SOLD OUT - New batch of 37 pedals initiated in October 2024. Available to preorder now. Expected ready to ship in early 2025. Identical circuit to be found in the new Repeater Fuzz Mk IV (which is in stock for immediate shipment).
Reuss Repeater
This is an extremely true-to-vintage 1960s Vox Repeat Percussion circuit, built with all the correct old 'tin can' transistors, but we have added a mixer circuit, which allows you to blend in your clean signal with the heavily chopped tremolo. This opens the pedal up to completely new effects, from the psychedelic 'strobe light' stutter of the original to a subtle shimmer.
Put in other words, we achived a depth control simply by mixing the effect circuit with clean sound - Instead of attempting to mess with the original circuit to try to adjust the amplitude of the pulses.
The original Repeat Percussion effect didn't have a level control, and could barely keep unity level. In the Reuss Repeater, we have fixed this by adding a powerful recovery gain stage at the output of the original circuit. With the MIX control all the way up (only clean sound, no effect), it turns the Repeater into a great sounding clean boost pedal, even.
The Repeater is completely handmande in the Euroean Union in tiny batches (like all Reuss pedals).
Here's David Pajo (yes, that guy from Slint etc!) demonstrating his Repeater pedal - and Tone module:
Very casual demo, demonstrating the 'MIX' control. It's an outtake from my friend Fzat's Plasmatron pedal demo session
