RINGERBRINGER
Technical: 100% Analog Ring Modulation Pedal With LFO, MOD, FREQ & RATE Controls
Product Description: Accurate Recreation Of The Ultimate Ring Modulator For Experimental Tones
From light Lo-Fi modulation all the way to the piercing sound of infinity ring-modulation, the Warm Audio RingerBringer accurately recreates the ultimate all-analog ring modulation effect used for experimental tones. With LFO, MOD, FREQ & RATE controls, generate layered frequencies and harmonics, explore a wide range of sonic possibilities for guitar & beyond, and design your own sounds from the ground up. Sporting premium components including hand-selected op-amps and transistors, the RingerBringer delivers true-to-spec performance of the boutique original. The ideal platform for the sonic tinkerer, RingerBringer brings together a distinct set of controls, extensive in/out options, and rich sonic textures to inspire boundless sonic experimentation.
RINGERBRINGER FEATURES
Unconventional Experimental Tones: From light Lo-Fi modulation all the way to the piercing sound of infinity ring-modulation, the Warm Audio RingerBringer accurately recreates an effects processor from the 90s, used by music’s most trailblazing artists to create unconventional and otherworldly tones.
Multi-Instrumental For Guitar & Beyond: Just like the original, RingerBringer connects to any instrument or line-level signal for tonal experimentation and sonic manipulation. On everything from guitar to synth to bass, design your own sounds from the ground up by exploring & manipulating an expansive range of frequencies and harmonics.
Numerous Controls & Connections: Through its numerous inputs/outputs and distinctive controls, RingerBringer delivers all of the sonic sculpting power of the original otherworldly effects processor. Key controls for LFO amount, LFO rate, LFO Waveform Switch, Modulator frequency, and Modulator Mix provide access to endless tone-shaping possibilities.
All-Analog Circuitry For Rich Tone Shaping: Unlike digital emulations, RingerBringer uses a 100% analog signal path featuring TL072ADR Op-Amps & MMBT3904 transistors to deliver the full analog experience of true tone experimentation.
Hand-Tested In Austin, TX: Like all Warm Audio gear, every single RingerBringer is meticulously hand-tested and inspected by trained technicians with a passion for making music in Austin, TX USA.
WARMBENDER
Technical: Selectable Three-Circuit Tone Bender-Style Fuzz Pedal
Descriptor: Accurately Recreating Two Of The Most Iconic Tone Bender Fuzz Pedals + A Bonus Modern Circuit
The Warm Audio Warm Bender features dedicated selectable circuits for delivering two of the most iconic Tone Bender fuzz tones plus a bonus modern tone in one stomp box. Warm Bender’s NOS 76 setting brings a cutting, present tone to the front of any band, while the NOS 75 delivers that Mark II Professional-style Bender fuzz tone lauded by all the Riff-Lords of the 60s & 70s. Warm Bender is made with 100% through-hole construction using NOS Germanium transistors. Warm Bender houses two distinct Germanium fuzz circuits plus a third modern silicon circuit for a more smooth, distortion-like tone. With the added SAG control starving the voltage and the smaller pedal footprint, Warm Bender is the ultimate Bender fuzz experience.
WARMBENDER FEATURES
Three Selectable Circuits: For rich, responsive, and rude fuzz, harness the authentic tone of not one but TWO of the most iconic British Tone Bender fuzz pedals to take the UK by storm. Like the original two-transistor and three-transistor vintage pedals, Warm Bender delivers all of the raw unhinged tones that put this style of fuzz on the map. Additionally, Warm Bender features a bonus third circuit using silicon transistors in the 3-transistor topology for a more modern take on this legendary flavor of fuzz.
Classic Two-Knob Tone Bender-Style Controls + More: Warm Bender has the classic ‘Level’ and ‘Attack’ controls of the NOS 75 & NOS 76 Tone Bender-style pedals. Level adjusts the output volume of the pedal. It regulates the overall loudness of the effect. The Attack control determines the level of distortion/sustain of the fuzz. Added controls include a rotary Version switch to choose the distinct, 100% analog bender-style circuit and a SAG switch rear-mounted to starve the pedal of voltage.
NOS Germanium Transistors: The first two positions on Warm Bender use NOS germanium transistors to authentically reproduce the intricate tones and unique separate circuits of vintage Tone Bender fuzz pedals. Position #1 is a two-transistor fuzz with an NOS OC76 transistor paired with an NOS SFT337. Position #2 is a three-transistor fuzz with (3X) NOS OC75 transistors. Each transistor in Warm Bender is hand-tested with tight tolerances for consistent performance.
NOS 76 Setting – Cut Through The Mix: This two-transistor, OC76-based flavor of fuzz boasts bright, edgy, cutting tones that can’t be ignored. Like the original silver and black Tone Bender style of fuzz, the NOS 76 setting on Warm Bender delivers aggressive fuzz with raw grit and sharp attack.
NOS 75 Setting – Get The Warm & Fuzzies: Compared to the NOS 76 setting, the NOS 75 setting on Warm Bender boasts thunderous bass with smooth, wooly, and fat fuzz tones. Like the original 3-transistor, Professional MKII / OC75-based British fuzz pedal, the NOS 75 setting on Warm Bender reveals a saturated, round, “darker” sound reminiscent of the most riff-worthy British-made fuzz pedals.
Silicon Setting – Modern, Controlled Chaos: The silicon setting on Warm Bender takes the 3-transistor topology similar to the NOS 75 setting but replaces the Germanium transistors with modern, silicon components. This setting acts as a bridge between traditional Tone Bender fuzz and more modern distortion-like tone delivering smoother sustain, natural compression, and fuzz that plays nice in the mix.
Experience Starved-Circuit Tones With SAG: The SAG switch on Warm Bender recreates the special and unique sound of the original Tone Bender-style fuzz pedals when the batteries would die or the power was starved. These tones are ultra touch-sensitive, especially when rolling the volume off. The resulting playing experience is similar to tweed/mid-gain amps at the edge of breakup.
Hand-Tested In Austin, TX: Like all Warm Audio gear, the Warm Bender is meticulously hand-tested and inspected by trained technicians with a passion for making music in Austin, TX USA.
