BASS SYNTH
MATRYOSHKA
8 SELECTABLE MODES
BUY

A versatile and powerful bass synth pedal

with 8 selectable modes.

Instantly responds to the pitch and envelope of your input signal, delivering a fat, full synth sound with low latency.

Two synth tones can be output simultaneously — blending them together opens up a vast palette of sounds.

Mix in your dry signal for a synth unison effect that keeps your original tone alive.

Mix the original octave with one octave below to craft an even deeper, more powerful sound.

Dialing back the mix keeps things tight and articulate — equally at home on guitar.

8 MODES
  • Vibrato

    Modulates pitch to create a rich, undulating tone.

    Mix with out1 to achieve a lush chorus effect.

  • LFO

    Cyclically sweeps the filter to create a swelling, undulating tone.

    LFO depth is controlled by the Sensitivity knob, enabling dynamic and expressive synth sounds.

  • Distortion

    Distorts the synth output to dial in a gnarly acid bass tone.

    Combine with out1 for crushing distortion while preserving the low-end punch.

    * In this mode, the low frequencies of out1 are boosted for optimal pairing with distortion.

  • Bit Crush

    Crushes the bit rate of the synth output for a gritty, digital distortion.

    Adjusting Sensitivity transforms the sound into a vocal-like synth tone.

  • Pitch Shifter

    Shifts the out2 pitch relative to out1: down a 4th, detune, up a 5th, or up an octave.

    Blending out1 and out2 produces an exceptionally massive bass sound.

  • Arpeggiator

    Alternates between the input octave and one octave below.

    Crank up the rate for a retro 8-bit game-like tone.

    * In this mode, the high frequencies of out1 are boosted for optimal pairing with out2.

  • Filter Sample & Hold

    Moves the filter frequency in a randomly periodic pattern.

    Maxing out the resonance causes the filter to self-oscillate,

    outputting random pitches.

  • Aliaser Sample & Hold

    Moves the bit crush frequency in a randomly periodic pattern.

  • Oct
    Mixes the input octave with one octave below.
  • Res
    Adjusts the filter tone. Turn right for an increasingly aggressive sound; fully cranked triggers self-oscillation.
    (Note: Self-oscillation produces a very loud sound. Use with caution.)
  • Ctrl
    Adjusts the sound for each mode.
  • Clean
    Adjusts the dry signal volume.
  • Out1
    Adjusts the volume of the unprocessed synth output. Mix with out2 to craft an even fatter sound.
  • Out2
    Adjusts the volume of the FX synth output selected by the mode knob.
