MWFX Judder 2022

A mid-fi sampler/repeater pedal that drops in loops of echo, volume, pitch and modulation effects on the fly using an intuitive switching system.

The Judder pedal is instant phrase sampler of 27ms - 300ms (10 seconds max at low bit rate), with the ability to easily manipulate the rate (pitch) and switching using a momentary footswitch, triggered envelope and LFO control.

An imitation tape loop circuit records silently in the background. Holding down the momentary footswitch toggles from record to playback - where it outputs a loop of what last went in. Releasing the button briefly records in snippets of sound, to cut up & add more to the loop.

The fast but clickless switching and feedback path circuitry allows for quick infinite loops that degrade very slowly over time with analogue character.
