Farm Pedals Landau Density Matrix Fuzz Effect Pedal
Concerning interesting Muff-style circuits of recent memory, the Farm Pedals Landau Density Matrix quickly comes to mind. Handmade and hand-stamped in Casco, Maine, this lo-fi fuzz is a great pick for Muff-style sonic experiments.
The Landau Density Matrix summons a distinctly open and wooly Muff-style fuzz from its handmade circuitry. Utilizing only two dials for Volume and Density, this pedal plays differently from other Muff-style fuzzes. This comes from the pedal’s use of D9 series germanium diodes and the removal of the Tone knob, usually very common to Muff-style circuits. By routing the entirety of the Landau Density Matrix’s controls to two dials, this pedal allows for new tonal discoveries via the interaction between the two parameters.
On lower settings, the Landau breaks up at a more lo-fi flavor of fuzz – which is distinctly lower gain but still a fuzz through and through. Rolling upwards on the Density knob will summon a thicker fuzz voice, favoring a brighter, more treble-minded signal. Throughout the entire span of the Landau Density Matrix’s Density knob, buckets of bluesy, fuzzy, effortlessly sustaining breakup pour out to meet new, fuzzy conclusions. Operating on many levels as a lo-fi fuzz, this Farm Pedals creation fits in seamlessly alongside their catalog of charming, rough-around-the-edges pedals. Plug in this bad boy and drench yourself in the distorted, lo-fi goodness.
