Bass Effects

Chorus and Vibrato

Vibe

The Vibe by Black Cat Pedals is a stereo Uni-Vibe pedal that utilizes the same circuit as the original Black Cat Vibe, with the addition of two new features. It includes a second output jack for true stereo operation and enhanced power supply circuitry to accommodate 12V DC power or 12V AC, similar to the original. The pedal uses a flashing incandescent lamp and four photocells to create its distinctive sound, essential for accurately replicating the authentic Uni-Vibe effect. The custom 3D printed Black Cat Dome shields this part of the circuit to create the proper environment for optimal response. Technical Specifications: \- Effect: Chorus, Vibrato \- Design: Analog \- Input/Output: Mono In, Stereo Out, Expression Pedal \- Knobs: Volume, Intensity, Speed \- Switches: Chorus/Vibrato \- Bypass Mode: True Bypass \- Power Supply: 12V AC, 12V DC, center negative \- Power Consumption: 185 mA \- Battery: Not compatible \- Format: Medium \- Measurements: 13.3 x 7.5 x 11.4 cm \- Made in: USA The pedal is compatible with any multi-pedal brick type power supply unit that can provide 12V DC with a minimum current of 400mA. It has been used by well- known players such as Trey Anastasio, Steve Lukather, Scott Henderson, and Michael Landau.

Fuzz

OD-1

OD-Fuzz

The Black Cat OD-Fuzz is a versatile, two-channel distortion/fuzz box that combines the Black Cat OD-1 with a traditional Silicon Fuzz Face in one pedal. Each channel of the OD-Fuzz has its own set of controls with separate LEDs for each side. The two channels can be used separately or together in combination, offering a wide range of tonal possibilities, from slightly overdriven to full-blown fuzz. The controls become highly interactive when both effects are engaged. Key Features: \- Durable powder-coat "Holographic Sparkle" finish \- High-quality OP275 dual op-amp for OD channel \- NOS Philips BC-108 Fuzz Face transistors \- Professional glass epoxy double-sided PCB \- 3PDT true-bypass switch and Switchcraft jacks \- Uses 2.1mm Boss style power jack, or internal 9V battery \- Hand-wired, Boutique quality, Made in USA \- Two channels can be used independently or together \- Controls are interactive when channels are combined Variations: \- Germanium Transistors: Offers a traditional Silicon Fuzz Face in combination with an old-school Germanium Fuzz Face in one pedal. \- Hybrid (Germanium and Silicon) version: Combines the earthy warmth of Germanium and the sizzle of Silicon together in one fuzz. The OD-Fuzz is designed to provide a wide range of tonal possibilities and is handcrafted with premium components in the USA.

Bass Octave Fuzz

Wee Buzz

The Black Cat Wee Buzz is a slimmed-down, more affordable version of the Bee Buzz, based on the original Roland Bee Baa. It employs the same circuitry as its big brother Buzz but comes in a smaller, more "pedalboard-friendly" size with just the basic features. The Wee Buzz is designed to provide 100% pure fuzz without additional controls to dial in the fuzz because it is hardwired to be totally maxed out all the time. It features a slightly higher gain than the Bee Buzz, a cool black glass epoxy PCB with yellow silkscreen, metal film resistors, audio-grade capacitors, 3PDT true-bypass switches, and Switchcraft jacks. The pedal uses a 2.1mm Boss style power jack or an internal 9V battery. It is hand-wired, of boutique quality, and made in the USA.

Bee Buzz

The Black Cat Bee Buzz is a dual-channel fuzz/boost pedal based on the original Roland Bee Baa design. It features a transparent color brushed aluminum enclosure, elegant top-grade knobs and hardware, and a cool black glass epoxy PCB with yellow silkscreen. The pedal utilizes metal film resistors and audio-grade capacitors, along with 3PDT true-bypass switches and Switchcraft jacks. It can be powered using a 2.1mm Boss-style power jack or an internal 9V battery. The Bee Buzz also includes a bi-color LED to indicate Fuzz/Boost modes and is hand-wired with boutique quality in the USA. The control set consists of four knobs, a small switch for switching between Buzz and the Bee setting, a bypass footswitch, and another that switches between the fuzz and boost sections. The three leftmost knobs are for the fuzz section, with Volume controlling the effect level, Tone adjusting the sting quotient, and Sustain enabling the user to pile on the fuzz. The Bee setting on the fuzz circuit delivers a gritty, garage punk thug sound, while the Buzz setting provides a burlier, fatter fuzz with a Big Muff/Fuzz Face hybrid tone for aggressive chording and leads. Overall, the Black Cat Bee Buzz offers a versatile combination of stinging '60s fuzz and crunchy heft, making it suitable for players who appreciate the scrungy sounds of vintage fuzz pedals.

OD-Boost

The Black Cat OD-Boost is a dual channel overdrive/boost pedal that combines the Black Cat OD-1 with a clean boost circuit. The two channels can be used individually or together simultaneously, with a switch to change the order in which the channels are stacked, allowing the option of selecting OD into Boost, or Boost into OD. The pedal features two footswitches for independent control of the OD and Boost channels, with Drive and Volume controls for the OD channel, and a single Boost knob to control the level of the Boost channel. The toggle switch allows the option of either running the Boost signal into the OD, or taking the OD signal first and then boosting it. The OD and Boost channels complement each other well, offering a wide range of gritty dirt tones or additional muscle to existing tones. The pedal is hand-wired, boutique quality, and made in the USA. It also features a durable powder-coat finish with a two-color graphic, professional black glass epoxy PCB with yellow screen, and two 3PDT true-bypass switches (one for each channel). The pedal uses a 2.1mm Boss style power jack or an internal 9V battery.
