inspired by zager & evans’ 1969 smash hit, “in the year 2525″which suggests that future humans will have little use for their 5 senses, the year 4545 throws caution to the wind and indulges in some celebratory aural abuse.

a transistor amplifier stage boosts and fuzzes up your signal, which then gets sent through a pair of unstable oscillators bent on massaging your tone into oblivion.

simple, yet highly interactive controls create a mess of different sounds, including: fuzz, filter, octaves, ring modulation, 8-bit effects, random pitch shifting/jumping, triggered envelope-type effects, harmonic resonances , hisses, crackles, squeals and general cacophony…

some important notes:
_we tune each year4545 by ear so that they are as consistent as possible, but due to the experimental nature of the circuit, each pedal will be unique.
__the stock year4545 cuts some bass from the signal; for use with bass/baritone guitars and keyboards, the clean blend mod is recommended.
___the year4545 has a great deal of high end treble content; for use with a particularly bright amp, the hi-cut mod is recommended.
