However, the Zuul will buffer the signal so if you are not already running a buffer you may feel like the Zuul inserts \"top end\" into your tone. The Zuul is not adding this to your tone, it is simply restoring what is already there, giving you an actual representation of the tone coming from your instrument!\u003cbr\u003eQ: It's not working in the effects loop properly, what's happening?\u003cbr\u003eA: One of the most common questions we get is problems in the effects loop... 99% of the time this is due to the loop being parallel and not series. In order for the Zuul to work correctly in the loop, it HAS to be in a series loop.\u003cbr\u003eQ: What does the key do?\u003cbr\u003eA: Placing a gate after your gain stages can prove to be annoying as the gate is looking at the effected signal to try to work out when to open and\/or close. They Key In\/Thru listens to what your instrument is doing only (as it is effectively first in the chain), and then opens and closes the gate according to your instrument and not any the floor noise, artifacts etc coming from your gain stages. When the Key is used and triggered by your instrument, the gate itself is set after your gain stages and before any delay\/reverb effects - this way you have complete control of your gate and it will not affect your other effects.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ebass-guitar; universal; electric-guitar\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ecompact\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003edc-powered\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fortin Amps","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42003215712483,"sku":"7436","price":224.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0607\/5115\/1331\/files\/FortinZuulPlustop.webp?v=1708692322"},{"product_id":"fortin-fuzz","title":"FUZZ ))) - High gain brutal Fuzz","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Fuzz))) is our nod towards some of the greatest doom, grit, drone and sludge tones ever heard but at the same time, retaining its own, unique, unmistakable Fortin character. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt couldn’t be easier to use as the Fuzz))) only has three controls - Standard fuzz control, output volume and a girth control that adds a massive low end thickness to take your tone into, and beyond, previously unchartered sonic realms of destruction. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSure to delight even the most fastidious tonal fuzz connoisseur,  Fuzz))) brings legendary fuzz and distortion all wrapped up in one tiny package. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDue to its size, you can only power via the DC inlet, but it will take anything between 9-24vDC (center-pin negative).

However, the Zuul will buffer the signal so if you are not already running a buffer you may feel like the Zuul inserts \"top end\" into your tone. The Zuul is not adding this to your tone, it is simply restoring what is already there, giving you an actual representation of the tone coming from your instrument!\u003cbr\u003eQ: It's not working in the effects loop properly, what's happening?\u003cbr\u003eA: One of the most common questions we get is problems in the effects loop... 99% of the time this is due to the loop being parallel and not series. In order for the Zuul to work correctly in the loop, it HAS to be in a series loop.\u003cbr\u003eQ: What does the key do?\u003cbr\u003eA: Placing a gate after your gain stages can prove to be annoying as the gate is looking at the effected signal to try to work out when to open and\/or close. They Key In\/Thru listens to what your instrument is doing only (as it is effectively first in the chain), and then opens and closes the gate according to your instrument and not any the floor noise, artifacts etc coming from your gain stages. When the Key is used and triggered by your instrument, the gate itself is set after your gain stages and before any delay\/reverb effects - this way you have complete control of your gate and it will not affect your other effects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eelectric-guitar; bass-guitar\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ecompact\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003edc-powered\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fortin Amps","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43832021319907,"sku":"7436-BO","price":224.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0607\/5115\/1331\/files\/FortinZuulPlusBlackouttop.webp?v=1708692345"},{"product_id":"natas-pedal","title":"NATAS® - Modern Hi-Gain | Pre-Amp","description":"\u003cp\u003eMany Fortin amps have achieved legendary status over the years - but only one has had players constantly talking, constantly chasing and constantly looking to recreate the legendary tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe want players to be able to find that tone from their own rig, be able to drop the NATAS pedal in and feel the brutal power, absolute articulation and depth of gain that made the NATAS amp the legend it is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe NATAS is a staggering feat of engineering, a sound and response never experienced from a gain pedal -  cascading gain stages, a perfectly placed 3 band active EQ, additional Kill gain boost and a Mid Shape (mid scoop or hump) switch, ensures that the NATAS Distortion brings the authentic Fortin tone to a dirt pedal, for the very first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnleash Pure Sonic Chaos with the Fortin NATAS Pedal: where raw power meets relentless clarity.

The HD transitions from clean boost to overdrive, delivering the best of both worlds. The DRIVE sweep is key; it doesn’t add dirt until about 10-11 o’clock, allowing you to drive the front end of your amp while enjoying its natural character. At higher gain settings, you get a sweet midrange push that elevates your tone again;F9 mode: This F9 mode is a step up in output level push that gives you the ability to push your amplifier to drive more naturally while keeping the character of the amp intact. The F9 mode uses an alternative clipping circuit, enabling it to provide a fully clean boost when the DRIVE control is set to lower counter-clockwise positions. As the DRIVE is increased, it transitions into a more natural-sounding, tube-like drive compared to traditional offerings. The F9 is voiced with an enhanced midrange, accentuating harmonics for more articulate pick attack. LEVEL output is twice as much as the HD mode; andF808 mode: The F808 surpasses the other two modes in output level and saturation, functioning as an amp booster or a pure distortion pedal. The Primary clipping stage creates the natural breakup with a secondary clipping stage added to the DRIVE control. This additional gain stage provides a natural-sounding, tube-like overdrive with enhanced compression and organic bloom as the DRIVE control is increased clock-wise. This mode enhances the upper midrange to accentuate pick attack and harmonics while preserving the low-end depth.

Treble: Active circuitry, controls the High frequencies.Girth and Grind: Tone shaping happens here; both of these excite specific frequencies that can make your tone spring to life - almost feels like the strings are bouncing under your fingers.Mid Shape: Places an EQ curve across the base tone to give that more modern, scooped tone or a more classic mid hump.
