Electro-Harmonix Signal Pad Passive Attenuator Pedal Overview
The Electro-Harmonix Signal Pad Passive Attenuator Pedal is a versatile and straightforward tool for guitarists looking to dynamically control their sound on the fly. This pedal functions like a volume knob on your guitar, but with the convenience of being foot-switchable, allowing you to toggle between different volume levels effortlessly.
Key Features:
Passive Attenuation: The Signal Pad is entirely passive, meaning it doesn’t require any power supply or battery to function. It simply reduces the signal level without adding any coloration to your tone, preserving the natural sound of your guitar and amp.
Volume Control: Use the Signal Pad to set a lower volume level while keeping your amp’s volume high for overdrive. This setup lets you switch between clean and overdriven tones instantly by turning the pedal on and off.
Tone Exploration: Placing the Signal Pad in different spots in your effects chain can yield new tonal possibilities. For example, placing it before a distortion pedal can reduce the gain for a milder drive sound, while placing it after can decrease the overall volume without affecting the drive.
Compact and Durable: The pedal is built with a rugged, compact design, making it a reliable and space-saving addition to your pedalboard.
True Bypass: It features true bypass switching, ensuring that your signal remains unaffected when the pedal is not engaged.
