Dirt Transmitter Fuzzdriver The Dirt Transmitter is dual transistor crumbling fuzz tone. The bias control affects the voltage to the transistors which can create super cool gated velcro fuzz when turned counter clockwise or bring it back to life by turing it clockwise. It's "properly biased" around 2'OClock on the dial. Adjusting the tone with the bias is a must to achieve a wide range of sounds. The fuzz control can produce tones from overdrive like break up to all out thick ripping fuzz tones while never getting flabby. Excessive amounts of volume and virtually no extraneous noise. Works great with both single coils and humbuckers, clean up with the guitar volume is excellent . Controls:Bias Fuzz Level Tone(Allow 3 week minimum shipping time)
The Hoof Reaper features our popular Hoof and Tone Reaper fuzz pedals in one handy enclosure with the added bonus of an old school analog octave up. It was originally released as a special limited run item back in 2010 and demand was so high that we decided to reintroduce it back into our line on a semipermanent basis. This device will be manufactured in limited quantities.
The Talons is an extremely versatile overdrive with options of a clean OD all the way to heavy metal and everything in between. In EarthQuaker style this all handmade machine will not break the bank, coming in at just $195.
From EQD: "The Talons Overdrive is a project we have been working on for a long time at EQD. After nearly a year of variations and fine tuning we finally nailed the versatility we were after! It very well may be the best and most useful go-to overdrive we have ever heard! Embracing best-of-breed functionalities, it features a full active tone stack, a presence control for sculpting the top end and more gain than one should ever need from an overdrive in a very compact format. Unlike all our other overdrives, the Talons was not designed to emulate any specific sound or era. It can be glassy and open, scooped and chunky, gritty and wild, light and airy, drunk and unhinged... Maximize your visionary functionalities with the Talons! Artwork by the legendary Dan Grzeca!"
The Talons is an ultra flexible dirt machine that can go from clean to crunch and everything in between with a swift turn of the gain control. Add to that a powerful active 3 band equalization sector and some top end contour via the presence control and you’ve got one versatile little buddy at your disposal. Unlike all our other overdrives, the Talons was not designed to emulate any specific sound or era. It can be glassy and open, scooped and chunky, gritty and wild, light and airy, drunk and unhinged… it will not disappoint you.

Measures
4 5/8″ x 2 1/2″ x 2.25″ with knobs
Power
A standard 9-18 volt DC power supply intended for musical instruments with a negative center 2.1mm barrel. 18v will yield higher headroom with a slightly brighter, stronger tone and more volume. We strongly recommend a high quality power supply with isolated outputs and good filtering to avoid unwanted noise. Will also run off a 9v battery for you olde tymee types.
Controls
Treble: Noon is flat, boost is clockwise from noon, cut is counter clockwise from noon. Middle: Noon is flat, boost is clockwise from noon, cut is counter clockwise from noon. Bass: Noon is flat, boost is clockwise from noon, cut is counter clockwise from noon. Presence: Adjusts the top end and upper mids to control the amount of “sizzle” in the dirt. Turn clockwise for a brighter tone, counter clockwise to mellow it out. Gain: Preamp volume control. Controls the amount of dirt available, from clean to heavy crunch. Level: Master volume control. There is a lot of level on tap, please adjust accordingly.
We get a lot of questions on this more than fantastic overdrive by EarthQuaker Devices and as OD's go it's on of the best not to mention one of our personal favorites.
Monarch Overdrive
The Monarch Overdrive is an all discrete, FET based dirt machine. It’s designed around the input stage of a vintage amp produced by a company that bears the same name as the color of the monarch (hint...). It’s been configured to produce higher gains that sound very natural and free of compression. The treble and bass controls function as frequency boosters, not the traditional roll off filters in most OD’s. They are located in the preamp section and have a large impact on the over all tone, nature and distortion characteristics of the pedal as well as your amp. It gives big bottom end with a snappy, bright top at all gain ranges with some careful tuning of the tone controls. If you are looking for an overdrive for big fat chords with excellent low end retention, this is it! And, yes, it's true bypass.

