Collision Devices TARS Pedal

The TARS Fuzz and Filter pedal from Collision Devices takes you on a sonic voyage that transcends traditional guitar tone. Building on the foundation of the original Black Hole Symmetry fuzz, the TARS delivers a dense fuzziness capable of cutting through any mix. When combined with the MS-20 style filter, you gain access to a universe of fuzzy, textured sounds ready to craft interstellar sonic landscapes. The Gain starts its journey after a JFET input and dives into rich silicon gain and clipping stages, while the Master dial controls your output volume. The CutOff fader allows you to adjust frequencies from 15Hz to 44kHz, and the Resonance control enhances the signal’s intensity around the cutoff.

Collision Devices TARS Pedal Review

To refine your sound, the LPF VOL acts as a VCA for filter output, enabling you to choose between a gentle -12dB/octave (2p) or a steep -24dB/octave (4p) attenuation curve with a toggle switch. The ‘Add Fuzz’ toggle introduces an additional unfiltered fuzz signal, boosting volume and manipulating frequencies based on the cutoff position. With the Serial toggle, you can decide whether the fuzz travels through the filter or runs alongside it. Plus, the Expression/CV input syncs with the cutoff fader to expand your tonal possibilities. With the TARS, your tone breaks free from earthly constraints!
