Perfect for slow fuzz action where the texture of a sound is as important as the size of it. After the gain structure, signal goes to the filter-stage for final frequency shaping (and a bit hard clipping), to achieve it&#8217;s own signature sound. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\">The frequency response of the Bear in blue is tailored to maintain bass frequencies so the bass and synth players can get their piece of action.<\/span><\/td>\n<td width=\"40%&quot;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-705\" src=\"https:\/\/pochardmusic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_3331t-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pochardmusic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_3331t-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pochardmusic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_3331t-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/pochardmusic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_3331t-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/pochardmusic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_3331t-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/pochardmusic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_3331t.jpg 605w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\">Invigorate your performance with a external control to shake things up.

The mode switch changes between three different filter types, with self oscillating low-pass and high-pass, giving you the ultimate tool to craft your sound.
