We love Demos in the Dark’s videos highlighting lesser-known boutique manufacturers, and this week it was the turn of the Pine-Box Sirens, a chorus-vibrato with overdrive, here’s what the videographer has to say about this device:
This pedal is quite the departure from the other pedals that Pine-Box Customs makes. It’s a very cool chorus/vibrato with an added drive section that sounds a lot like tape saturation to me. It’s a lo-fi machine!
Each effect takes one side of the pedal footswitch included, with the overdrive on the left (black and red knobs) and the Chorus/Vibrato on the right (white knobs). This is a collaborative pedal, since the Chorus section was developed by Steve Demedash of Demedash Effects.
Check out the videos of the Pine-Box Sirens , below.
SIREN- Any of a group of female and partly human creatures in Greek mythology that lured mariners to destruction by their singing.
SIRENS is a dual channel chorus/vibrato and overdrive.
From subtle movement, all the way to devastation upon the rocks, Sirens can offer you warm, traditional, all analog chorus sounds or a fully wet warble. Add an overdrive on the tail end, and you have a sound platform to get lost in for days.
