Wall or Noise
With the Walrus Audio Melee, the company from Oklahoma sends the ultimate effect pedal for shoegaze and post-rock applications into the race. As a "Wall or Noise" generator, the Melee combines an extremely juicy distortion and a characterful reverb with three distinct algorithms. As the central control element, the joystick allows free adjustment of the reverb mix and distortion gain, so that in conjunction with the switch for the internal order of the effects, countless sound textures can be recalled. While three-step tone and decay switches determine the pedal's sonic character and the decay time of the reverb tail, the sustain footswitch allows you to extend the reverb into infinity. Another practical detail is the flexible bypass footswitch of the Walrus Audio Melee, which not only turns the pedal on and off permanently but can also be used as a momentary switch to set short sound highlights.
