The OctaHive is a super high gain fuzz with a well pronounced high pitch octave. The octave can be turned off by the toggle switch, turning it into a warmer and thicker fuzz pedal. The best way to achieve a well pronounced octave sound is by rolling off on the PRE gain and tone control on your instrument. The balance between  PRE and Honey is the key to achieve a variety of sounds. On the octave mode, things can get really nasty, splashy, and gated. It's great for high gain leads, especially when played above the 12th fret. With a little less HONEY you can get that "purple haze" tone. At low gain settings, it can produce "ring modulator" overtones, great for textures. With the octave off, it's a whole different pedal, producing a warmer and thicker fuzz tone, making it more versatile and "chord friendly". The OctaHive was based on the 1970's Tycobrahe Octavia and it can produce classic and modern sounds. A great addition to every pedalboard.

OVERHIVE The Overhive is an extremely versatile medium gain overdrive. It’s round and warm tone respects your amp, enhancing it’s best qualities while dynamically reacting to your playing. This pedal achieves the elusive mid-gain overdrive without making you feel a disconnect between you and your amp. Your sound remains punchy and direct with a warm musical break up and singing sustain. The controls give you nearly infinite possibilities. While the "Body" switch it's great for when you are switching guitars on a set or just feel like adding a low-end boost, the "Hive" switch can make you sound bigger and fatter, or tighter and thinner. The "Honey" control just adds sugar. Roll it down for a nice and smooth crunch, or roll it up for a smooth and dynamic drive, where your hands dictate the breakup. You also got tone control and master volume. With so many possibilities, it's hard to not find a place for it on your board. It's truly a hive of sweet tones.

The Swarm is an Analog Fuzz Harmonizer that sounds like a thousand killer bees coming to get you! It basically turns your input signal into a square wave, than multiplies and divides the frequency of that wave, giving you nine possible harmonies in two different octaves. Modulation is applied to the harmonies making them go from a nearly perfect tracking harmony to a wild and uncontrollable swarm of mad bees. WORKER sets the level of your input signal, now fuzzy and buzzy. SPECIES allows you to select between 9 different intervals for your harmonies. QUEEN and DRONE set the levels for each of the harmonies that stay one octave apart. FLIGHT and STING control the modulation applied to the harmonies. They are highly interactive controls and you will find many different sounds by just messing with them. STING sets how fast or slow the harmonies will follow your playing. Turn it CCW for it to feel like the harmonies sting you at every note you play. Turn it CW and the harmonies will sound like a drunk bee hovering up and down around the root. FLIGHT will set the response of the modulation. CCW the harmonies will keep it oscillating up and down, while CW it will glide and hold from one note to the next. MASTER control will set your output volume. With all that said, no matter how one tries to explain the theory and what each control does, the Swarm is best when played by instinct.

The Whocta Hell is a low octave fuzz, with fully independent controls for the fuzz and the octave. It’s a overdrive/fuzz summed up with a gnarly squared wave low octave, resembling an 8-bit bass synthesizer. Its octave has a range of one or two low octaves, selectable by a toggle switch, and also has its own separate bypass switch. The od/fuzz and octave work fully independently and can be used separately. The magic really happens when you start blending them together and finding your sweet spots. You can create a large range of tones, that can be used on many different ways. It’s up to you to choose between an indie rock lead, a bass synth or super mario bro sounding theme! No matter what you are into, the Whocta Hell will inspire you to create new music. Just do not forget, it is a beeast!
