The Eldritch Blast V3 by Electronic Audio Experiments is a fuzz pedal built around a high-gain octave/intermodulation generator. It features a unique transistor circuit capable of producing heavy, complex riffs or touch- sensitive textures with a ripping, splatty octave up. The pedal includes switchable active EQ that invokes sinister high-gain tones worthy of the outer gods.
Here are the electrical specifications:
- Bypass: Relay switching with true bypass
- Input impedance @ 1 kHz: 220kΩ
- Output impedance @ 1 kHz: 1kΩ
- Power: 9V DC, 2.1 mm center negative barrel. The current draw is 80mA with
both channels engaged. It is recommended to use a regulated, isolated power
supply rated for 100 mA minimum. The PSU input is protected against reverse
polarity. The pedal does not accept batteries.
Controls:
- Gain: Controls the amount of gain and low frequencies at the input.
- More: Controls the amount of signal feeding the octave circuit, adjusting
the sensitivity of intermodulation textures.
- Tone: Active peaking filters working on the highs and midrange
simultaneously, only in use when the star footswitch is on.
- Bass: Active peaking filter centered around 100 Hz, only in use when the
star footswitch is on.
- Volume: Controls the loudness amount.
- Splat: Shifts the dynamics and gating of the transistor stages, switching
between a smoother character or a harsh note decay with splatty artifacts.
- Mode: Changes transistors in the octave generator to change the texture and
amount of saturation.
- Chaos: Engages a self-oscillating mode with highly interactive squeals,
squealches, and sub-bass drones.
- Engage Footswitch: Master bypass.
- Star Footswitch: EQ on/off.
The V3 version, as of April 2023, includes the following changes:
- Redesigned Chaos toggle, now producing an oscillating effect
- Significant increase in the range of the More control
- Significant increase in gain and output volume, more than both V1 and V2
