Active Acid, capable of transforming your instrument like few pedals can, is a powerful four-pole low-pass analog filter with an incredible amount of control available to you, the user. Equally excellent for acid house\/techno, psych, and otherworldly ambient, it features envelope control of the cutoff with sidechain capability, LFO with 8 wave shapes and tap tempo, fully self-oscillating resonance that can shake your guts and shatter your teeth, external expression control, and a pre-filter overdrive to give it all some gnarl. Importantly, and often insanely, multiple things can control the filter at once. For example, the envelope follower and the LFO can both be manipulating the cutoff differently simultaneously, all while you use an external expression pedal too. That’s a lot of possibilities! Basically infinite really. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts heart is the beloved SSM filter found in the original Prophet-5 synth, and more than anything, Active Acid is simply a gorgeous-sounding filter pedal. With all the additional controls, it is effectively a synthesizer with your instrument as the oscillator. And yet! It’s intuitive and easy to use. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt’s incredible on guitars, bass, synth, percussion, and vocals, and playing it is addictive. Gentle, gooey filter sweeps, psychedelic chorused textures, tremolo, radical combinations of LFO and envelope response, sample-and-hold computer talk, sidechained madness and more all await.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e(Yes, it's true bypass). \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCONTROLS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVOL: Output volume\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDRIVE: Amount of pre-filter overdrive\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFREQ: Cutoff frequency, from 0hz - 13.5 kHz\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRES: Resonance\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFOLLOW: Intensity and sensitivity of envelope follower\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDEPTH: Intensity of LFO\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRATE: Speed of LFO (from .05hz to 25hz!)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWAVE: Wave shape of LFO: Ramp down \/ Ramp up \/ Square \/ Triangle \/ Sine \/ Scoop \/ Random levels (sample and hold) \/ Random slopes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eENVELOPE FOLLOWER TOGGLE (on\/off)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eENVELOPE SOURCE TOGGLE (internal\/sidechain)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eENVELOPE RESPONSE TYPE TOGGLE (sharp and fast\/smooth and mellow)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e--\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTAP TEMPO: Stomp switch\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eON \/ OFF: Stomp switch \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEXP: Jack for external expression pedal (MOOG EV-3 recommended)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSIDECHAIN: Input jack for external source to trigger envelope\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSPECS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeight: 18.5 oz\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: 5.875” x 4.75” x 2.375” (including knobs\/jacks)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePower: 9V DC 2.1mm, positive ring, negative tip jack. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCurrent draw: 88mA\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFree Shipping Continental US\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCollar City Guitars \u003c\/strong\u003eis an \u003cstrong\u003eauthorized Trap Door Electronics dealer\u003c\/strong\u003e and a \u003cstrong\u003ePreferred Reverb\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSeller\u003c\/strong\u003e, buy with confidence!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e-------------------------------------\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Trap Door Electronics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44911689859272,"sku":"2500060","price":295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/4677\/9336\/files\/activeacidWHT1.jpg?v=1769279598","url":"https:\/\/collarcityguitars.com\/products\/trap-door-electronics-active-acid-white","provider":"Collar City Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
