Demo by Nicolas of the band Ask the Dust of the Metasonix KV-100 The Assblaster is a one of a kind tube multi-effect for guitar, synth, drum machine... really anything. I believe this is the only video demo on youtube that shows what it sounds like with a guitar. It's composed of 4 indepedant modules : a preamp, a filter/ring modulator, a pulser and a VCO. There's also a built-in gate that can trigger a really cool envelope follower effect with the right settings of filter and input level. Like a ll Metasonix devices it takes quite some time to see how all parts interact with each other, but once you get familiar with it there are literally thousands of possibilities. People usually know about how great Metasonix products are to destruct any kind of audio source, and of course they are,, but there is a lot more to them. Actually I find them really usable in a recording context, cause the one of a kind texture they bring to an arrangement never fails to lift a song . It's the exact opposite of harsh digital distortion, the fact that it's tube based makes the tones really organic and warm...perfect for fuzzy walls of sound, synth like guitars, etc... Official description : The Metasonix KV-100 is not called the "Assblaster" for nothing. We've taken all of our knowledge of extreme vacuum-tube audio processing and combined it into a single convenient, easy-to-use package. Inevitably, the end of the TM series will cause shit-eating, ass-fisting guitar players to whine about ...
