The Soundblox Pro Multiwave Distortion features 23 distinct, modern, and highly tweakable effect types, plus a 7-band graphic EQ and six user preset stations. With all this flexibility and programmability, it’s the perfect pedal for both studio and stage.

What makes the Multiwave unique is its ability to distort a signal with either multi-band or single band processing. Multi-band processing splits the signal into several distinct frequencies, distorts them separately, and recombines them for the final outputted signal. The effect is a clear distortion with sturdy attack and great note articulation. Single band processing employs a more conventional approach by applying distortion to the entire signal. The result is a familiar but equally expressive set of guitar tones. The processing categories are further broken down into three subcategories, ranging from “normal”, for a somewhat traditional distortion curve, to extreme “foldback” and “octave” settings, for more aggressive and synth-like distortion tones.

The onboard 7-band graphic equalizer with a 12 dB adjustment range in both directions provides serious tone manipulation capabilities. Plus, customized tones can be saved in the 6 programmable user preset stations, available for speedy recall via three footswitches.

The Pro also includes a MIDI input allowing external access to presets and parameters, and is Hot Hand® ready for even more expressive capabilities.
