Death by Audio Effects has created a line of pedals that focus on several things, but most of all, they focus on being loud. The company doesn’t take itself too seriously, as evidenced by their website, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t serious about their work. They put everything they have into the various pedals they have created, and you won’t find a more dedicated group of individuals.
Death by Audio Effects has a number of different pedals for sale. One of the first pedals they created, and one of their most famous, is the Total Sonic Annihilation pedal. While it may not be for the more traditional players, the Total Sonic Annihilation pedal is great for anyone who wants to do a little experimenting and have a pedal that provides an incredibly unique sound.
The Fuzz War pedal, on the other hand, is a great pedal for anyone who wants a lot of fuzz in their sound. It’s a very affordable high-tech fuzz mutilator, but just because it’s low in price doesn’t mean it uses low-grade components. Quite the contrary—this pedal uses only the best in materials, just like all Death by Audio Effects products.
Then there’s the Robot. It’s a low fidelity eight bit transposer that will take any input and synthesize it just about any way you like. All you have to do is adjust the control know to normal, octave up, octave down, or arpeggiator and you’ll get some incredible sounds out of this little device.
These three are just a few of the products Death by Audio Effects offers. All are high quality pedals that provide many different options for the discerning player who is looking for something a little bit different.

Death by Audio Supersonic Fuzz Gun The Death by Audio Supersonic Fuzz Gun was designed to go from extremely warm, rich fuzz to the harshest, grating buzzsaw tones you could imagine. Equipped with a Gate/Oscillation mode switch the Supersonic Fuzz Gun works in two separate modes. The Oscillation mode keeps oscillation tones going whether you're playing or not for all out sonic mayhem. Gate mode is perfect for muted, gated fuzz. The Death by Audio Supersonic Fuzz Gun features controls for Bias, Density, Fuzz, Filter, and Level. The Density control affects the frequency range going into the pedal. Bias controls the overall tone of the fuzz. The Filter control filters out the high frequencies taking away the harsh grind and warming up the effect.

The Death by Audio Robot is the latest in a line of sonic mayhem inducing pedals from our boys in NYC. The Robot brings Death by Audio into the low-fi, bit-crushing business. This insane pedal is a lo-fi pitch transposer that produces sweet, 8-bit ring mod effects to your guitar. The Robot features four operational modes; Normal, Octave Up, Octave Down, and Arpeggiator. The Octave Up and Octave Down modes are pretty self explanatory. The Control knob, when fully clockwise, yields either octave up or down depending on the mode. When turned down, it bends the pitch of the octave down so you can dial in the exact tone you want. In Normal mode the Robot acts as a lo-fi fuzz pedal and the Control knob bends the pitch down from clockwise. The amount of fuzz can be further toyed with using the internal gain control. Now the fun part. The Death by Audio Robot also features an arpeggiator. The pitch will arpeggiate in a sequence and the Control knob will adjust the speed of the arpeggiation. It also makes a slight change in the pitch, allowing the arpeggiator to go higher. With all this fun, who needs anything else? Arpeggiation, whacky robotic nonsense, and 8-bit fuzz fun are all jam packed together in the Death by Audio Robot.
Death by Audio Robot Features:
* True Bypass
* Internal Gain Control
* Octave Up/Down
* Arpeggiator
* Insanity!
