Dreadbox Psyclop

The Dreadbox Psyclop pedal is a multifunctional tool designed to enhance and manipulate effects chains. It's not a traditional effect pedal but a utility device that offers several features to optimize your pedalboard setup.

Key Features

• Effects Chain Loop: The Psyclop can manage and manipulate an entire effects chain or a single pedal, providing extensive control over your signal path.
• Dry/Wet Mixer: It includes a dry/wet mix control, allowing you to blend your clean signal with the effected signal for a balanced sound.
• Attenuator & Booster: The pedal can function as an attenuator and booster, giving you control over signal levels for optimal performance.
• Expression to CV Converter: Converts expression pedal inputs to control voltage (CV), expanding the modulation possibilities for your other gear.
• True-Bypass: Ensures that your signal remains uncolored when the pedal is not engaged.

Connectivity and Controls

• Inputs/Outputs: Features standard TS unbalanced 6.4mm jacks for input and output, and a TRS type expression input.
• CV In/Out: Includes 3.5mm TS mono jacks for CV input and output, with a CV output range of 0-5V and a maximum CV input of ±12V.
• Power Supply: Operates on a standard 9V DC BOSS-style center pin negative power supply (not included).
• Compact Design: The dimensions are 14 x 9 x 5.6 cm, making it an easy fit on any pedalboard.
• Current Draw: The pedal draws 25mA of current, making it power-efficient.

Applications

The Dreadbox Psyclop is ideal for musicians looking to enhance their pedalboard's functionality. It can be used as a mixer, boost, effects loop, and more, providing versatile utility in a compact form. It's particularly useful for managing complex signal chains and integrating expression pedal controls into modular setups.
