OBNE Blackcap Pedal FAQs

What Makes the OBNE Blackcap Different From Other Tremolo Pedals?

The Blackcap asynchronous harmonic dual tremolo pedal combines both an analog tremolo and a digital harmonic tremolo in one unit. This allows you to create complex, layered modulation effects beyond traditional tremolo sounds.

Can I Use the Analog and Digital Tremolos at the Same Time on the OBNE Blackcap?

Yes! You can run them in parallel for a blended effect or in series for a more interactive and evolving tremolo experience.

What Waveforms Are Available on the Digital Harmonic Tremolo?

The digital side of the Blackcap Old Blood Noise pedal offers five wave shapes: sine, triangle, square, saw, and reverse saw. This gives you a wide range of tremolo styles, from smooth and subtle to sharp and percussive.

How Does the Tap Tempo Function Work on the Old Blood Noise Blackcap?
