Frostwave Sonic Alienator Decimator Bit Crusher Sample Rate Reducer distortion pedal MS-20 analog filter

The knob in the middle is not the original and some white paint on the back has been peeled off, other than that this very rare and sought after pedal is in excellent condition and comes with an Australian PSU and a converter EU-plug. ☺️👍

Rare effects pedal from the now-defunct Australian brand Frostwave. Quite unique in its kind, offering great harmonic possibilities of distortion and artefacts.

It is a bit crusher, with a sample rate knob and several algorithms selected by the central knob (12 bars flashing + 12 bars non-flashing). The clock rate is generated by analog circuitry.

There is a great sounding analog drive input, and a beautiful sounding MS20-like analogue low-pass filter with resonance. Orientation switches allow 4 configurations:

- Input -> decimator -> output

- Input -> filter -> decimator -> output

- Input -> decimator -> filter -> output

- Input -> filter -> output

No bypass switch, but the output potentiometer can become a DRY/WET mix knob via an internal jumper. 

Comes with 9V Australian power supply and transformer to standard EU plug.

However the unit can work with any standard power supply that is 9V DC CENTER POSITIVE. Please make careful note of this as this is the opposite of the 9V center negative supplies commonly used in guitar effects pedals and getting the orientation wrong can result in damage to the unit.
