Description
Taking a leap from making pedals sometimes described as instruments, Old Blood Noise Endeavors proudly announces their first instrument (which happens to be shaped like a pedal): the IOTA Tone Generator. Iota takes an oscillator and sends it through your pedal-board based on a number of parameters you set. Pick a root note, scale intervals, range, and octave for your notes; scramble them up if you want; set how they bend, glide or swing; apply an envelope with a few different shapes and timings; set a direction and rate for the sequencer; add random or patterned skips and holds; then finally, hit the footswitch to set everything in motion and free up your hands to turn knobs across your whole setup.
