–based effects maker Death by Audio has been thrilling us with inspiring sound-sculpting devices for several years now, and its new Disturbance pedal promises another boatload of creative aural mayhem. Billed as a Lockable LFO Modulator pedal, Disturbance includes filter, flanger and phaser capabilities with the bonus of an option to lock the LFO modulation in order to freeze eerie soundscapes in place within the sweep. The result yields a plethora of textured synth-like tones for guitar, bass or whatever you plug into it, in addition to more traditional modulation effects. And, as with most things from DBA’s mad scientists, the pedal is capable of more than first meets the eye.
