The Holy Fire by Creation Audio Labs is a classic overdrive distortion effect pedal designed for guitar or bass. It features transparent gain, dynamic smooth overdrive, and thick rich distortion. The pedal utilizes analog wave shaping tube emulation technology, resulting in an ultra-wide bandwidth response similar to a tube without altering the original tone and with an extremely low noise floor. The pedal also includes a clean boost function, with a range from off to +12dB, and a hi-cut filter to shape edges for vintage speaker simulation. The unique LED interaction indicates the transition to wave shaping. The pedal comes with a 48VDC universal 90 to 260VAC small power supply and has a small footprint of 3.1" x 4.25".
The Holy Fire introduces analog wave-shaping technology to re-shape the waveform and achieve tube-like FX without adding noise or heavy filters, preserving the original tone. This makes the pedal very musical and responsive to playing dynamics and instrument volume, suitable for both guitar and bass. It offers a unique and versatile approach to overdrive distortion, providing a range of tones and a powerful, yet controlled, sound.
The pedal's design is a heavy, brushed stainless steel box with punched- through lettering that allows the fire-orange light inside the pedal to backlight the words, giving it a distinctive appearance. It also features a dual-colored LED that switches from red to yellow as the signal transitions from clean to wave-shaped overdrive. The pedal runs on a 48V power supply that comes with the pedal, and this voltage is utilized to create a sound unlike most gain/overdrive/distortion pedals on the market.
In summary, the Holy Fire by Creation Audio Labs is a unique and versatile overdrive distortion pedal that offers transparent gain, dynamic smooth overdrive, and thick rich distortion, all while preserving the original tone and providing a wide range of tonal possibilities for guitar and bass players.
