Oren Ambarchi's Gear

The Moog Moogerfooger MF-102 Ring Modulator rebuilds your sound into two separate tones and then uses an internal carrier oscillator to spread those tones apart in the frequency spectrum. The higher the carrier frequency, the more the new tones are separated. The MF-102 serves up an astounding range of effects; from slow, velvet-smooth tremolo, to chains jangling in a Chinese gong, to classic "outer space" sounds. The LFO (Low Frequency Oscillator) imparts trills, vibratos, siren effects. You want unlimited new sounds? Well the MOOG MF-102 will do the job for you as it does with Ambarchi.

The Ring Stinger is a ring modulator/fuzz octave doubler/repeater/dirt box/optical synth all rolled into one. It is the only available ring mod using the classic transformer matrix modulator (and not the ubiquitous modulator chip) which gives it the distinctive vintage ring mod sound and germanium distortion. The Ring Stinger is a very rare and unique pedal which gives Ambarchi his edge in his music both live and in the studio.
