BRAND: Chase Bliss 

MODEL: Generation Loss MkII

FUNCTION: Guitar Effects Pedal

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: This listing is for a Chase Bliss Generation Loss MkII Guitar Effects Pedal. The Chase Bliss Generation Loss MKII is a stereo tape emulation pedal designed to recreate the lo-fi textures of degrading analog media, such as worn VHS tapes and malfunctioning cassette decks.

SPECS:

• Serial # 07328
• Wow: Controls slow, random pitch modulation to emulate vintage tape warble.
• Flutter: Adds rapid, twitchy pitch and amplitude modulation for a shivering effect.
• Model: A 12-way rotary control that selects between different tape machine EQ profiles, including VCRs, dictaphones, and toy cassette players.
• Saturate: Introduces magnetic saturation and nonlinear distortion that occurs when "hot" signals are recorded to tape.
• Failure: Gradually adds malfunctions like snags, drops, and tape wrinkles.
• Volume: Manages the overall output level and can act as a "Ramp" control for automated parameter changes when used with DIP switches.
• Stereo Operation: The MKII is the first in Chase Bliss's classic format to feature true stereo I/O, including a "Spread" mode that distributes failure artifacts across the stereo field.
• Classic Mode: A dedicated DIP switch allows users to revert to the sound and functionality of the original Cooper FX Generation Loss.
• Integration Options: Includes MIDI (for up to 122 presets), Expression/CV control, and a micro-USB port for firmware updates.
• Customization: Features 16 external DIP switches on the top of the pedal to access deeper behaviors like ramping, bypass modes (True or DSP), and specific failure types. 
• Power Requirements: Standard 9V DC, center-negative power supply with a current draw of approximately 250mA.
• Audio Path: Features analog dry-through (mode-dependent) to preserve the original signal's integrity while adding lo-fi textures.
