If you're tempted to compare the Dreadbox Komorebi to traditional flanger and chorus effects, guess again. This progressive modulator is designed to make your guitar, synth, or bass parts stick out in the best way! The Komorebi stompbox employs an analog bucket-brigade-based signal path to achieve its wild swings and wailing chorusing. Three LFO wave shapes accessible from the front panel make it easy to dial in everything from peaky filter effects to clangorous metallic drones. Cranking the Feedback knob quickly takes you into ring mod territory, and dialing back the Static knob from its full 40ms down to 2ms lets you rake in some pretty dramatic comb filtering. What's especially cool is that the Dreadbox Komorebi is just as at home on your pedalboard as is it perched upon your Eurorack; a trio of CV patch points lets you integrate Komorebi seamlessly into your favorite modular synth rigs and more.
