ZIM's Channel B voicing section uses 8 cascading stages of phase shift which can be mixed both in and out of phase. This creates an almost limitless palate of tones simulating different amps and mic'ing techniques. ZIM's two channels use plug-in cards, called ZIMcards, for their processing. ZIM comes with a pair of ZIMcards already installed. The current default ZIMcards are Vintage Tube in Channel A and Hot 9 in Channel B. This pair gives a wide range of overdrive sounds. If you'd like us to customize your ZIM pedal with specific ZIMcards, choose Channel A and B cards from the dropdown menu above. Did you ever wish you had a Fuzz with a level boost? Or an Octave with overdrive? Or an overdrive with a switchable treble boost? Distortion and OD in one pedal? With ZIM you can pair up different effects to create your desert island pedal. If your tastes change and you need, for example, Fuzz instead of Distortion, you don't have to change pedals. Swap out the ZIMcard and now your ZIM is a Fuzz pedal.
