition to the four control knobs on the panel. By using these trimmer knobs to adjust the balance between the three different distortion circuits, you can create a wide range of sounds from orthodox fuzz to a wide variety of distortion all the way to some really wild sounds. Usable with guitar, bass guitar, synths and other instruments, the HD-S is a distortion effects unit that gives you sounds you’ve never heard or used before.
One of the many appealing features of the Nu:tekt Series is that these products give you the chance to build the product yourself, and it is easy to do so. The HD-S kit doesn’t require soldering, and all of the necessary tools for assembly are included in the package, for an easily-assembled kit that you can put together quickly and easily. A portrait sticker featuring a caricature motif of Fumio Mieda is also included.
