The Corruptor is a very brutal sounding CMOS-based ring modulator pedal. It turns your guitarsignal into a squarewave and modulates it against an internal oscillator. The idea behind this circuit comes from the Korg MS20 synth that uses a CD4011 to produce pseudo ringmod effects.
This circuit works best with high output pickups. It is a gated circuit by nature of the CMOS logic. If you are using single coils and need more sustain, try a boost or compressor in front. To improve tracking of the octave down, use your neck pickup with the tone rolled off.
