The Roach is a 3-way signal splitter with discrete Class-A buffers. Putting the Roach before and after your pedal board reinstates your tone and removes all the top end loss (capacitance) that running a board full of true bypass pedals will inflict on your tone.

With 3 outputs, the Roach is the perfect companion for the Mini Zuul® or Zuul®+, just plug in one of the outputs to the ‘Key In’ on the Zuul® and your original, clean, guitar signal will be the one controlling the Zuul®. A mind blowing amount of options are available to you with the Roach, not only can you trigger your gate, but you can send one signal to your amp and another to the interface so you are recording the signal before it hits amp saturation - with this additional control, you can re-amp the guitar afterwards to ensure it is sitting perfectly in your mix. You can also run multiple amps simultaneously, making your tone bigger than it has ever sounded.

The Roach is an exceptionally low-current circuit and can be run on a 9vdc battery for the longest time, or an external power supply can be used via the DC inlet, between 9-24vdc.

Indicator Green LED for active, Red LED mutes OUT 1-3.

A mosfet input protects if the wrong orientation adapter is connected, no more damage internally (the pedal will not power up). Proudly made in North America.

Roach

The Fuzz))) is our nod towards some of the greatest doom, grit, drone and sludge tones ever heard but at the same time, retaining its own, unique, unmistakable Fortin character.

It couldn’t be easier to use as the Fuzz))) only has three controls - Standard fuzz control, output volume and a girth control that adds a massive low end thickness to take your tone into, and beyond, previously unchartered sonic realms of destruction.

Fuzz )))

The Zuul®+ takes everything that made the original Zuul® legendary and adds multiple new, essential, features. The first thing we wanted to do was expand the ‘Key In’ functionality (that makes the gate active after OD/Boost pedals, reacting to the pure guitar signal), Zuul®+ now boasts a ‘Key Thru’ (complete with ground lift switch), that eliminates the need to split the signal externally. We have also added all new Hold and Release controls that give you everything you need to ensure you have pristine gating response in your rig.

Review by Plague Scythe Studios

Zuul+ Blackout

The Tempest was designed as a high output overdrive pedal that would work perfectly pushing ANY amp into the brutal, exacting tone they are renowned for. For crushing uber-tight rhythm tones, have the level up and the gain down, add some gain for lead playing, and your sustain will ring out like never before. Your amp will not believe what is hitting it and your tone will be elevated to all new levels of brutality while keeping the tightest control.

Tempest

All the same features as the original Zuul® but in mini-form factor!
The mini Zuul®'s threshold knob also controls the dynamics of the gate circuit. Perfect for guitar, bass or any signal source because of the high quality studio specifications.
Use in front of an amplifier or in a series effects loop. Dual colour LED for visual feedback gating action: Green = Open, Orange = Closed, Off = Bypass.
The KEY input signal can be directly from your guitar (r.e. split from Roach or Spliff) or other signal source which lets you go from clean to high gain without changing the Threshold knob. This powerful feature lets you control the gate with a different signal than what flows through the input/output jacks of the ZUUL®. Side switch (internal jumper on early versions) to change the threshold range to compensate for different input signal levels. Industry standard true bypass switching.
