Description:
TINY BUT MIGHTY.
We took the world’s most iconic overdrive sounds and stuffed them inside the smallest effects pedal ever created. Cicada may be minuscule, but it has more than enough might to fatten your tones and give new energy to every sound wave you throw at it.
We Rethought Everything, Except the Sound.
Cicada faithfully recreates the sought-after sounds of the original Ibanez TS808 Tube Screamer* and shoehorns them into the smallest effects pedal on the planet. You get a huge variety of silky smooth, complex overdriven tones. In a comically small footprint.
Fatten Your Tone With This One Simple Trick.
Cicada utilizes a tried-and-true single-stage soft-clipping circuit, with filtering before and after the gain stage, resulting in a thick and tubelike overdrive sound. The original dynamics of your signal are preserved, even as gain is increased. The circuit’s signature mid-range boost makes it an ideal choice for fattening your sound without sacrificing clarity. It’s like magic, but it’s actually science.
Ridiculous Is Kind of Our Thing.
Cicada gives you full-bodied drive sounds and luscious sustain in a package that’s nearly as small as a 9-volt battery. Yes, we’re aware that an overdrive pedal this tiny is a bit ridiculous. But by challenging our notions of what an effects pedal has to be, a new world of possibilities opened up that we never expected. Turns out, making it small also makes it pretty awesome.
Go Where No Pedal Has Gone Before.
No matter how little space you have, there’s always room for the huge overdriven sounds of Cicada. Its small size allows it to be placed where no pedal has gone before. Running out of room on your pedalboard? No need to kick other pedals off your board—Cicada fits in the smallest open spaces in your rig. You can even place it on top of another pedal. Pedal sandwich? Yes please!
Let’s Get Weird.
An effects pedal this small is weird, but want to get even weirder? Stick Cicada on the side of your guitar. No space left in your Eurorack setup? Drop Cicada right on top of your modular rig. Want a little overdrive for your keys? Place Cicada next to your keyboard’s controls.
Is That a Pedalboard In Your Pocket, Or
Want more sounds than just overdrive? Don’t tell anyone, but chances are we’ll release other flavors of tiny pedals, and then you can make a pedalboard that fits in your pocket.