Tone Job
Welcome to the Tone Job, a complete tone enhancement tool designed around a stereo preamp to cover as much frequency range as possible. What does this mean for you, the user? It means it can handle a wide variety of frequencies from electrical guitars, bass guitar, synthesizer machines and just about anything else you can plug in. The treble, bass and middle controls can cut or boost up to 20db. In addition to that, the level control will boost the signal (post EQ) up to 5 times the input depending on where the dial is set. It's very plug and play and easy to dial in on all applications.
Controls
Level: Post EQ volume control. Can boost the signal up to 5x the input. Unity is around 10 O’ Clock.
Treble: Noon is flat, boost is clockwise from noon, cut is counter clockwise from noon.
Bass: Noon is flat, boost is clockwise from noon, cut is counter clockwise from noon.
Middle: Noon is flat, boost is clockwise from noon, cut is counter clockwise from noon.
Treble affects frequencies from around 2k Hz up, bass affects frequencies from around 500 Hz down. The middle is an adjustable resonant filter acting as a mid-range control with it’s center frequency around 1k Hz. Treble and bass response are dependent on middle control settings.
SPEAKER CRANKER IS NOT A BOOSTER, IT'S AN OVERDRIVE.
The Speaker Cranker is an all discrete dirt enhancement device designed to give your amp some grit and a slight boost without drastically changing the character or tone of your set up. It’s perfect for those that don’t like to fiddle with pesky controls yet want to add a little tube-like breakup or enhance an already over driven amp (or pedal) to give it some extra crunch without over loading the preamp. The single “More” control allows you choose the amount of break up you desire. Just like you would with a tube amp, back it off to thin out the sound and clean it up or crank it up for a fuller sound with a bit of compression.

This is one of our favorites of EarthQuaker Device's line up and it demands attention!
The Bit Commander is a monophonic analog guitar synthesizer with four octaves of vintage square wave synth tones. It’s no-nonsense interface makes it easy to add or subtract octaves to create a wide variety of sounds without having to dial in envelopes or oscillators. Ripping sub-octave thump, pulsing octave down, a lightly squared base tone and a swelling transformer based octave up all join together to make a single guitar sound like an army of olde tyme synths.
Like all analog octave effects, there are some basic rules to follow that will get you the most enjoyment from your Bit Commander. Use the neck pickup and play single notes. The best tracking occurs from the 7th fret up on all the strings. Below the 7th will still track but there will be occasional glitches and stutters. The lower the note, the harder it is for the Bit Commander to register. The use of Bass and lower registers on keyboards will yield unexpected, sometimes pleasing, sometimes disgusting results. These are not mistakes or flaws, it is the nature of analog octaves.
Controls:
Sub: Two octaves down level
Down 1: One octave down level
Up 1: One octave up level
Base: Squared input signal level
Level: Master volume
Filter: Tone control, more highs clockwise, more warmth counter clockwise

Their latest release, The Organizer is here and it is unbelievably cool!
We have it here and it's ready for your board.
The Organizer is so popular already that upon ordering be ready to wait 7 days before it ships.
*We will post a demo of this pedal soon*
The Organizer is a polyphonic organ emulator designed to mimic the organ tones of yesteryear crossed with the highly unique “Guitorgan”. The organizer has a warm and very analog feel with a hint of Leslie warble that is unlike other modern octave shifters. It tracks all over the neck on both guitar and bass and will transpose single notes as well as chords. The Organizer uses a mix of analog and DSP circuitry with true bypass switching and an all analog direct (dry) signal path.
The controls:
Up: Level control for the octave up.
Down: Level control for the octave down.
Choir: This control takes a mix of the octave up and octave down setting and regenerates it. The end result is an additional 2 octaves up, 2 octaves down and direct signal with a slight delay that adds a “church organ” like feel. This control only works if the octave up and octave down are in use.
Direct: Level control for the analog dry signal.
Tone: Low pass filter for the wet signal, counter clockwise rolls off the high end.
Lag: Delay control for the wet signal. Full counter clockwise is minimal delay, delay time increases as it rotates clockwise.
PowerA standard 9 volt DC power supply with a negative center 2.1mm barrel, current draw is 70ma. No battery option.
