POLARIS is a smooth medium-gain overdrive, with incredibly flexible tone-shaping capabilities. The standout feature is an optional 2-pole resonant filter, which is also controllable via expression pedal for filter sweeps and out-of-this-world overdrive tones.
Designed to help you explore the outer-limits of harmonic overdrive, Polaris’s smooth gain sound goes from just a touch of harmonics to full-tilt, live-wire overdrive on the brink of distortion.
The shining beacon of Polaris is contained within its unique tone shaping center at the heart of its control panel. Four out of the six controls are purely for tonal adjustments. The Filter control is the star of the show, an extremely effective control with three filter options, selectable via the Depth toggle switch above it. First position is a standard, single-pole low pass filter to adjust the high-end content. In the middle, you’ll find a deeper 2-pole filter for serious sculpting. Last and certainly far from least, is the 2-pole resonant filter for the most extreme shaping. All three filter options are fully sweep-able via the EXP jack, using a standard TRS expression pedal or expression device, opening the door to inspiring movement within your overdrive tones.
The Bass toggle switch offers three options for keeping your low frequencies under control. Whether you need a gentle bass cut or boost, or you simply want them untouched, Polaris has you covered.
The Initial control blends in your raw, pre-filtered overdrive tone. Using this control in conjunction with the Filter control allows for serious tone shaping, by re-introducing the raw signal to balance more extreme Filter settings.
Polaris is completely hand-soldered and handmade in Portland Oregon to the highest degree of quality possible. These are truly artisan-crafted tone devices, sparing no detail within or without. Polaris utilizes true-bypass switching via the highest quality mechanical footswitch available, while your tone is transferred via quality open-frame Switchcraft jacks. Open one up and you’ll see an unparalleled display of craftsmanship; with immaculate hand-soldered PCB’s and detailed military-spec wiring. On top of the cast aluminum enclosure sits a durable, engraved vinyl faceplate and large jewel indicator light. This pedal is truly built to last a lifetime.
