The Bitters is a reimagining of a hyper-deranged multifx processor, the Alesis Bitrman. Featuring knobs for Distortion, Phaser and one of four choosable sound manglers, you can dial in everything from a lush chorus to a crushing barrage of noise. A handy Mix control reins in the mayhem, making for a unique soundscaping tool perfect for the pedalboard or mixing desk.

Bitters

“Antichthon” refers to the ancient Greek idea that there was a “Counter-Earth”, 180 degrees opposite of Earth, but unseeable since it was always on the opposite side of the “Central Fire” from Earth. Today, that notion sounds quaint and ridiculous. But if such a planet did indeed exist, what was it like? Was it a mirror-image world where everything was the opposite of our world? These days we have new notions of the unseeable. There’s the concept of the multiverse, that there is more than one universe, and that “big bangs” are happening all the time, the quantum foam bubbling away, giving birth to new universes. And in these universes from a higher dimension, the laws of physics that we know to be true in our home universe may not be the same.

Manual

Antichthon

The Maestro EP-3 Echoplex has been responsible for some of the most iconic tones in rock history. In 2020, we delivered a pared-down version of that preamp with the Epoch Boost. The all-new Epoch Bias expands on that circuit with a couple crucial differences. The Bias control simulates out-of-spec parts on the original, adjusting the base gain and body of the EP-3, which adds only a trivial amount of gain on its own. The new Filter control brings you the best of the early and late model EP-3, with a tasteful treble cut that lets you adapt the pedal to your rig and tone. Join us and experience the most refined version of the effect that launched a thousand discographies.

Epoch Bias

Like the classic Dirty Little Secret, the Red Edition has two distinct tonal profiles that you can experiment with. Inside the housing of the pedal, you’ll find its first secret — the SL (Super Lead) /SB (Super Bass) mode switch. The pedal ships from Catalinbread in Super Lead mode, and we recommend that you experiment with it before you put it onto your pedalboard. Once you’ve got a handle on the blistering high-gain tones of SL mode, unplug the pedal and open up the back to slide over to SB mode. Super Bass mode reconfigures the EQ and provides in-between gain levels. The SL/SB switch is like having two gain pedals in one!

Dirty Little Secret Red

Ever modest, Catalinbread describes their Tribute Low-gain Overdrive / VariOboost as “a pedal that literally every guitarist needs.” While we get the sense they might be being somewhat facetious, after testing the Tribute out at Sweetwater, we discovered that it’s a stunningly touch-sensitive dirt pedal that’s worthy of a home on any OD fanatic’s board! The Tribute’s all-analog design is modeled after an earlier Catalinbread favorite, the VariOboost, to offer an exceptionally high-headroom drive engine coupled with a one-band parametric EQ for incredible tone-shaping possibilities. From powerful low-end rhythm crunch to sparkly boosted leads on the cusp of breaking up, the Catalinbread Tribute is a uniquely simple-yet-powerful spin on the OD formula.
