Augustus is an octave fuzz in the spirit—though not at all the same design—as the Octavia designed by Roger Mayer in the late 1960s for Jimi Hendrix. Like the Octavia, the Augustus works by rectifying the audio signal fed into it, folding each wave in two

The Hypatia is a fantastically versatile fuzz/overdrive/distortion pedal.

The basic elements are: a wide gain range, an adjustable low end, a specially designed input buffer, and a MOSFET-based output buffer. The gain range spans from ragged crunch to

Toasted is a semi-transparent, low-to-medium gain overdrive. Eschewing commonly used opamps and clipping diodes, the magic in Toasted comes from the natural overdrive of MOSFET gain stages set up like tube gain stages in an amplifier. The Toasted's elegan

The Mandorla is a colored boost pedal, inspired by vintage treble boost pedals from the ‘60s, with some modern twists. The MOSFET gain stage at the heart of the Mandorla is set up to take full advantage of the delicious non-linearity inherent to MOSFETS f

The More Me is a clean(ish) boost designed to behave as another gain stage in front of your tube amplifier. Subtle non-linearities in the single MOSFET gain stage add a touch of harmonic distortion without clipping, adding some character that you wouldn't
