Fowl Sounds collaborates with Extreme Metal Band Inter Arma for the incredibly potent Concrete Cliffs Parametric Opamp Distortion with Boost

So Fowl Sounds and Inter Arma have come up with an incredibly potent Distortion + Boost pedal - which features fully parametric Mids, semi-parametric Bass, and a smart Slew Limiter / Gain Structure control - which makes things progressively darker and woolier. The Slew Limiter essentially sets the degree and character of how the circuit distorts - sort of equivalent to different gears and gain stages - where Green is the Lightest, and Red is the Heaviest/ Darkest.

Inter Arma is an Extreme Metal Band - which operates at extreme levels of gain - and that’s exactly what this pedal is capable of - easily reaching HM-2 levels of Chainsaw Death Metal Distortion and more, and everything up to that level!

Controls - Bass ±14dB, Bass Hz, Mid Hz (250Hz-1100Hz), Mid ±14dB, Mid Q, Slew Limiter / Gain Structure (Progressively Darker & Woolier), Treble, Tone (Hi-Cut), Volume, Gain, Boost, Distortion Footswitch, Boost Footswitch.

As mentioned in the manual - turning the Bass, Mid and Treble dials to noon - essentially takes those out of the circuit - and you’re left with just the simple Tone control. So you can go simple, or fully granular - as suits your sensibilities.

The graphics can get a little in the way of the pedal legends - where overall legibility isn’t great. While overall this is a fantastic wide-ranging Distortion / High Gain Distortion pedal - which you should be able to dial in very precisely indeed.

The Concrete Cliffs is currently available for preorders from the Fowl Sounds Webstore - where it goes for $249, and takes circa 2 weeks to ship.

This is a really cool and fairly unique distortion. I obviously love my High Gain pedals - and this very much looks like another one for that roster!
