Key Features
The Dreadbox Treminator Smashing Tremolo Pedal is a revolutionary effect. It lets you create weird, wonderful, and expressive new sonics by harnessing the VCA stage of a synthesiser, unlocking a groundbreaking new take on tremolos. That's combined with an LFO controlled by envelope generators to really expand the available soundscape. And with these elements backed up by an analogue signal path with digital modulations, you can be sure of an authentic, full sound every time the Treminator is engaged.
And once you switch it on, you'll be staggered at the variety of sounds you can pull out of its intuitive control layout. Everything from pulsing clips to electronica style stutters can flow from the Dreadbox Treminator. And thanks to its buffered bypass switching, it'll maintain your signal integrity even on a busy pedalboard. Complete with patch points to interact with modular and cv gear, the Treminator stands ready to enhance your existing setup or transform the experience of non synth users.

The Treminator takes your sound a step further. It offers all the familiar tremolo sounds you'd expect, but with the added twist of a synth's VCA stage and an LFO controlled by two envelope generators. The result is a highly expressive sound that can range from the subtle to the extreme!
Shape the wave. A series of intuitive controls makes the Treminator a breeze to use. Tap tempo and CV connectivity allow it to slot into virtually any setup, while a series of knobs allow you dial in an astounding array of sonics.
Key amongst these are the shape and depth controls, which affect the waveform the Treminator generates and the intensity of the effect. Adjust these to manipulate your sounds in new and interesting ways, or set the Shape to random and sample a chaotic plethora of noise!
But there's more! In addition to the knobs on top, you can also influence the pedal with your playing dynamics by shifting the LFO settings. Simply hold the "ON" button and twist the fade or depth knobs to access secondary settings, allowing you to speed up the effect with hard or soft picking, and explore the waveforms in interesting ways!
Get creative. The Treminator opens countless possibilities for your setup - far beyond a standard tremolo pedal! Of course, you can use it as a classic effect, but thanks to its synth-inspired construction, you've got far more options. You can also set it as a signal chopper, an LFO accelerator/decelerator, fade in/out LFO or an LFO generator for other gear!
