BOUM is a full analog stereo warming unit, combining an easy-to-use compressor, a versatile distortion generator and a smooth low-pass filter. BOUM is the perfect tool when you need to add warmth, thickness, and character to your sounds, but also apply severe distortion and extreme compression treatments. BOUM is based on an original and unique circuit, including the following stages :
INPUT GAIN – COMPRESSOR – LO CUT FILTER – HI CUT FILTER – NOISE GATE – DISTORTION GENERATOR
Features

– BOOST : soft clipping amplifier, perfect for subtle harmonic enhancement.
– TUBE : asymmetrical tube distortion emulator based on MOSFET technology. Generate mostly a second harmonic distortion.
