Introduction:
Rocktron is known for incredible distortion
tones. The Metal Embrace adds to the legendary
distortion lineup from Rocktron with a unique and
amazing distortion pedal! Get ready to blow the
doors off with a heavy metal dream wrapped in a
silver chassis.
Part of the Rocktron Boutique Series of stomp
boxes this pedal design comes in a rugged metal
chassis with eye popping retro custom design laser
etched artwork. This is a TRUE BYPASS pedal:
when you turn it off…it is out of your signal path!
The Metal Embrace offers up controls for Bass,
Treble and Sweepable Mid EQ, plus Waveform
Symmetry (which adds harmonics).
Within the controls, the Metal Embrace knob
controls the amount of distortion drive. The
Symmetry knob controls the amount of negative
excursion of the resulting distorted waveform
which enhances harmonic overtones. The Level
knob controls the output volume of the Metal
Embrace pedal.
