The Source Audio Artifakt Lofi Elements is the first pedal of its kind, a comprehensive collection of all the hazy, scratchy, wobbly, and broken tones that epitomize the term 'lofi'." Like a megadelay or megareverb, Artifakt is a "onestop shop" for all the most soughtafter lofi effects including old vinyl replications, tape modulation and saturation, bit crushing, sample rate reduction, dark reverb and echo, filtering, compression, glitch, and more. Source Audio has dedicated much of the past three years to meticulously honing each of these sounds as well as engineering an entirely unique hardware design with an easytouse interface that places the pedal's full capabilities at your fingertips.
Navigating through the seven positions of Artifakt's effect selector knob unleashes a symphony of sonic transformations, each akin to engaging a new pedal with its own unique brand of lofi. The first effect on the dial is Radio, tune into its crackling nostalgic tones where static frequency filtering and noise generation evoke the charm of a vintage radio struggling to dial in a signal. The Tape engine conjures the sound of vintage tape machines by blending subtle compression, overdrive, tape flutter, and pitch modulation to invoke effects like slapback, chorus, doubling, and tape saturation. uVerb is a primitive reverb effect with bouncing echoes similar to the reverb on 8bit gaming systems. The Crush effect voyages the realm of bitdepth quantizing and sample rate reduction, all finely sculpted with the resonance of a Moogstyle ladder filter. Ladder, inspired by the revered R2R ladder filter, offers both envelope and LFO modulation control for classic and dramatic filter sweep effects. Vinyl faithfully emulates the crackle and pop of vintage records, from pristine 180gram vinyl to wellloved gramophone platters. Glitch adds an unpredictable edge, capturing fragments of your performance and hurling them back at random speeds and pitches.
