Dwarfcraft Devices Memento

We saw Dwarfcrat Devices Memento's prototype at Winter NAMM 2014 and immediately liked it and blogged about it, maybe because one of our favorite effects when we were kids was to switch the guitar's pick up on and off to create some kind of controlled square tremolo effect, and this pedal does pretty much the same thing (and beyond) - they call it "Intelligent kill switch"! We are happy to report that the pedal is finally ready and Dwarcraft's Benjamin Hints has released this demo video of the unit - he seems pretty excited about it!... Click on the title for more

One of the most fun tricks we learned in our youth from great indie bands like The Pixies and R.E.M is to use the guitar's pickup switches to turn the long notes on-and-off, which generates some sort of manually controlled square tremolo effect. But what about having a stompbox that does exactly that and adds some extra features to it? Enter Memento,  a prototype Dwarfcraft Devices presented at Winter NAMM 2014. This is a simple pedal for the creative guitarists, that features a "Kill" footswitch on the right - which doesn't lock and turns the sound off when pushed - and a "Recall" one on the left - which basically has the function to loop whatever on/off pattern you created with the Kill button....
