The Wolftone Chaos by Malekko is an analog shaping distortion pedal that offers a unique and unconventional take on octave and modulated distortion. It is proudly made in-house in Portland, Oregon using high-quality components. The pedal features three knobs, two toggles, a true-bypass footswitch, a standard 9V connection jack, and an internal battery connector.
The controls on the Wolftone Chaos include:
- Drive: allows users to create a subtle edgy quality for a slight overdrive
effect to a full-on sustained overdrive.
- Entropy: controls the interactive nature of the pedal, offering a wide
range of tones that vary based on playing dynamics and other factors.
- Volume: adjusts the output level of the pedal.
The two toggles on the pedal control dimension (second- and third-order harmonics) and hair (which engages or disengages an upper-harmonic boost). These controls interact significantly with each other, providing a wide range of tonal possibilities.
The Wolftone Chaos is known for its sensitivity to playing dynamics, with tones varying widely depending on factors such as string attack, guitar volume and tone settings, pickup selection, and amp volume. It delivers unique and unconventional tones, ranging from radical to understated, making it a versatile tool for adventurous guitarists.
The pedal's build quality is solid, with sturdy switches and smooth-turning pots. The aesthetics feature an infinity sign made of two interlinking vortexes, representing the interactive nature of the pedal controls.
Overall, the Wolftone Chaos is a unique and versatile pedal that offers a wide range of unconventional tones, making it a valuable addition to any guitarist's arsenal.
