Data Corrupter - Modulated Monophonic PLL Harmonizer
Unleash a torrent of sonic madness with the EarthQuaker Devices Data Corrupter - a wild, yet repeatable three-voice Modulated Monophonic PLL Harmonizer that transforms your guitar into an analog synth nightmare. At the heart of this sonic beast lies the Master Oscillator, which takes your input signal and brutally amplifies it into a crushing square wave fuzz. This signal is then multiplied, divided, and modulated to create a harmonically complex, expressive, and touch-responsive tone up to three octaves above or below the original, plus additional harmonies. Explore eight different Master Oscillator programs, each with their own unique character, and use the Frequency Modulator to apply pitch-bend modulation for smooth portamento or a retro sci-fi laser-like vibrato. The Subharmonic section takes the fuzzed-out signal and assimilates it into one of eight lower octave programs, allowing you to summon thunderous, gut-rumbling tones. But the true magic happens when you unleash the "cracked machine" hidden within the Data Corrupter. Set the Subharmonic Root switch to Oscillator and witness your input signal being mangled into the sum and difference of both the Master Oscillator and Subharmonic, with the Frequency Modulator applied to the upper and lower octaves. The result is a sonic malware that will corrupt your signal in the most delightfully chaotic way. Favored by experimental artists and sonic adventurers, the Data Corrupter is a must-have for any guitarist seeking to push the boundaries of their sound and dive headfirst into the abyss of analog synthesis.
