Red Witch reckons its Synthotron II is the “the most surreal, crazy analog pedal you’ve ever encountered” | Guitar World

guitarworld.com

Red Witch's Synthotron II boldly claims to be "the most surreal, crazy analog pedal you've ever encountered," and it mostly delivers on that promise. With dual analog synth oscillators, an envelope filter, and a plethora of unique sound-shaping options, this pedal is a playground for creativity. The ability to use its synth and filter sections independently or together adds versatility that players will appreciate. However, while the pedal's expansive capabilities might be overwhelming for some, it may also deter those seeking straightforward effects. Priced at $199.99, the Synthotron II offers significant value, but its complexity might not be for everyone. Ultimately, it’s a thrilling addition for adventurous musicians willing to explore its depths.

Red Witch's Synthotron II elevates the original model with enhanced controls and a vibrant sound palette, seamlessly blending analog synthesis with filter sampling. Its monophonic design allows for rich, layered textures, perfect for guitar or bass. However, while it excels in creative potential, some may find its complexity daunting at first. Overall, this pedal is a testament to innovation in sound manipulation, inviting players to explore its vast sonic landscapes.
