Unearth the Walrus Audio Silt Harmonic Fuzz, a collaborative creation with tube expert Jim Hagerman.
Wielding an internal pre-amp tube, the Silt is a two-in-one fuzz that creates massively rich fuzz tones perfect
for chords and rhythmic parts or with the press of a switch, adds uniquely harmonic overtones to the signal
before hitting the tube. Crafted specifically for those seeking a harmonically rich fuzz experience, the Silt
boasts an analog circuit with the distinctive warmth of a 12AU7 tube as its drive section, letting you explore
a unique and wild sonic landscape.
The Silt's 12AU7 tube section drives the warm, bone-rattling fuzz. We unearthed this sonic fossil to encase
your sound in an amber warmth, while still providing the grit, growl, and harmonically complex textures that
only a tube-driven fuzz can provide.
Harmonic Mode acts as a frequency doubler before the drive section of the pedal. This produces crispy,
octave-like sounds, lending a unique edge to your lead tones. Try this with your guitar tone knob rolled off.
Refine your fuzz tones with the precision of the Contour control to achieve a wide spectrum of timbres.
Toggle between highpass, flat, and lowpass curves in the pre-tube EQ stage, like uncovering layers of sonic
strata. Especially helpful when switching between different styles of pickups. Whether you're chasing
searing leads or wooley rhythm, the Silt adapts to your style with roaring precision.
Supercharge your fuzz experience by operating the Silt anywhere between 9v and 12v. Running the pedal at
12v will give you an extra gain boost, letting you push the primal boundaries of fuzz to deliver the searing
tones you’ve been searching for.
Maintain the integrity of your original tone with the relay bypass circuit. When disengaged, the Silt ensures
your signal remains pure, allowing your guitar's natural voice to shine through undisturbed.
Volume: Control the output volume level of the pedal.
Tone: Sculpt your output tone with a lowpass/highpass tilt tone control.
Gain: Control the input gain into the fuzz circuit, from subtle, distortion-like crunch to full-throttle fuzz.
Contour: Toggle between highpass, flat, and lowpass curves in the pre-tube EQ stage.
Bypass Switch: Enable or disable the effect with the relay bypass switch, preserving your original signal
when the Silt is not in use.
Harmonic Switch: Activate or deactivate the frequency doubler circuit before the clipping stages, infusing
your sounds with octave-like textures for a unique sonic edge.
