Description

The Break Box distortion pedal from Rainger FX is unlike any effects pedal you've encountered. Designed to push your creative boundaries, this sound device merges wide ranging distortion, dynamic sustain, and a unique vinyl scratch effect, all while keeping your sound clear and precise.

Rooted in the heritage of the 2009 Rainger FX El Distorto overdrive pedal, the Break Box enhances its predecessor's powerful tone by integrating the legendary Tonebender tone stack, straight from Rainger FX's collaboration with Colorsound. This creates a rich, versatile distortion with deep lows, balanced mids, and striking highs. Whether you're after a subtle crunch or an intense, high gain roar, the Break Box delivers.

One of the standout features is the delayed chorus 'active sustain'. When holding a note or chord, a chorus effect gradually swells, adding depth and dimension to your sound. This effect is adjustable, allowing you to set the chorus speed from a gentle sweep to a rapid oscillation, giving every note and chord a unique flavour. Fast chords maintain clarity, while sustained notes bloom into a lush, resonant chorus. The integrated noise gate ensures that when you're not playing, the pedal is silent, eliminating unwanted hums and hisses.

The Break Box’s most exciting feature is its vinyl scratch effect. By pressing the turntable pad, your guitar mimics the iconic sound of a DJ scratching vinyl. This effect is not a pre recorded sample but is generated live within the pedal, with adjustable pitch and speed to recreate the authentic scratch sensation. Whether you’re going for short, rhythmic bursts or longer, sweeping scratches, the Rainger FX Break Box keeps the sound organic and expressive. Play dampened strings for sharp triggers or full notes for extended scratching.

Built for versatility, the Rainger FX Break Box's analogue distortion circuit has been meticulously refined to perform across a wide range of scenarios. Meanwhile, its digital components manage the scratch effect, noise gate, and chorus with precision. The hi/lo trigger sensitivity switch provides optimal control, accommodating various instrument outputs effortlessly.

Aesthetically, the Break Box is housed in Rainger FX’s custom asymmetrical enclosure, finished in striking pink and black. This distinctive design not only stands out visually but also reflects the pedal's innovative retro spirit.

The Rainger FX Break Box is a playground for musicians who crave something extraordinary. Whether you’re looking to add a gritty distortion, lush sustained chorus, or a DJ inspired scratch effect, the Rainger FX Break Box brings a new level of creativity to your music. It's perfect for guitarists, bassists, and anyone looking to experiment with fresh, engaging sounds. Unlock new sonic possibilities with the Rainger FX Break Box, where classic meets cutting edge.
