THIRD MAN PLASMA COIL SERIES

THIRD MAN PLASMA COIL SERIES

PLASMA converts your instrument’s signal into a rapid series of electric discharges, which results in a large amount of non-linear harmonic saturation that causes extremely rich and responsive attacks, and brings out screeching sharp overtones and harmonics. HOW IT WORKS The PLASMA product series is a revolutionary approach within the realm of overdrive and distortion, as it is a new and previously unexplored method of achieving signal clipping. Boost and cut the lows and highs with the dedicated knobs. PLASMA COIL: This IS high voltage rocknroll A special version of the PLASMA Pedal: Created by Gamechanger Audio, Jack White and Third Man Records. This allows for a very wide range of frequencies. The PLASMA Coil loses the original dry input signal and creates a new signal from fluctuations in the electromagnetic field surrounding the gas-discharge tube. This feature allows you to achieve extreme contrasts between individual notes.

It is eliminating all of the in-between noises created by the instrument’s pick-ups or by humming strings. p>The Gamechanger Audio Thirdman Records Plasma Pedal is a unique offering that differentiates itself from the saturated stompbox market.

Effects footswitch toggle on the back panel – configure effects footswitch as a latching ON/OFF switch or as a momentary switch.Īs soon as you stop playing the electrical discharge within the gas-filled tube is interrupted, and the pedal will not produce any output signal at all.

Master VOLUME knob – cuts or boosts the output signal level.

Effects footswitch – engages the PLASMA COIL’s special effect circuit.

2 Mixed modes (Upper and lower harmonics combined).

1 Upper harmonic mode (Octafuzz-style octave up).

2 Subharmonic modes (Bitcrush-style octave down).

EFFECTS knob allows you to select 1 of 6 different effect types:.

VOLTAGE knob – adjusts the amount of electrical current sent to the PLASMA Tube.

2 EQ controls to boost or cut low and high frequencies.Simplified signal chain: Input -> EQ -> Octave/Effect -> Transformer to High Voltage -> Xenon Tube -> Antenna that picks up the electromagnetic vibrations surrounding the Tube -> Output The expected life of the xenon tube is 10,000 to 70,000 hours of active playing. Plasma Coil takes High Voltage distortion to new heights by adding multiple Octave-style circuits, and an additional Effects footswitch that can be toggled as latching or momentary. Even though they’ve been printing the words: “High Voltage Rock’n’Roll” on t-shirts since 1973, PLASMA Distortion is the first commercial musical device that literally amplifies the audio signal to 3500 Volts. At its heart is Gamechanger’s innovative High Voltage Distortion technology that expresses audio signal as a series of electrical discharges. The PLASMA Coil is used by Jack White on the Raconteurs’ latest album Help Us Stranger, in the subsequent tour and upcoming projects. Third Man Hardware and Gamechanger Audio announce the PLASMA Coil, a special version of the PLASMA Pedal created by Gamechanger Audio and Third Man Records.
