The three compressor circuits are as follows: 1\. FET Compressor: This circuit uses a FET transistor for gain reduction, adding a distinctive color to the signal and providing super-fast response. It may introduce a bit of musical distortion. 2\. OTA Compressor: This circuit uses a feed-forward detector circuit, allowing it to "squeeze" things harder and providing punchy and direct sound. It is the most controllable circuit with a focus on catching fast transients and limiting. 3\. OPTO (Optical) Compressor: This circuit utilizes a hand-selected photocell combined with a feed-back detector circuit to offer smooth attack and release characteristics, resulting in very musical and organic compression, even on extreme settings. It can also be set very neutral. The pedal also includes a parallel compression technique for blending the compressed signal with the original uncompressed signal, providing clarity and precision found in studio recordings. Additional features include: \- An internal switch to select between 9 or 18V DC operation for increased headroom and enhanced compression characteristics. \- Superb low-noise floor performance and full frequency response, making it ideal for guitar, bass, and virtually every instrument in studio or stage settings. The pedal offers a comprehensive stack of controls, including Threshold, Ratio, Attack, Release, Blend, and Volume dials, allowing for precise adjustment of the compression parameters. The LED indicator provides visual feedback on the degree of compression happening. The Crazy Tube Circuits Golden Ratio Phi V2 is designed to be versatile, well- built, quiet, and fun to use, offering musicians a wide range of control over compression parameters and three different compression engines in one pedal. The retail price for the Crazy Tube Circuits Golden Ratio Phi V2 is $249.

Furthermore, it is compatible with an expression pedal for remotely controlled wah-wah effects.

Unobtanium

The Unobtanium by Crazy Tube Circuits is an overdrive pedal that combines the characteristics of two iconic amplifiers. It features a faithful reproduction of the mythical overdrive circuit with a wide gain range control, active treble control, and a volume knob for overall output. The pedal also includes a toggle switch for selecting between original buffer bypass and true bypass, as well as stock clipping/compression or enhanced gain and headroom/output. The left side of the pedal houses a D-style amp-in-a-box overdrive with controls for gain, volume, tone, and emphasis. It offers two distinct D-style overdrive circuits: SSS for clean and transparent overdrive with natural organic compression, and ODS for higher gain overdrive with enhanced mid frequencies and harmonic overtones. The pedal also features an external footswitch input to select amplifier voicing, internal trimmers to adjust EQ and volume boost, and a passive series effects loop to connect other pedals between the two sections or use them separately as independent effects. The Unobtanium runs internally at 18V DC for higher headroom and tube-like performance, and it is designed with top-mounted jacks and a click-less True Bypass design via high-quality relays. The pedal section on the right side includes a K-style overdrive circuit with germanium diodes, while the amp section on the left side includes a D-style amp-in-a-box overdrive. The pedal also features a passive serial effects loop for looping in other pedals between the pedal and amp section. The Unobtanium is manufactured in Greece and is designed for use with a 9V DC mains adapter. It does not support battery operation. The pedal's dimensions are 147 x 103 x 65 mm, and it weighs 510 g.

Super Conductor

The Super Conductor by Crazy Tube Circuits is a boost pedal featuring four distinct boost circuits in a compact format. Each all-analog circuit has different input/output impedance, internal voltage, and behaves uniquely on the volume/output knob, producing its own sonic signature. The pedal includes the following circuits: 1\. rm: A silicon interpretation of the 60s classic germanium treble booster, suitable for pushing an already overdriven amp or adding presence and bite to a dark-sounding setup. 2\. ep: JFET preamp, based on the preamp circuit of a tape echo unit from the early 70s, known for its magical coloration and added focus and detail to the sound. 3\. ma: Op-amp boost based on a clean and "transparent" volume booster of the late 70s/early 80s, ideal for running long signal chains with its low output impedance or driving the amp harder into natural saturation. 4\. mf: Based on a late 90s ultra-transparent, high input impedance MOSFET boost, retaining a massive clean boost with pristine highs sonic identity. The pedal also includes tone shaping modifications individual to each circuit, which can be switched at will via the white and black button modifiers. The white button modifier operates only on rm and ep circuits, while the black button modifier operates only on ma and mf circuits. The unit is designed for 9V DC input only and should not be used with a higher voltage power supply. The Super Conductor is designed to provide a variety of boost options, each with its own unique sonic characteristics, allowing users to find the one that suits their rig and playing style.

Killer V

The Killer V by Crazy Tube Circuits is a pedal inspired by unique amplifiers from California in the 1950s and 60s, featuring a distinct, true pitch- shifting vibrato circuit.

Ziggy V2

The Crazy Tube Circuits Ziggy V2 is a British-flavored dual overdrive/distortion pedal designed with discreet MOSFET gain stages to respond like a tube amp with ultra-touch sensitivity. It features two separate overdrive/distortion channels – low and high gain - each with its own controls for ultimate versatility. The low gain channel is voiced after late 60s Super Bass, while the high gain channel sounds and responds like a late 70s Master Volume British amp. The pedal includes volume, tone, and gain controls for each channel, allowing for precise adjustments. The gain knobs on both channels also act as voicing controls, adding more bass as you turn clockwise, offering a range from jangly and sparkling clean to thick crunch. The tone knobs behave as a presence control, adding bite to your tone. The Ziggy V2 is equipped with a silent relay true-bypass switching circuit and can be powered by a 9V DC power supply (adapter not included). An internal circuitry provides 18V DC from a standard 9V DC power supply to ensure maximum headroom and a tube-like response. The pedal is housed in a robust metal enclosure and measures 72 x 118 x 50 mm, weighing 280 g. It is made in Greece and does not support battery operation.
