Introducing the Emanating Fist Electronics ~ DP-01. High quality fuzz tones presented in a compact and contemporary format. Constructed in a rugged 120mm x 100mm x 30mm die-cast aluminium enclosure, the DP-01 is a miniaturized offering of our four stage high gain silicon fuzz, the Dope Priest. The DP-01 features quality hardware and components through-out, offering solid performance in both sonic delivery and road worthiness.

Potentiometers feature a conductive polymer track rather than the traditional carbon track for increased durability and longevity. Our foot switches are heavy duty 3PDT types with hard-wire true bypass operation. Audio jacks feature Ni-Ag alloy self-cleaning contacts for optimal performance and reliability. The LED's fitted are low drain, high brightness types with a wide and easy to see viewing angle. The control surface is functional with bold position markers and flush surface mounting control knobs. Circuit board population features capacitors with a polypropylene film construction, 1W commercial grade carbon film resistors and gain selected BC549C epitaxial planar silicon transistors. Offering vintage styled tones but with higher modern day specification, thus delivering a superb signal-to-noise ratio.

DP-8X – Do you require greater tonal aggression and accurate dynamic response? If so say hi to the DP-8X Frequency Sustainer. The circuitry in our latest DP-01 Particle Series offering is based upon the early dabbling that Maxon conducted with the 1973 Big Muff Pi. That lumbering weighty giant became a lean fast muscular master of fists as the circuit was fine tuned and given a greater degree of precision. Sustain levels are immense with a fast growling driven attack that truly does take fuzz tone into the realms of searing distortion. The lows are tight and punchy with a heaving mid-range clout that projects like a horde of howling banshees. Gone is the pudgy belly fat of mushy fuzz, now stripped away revealing the tight sinewy curve of brawny amplification. Employing a unique tone stack that offers superior tunability with resistance tapers that give improvement in performance and accuracy. The DP-8X takes that concept a step further offering the musicnaut the indulgence in those unique tones whilst improving circuit stability and the longevity of componentry.

The EFE Particle Series pedals are primarily designed for use on a pedal board, so power is supplied via an external 9 volt DC supply only (not included) There is no facility for a battery inside the DP-01 or any of the Particle Series EFE pedals.
