The newest release from Wintter Labs, El Malito Version 2 is a high gain distortion pedal. Its distortion has volume and gain to spare to suit all tastes. It has three-band equalization (bass, mids and highs) with a wide range of responses, creating infinite possibilities of timbre, which can range from classic rock, through heavy metal and its aspects of the 80's and 90's, reaching more modern timbres of the style.
In the distortion signal chain, El Malito also has a high cut key, to achieve more closed tones typical of 80's thrash metal.
The novelty is the possibility of 09 clipping combinations, on the Clipping 1 and Clipping 2 switches, alternating between silicon diodes, Russian germanium diodes (D18 in Clipping 1 and D9B in Clipping 2), or no clipping with diodes (only in OPAMP).
El Malito is not a discreet pedal, but it retains the characteristics of its instrument. It will raise the gain of your sound to very high levels, with ample possibilities of distortions and equalization, making it one of the most versatile distortions today. Adding to the clipping options, you'll have on the board a pedal that will flirt with the timbre of several renowned preamps in the heavy sound. El Malito is one of those pedals that will not leave your board, as it will meet all the nuances you are looking for in your performance.
