RED PANDA BITMAP 2 Fractional Bit Reduction / Modulation FX Pedal

 BITMAP 2  RED PANDA 

 Fractional Bit Reduction / Modulation FX Pedal 

The Bitmap 2 is a stereo bitcrusher with fractional bit reduction and sample rate modulation. The Bitmap 2 adds waveshaping, wavefolding, and a window comparator for extreme digital distortion. A drive control handles everything from single coil guitars to synthesizers, with +8 dBu maximum signal level and plenty of gain with overdrive. Modulation and envelope control create dynamic, responsive distortion and digital artifacts.

The Bitmap 2 is tuned to provide maximum sustain without sputtering on staccato notes. Less extreme settings add layers of nonlinearities that interact in subtle ways, giving you the warmth and grit of 8- and 12-bit samplers. Sample rate reduction turns your guitar into 8-bit video game sounds or twists scales into inharmonic melodies. Sample rate modulation adds subtle motion or morphs your guitar into entirely new textures.

The Bitmap 2 works with guitar, bass, synthesizers, drum machines, and other instruments or line level sources. A web-based editor allows you to edit presets and access additional parameters and modulation destinations.
