A distortion like no other!
The Beam Splitter is a distortion like no other. OBNE describes it as a Triple Tracker Distortion.
In short, Beam Splitter takes your guitar signal, makes three copies of it, and lets you add distortion and delay to it. The idea is that you can turn one guitar and make it massive sounding!
Yes, it’s a distortion but buckle up because there are filters, flangers, lo-fi vibratos, and trailing slap-back echoes to be found here too.
Each of the three copied signals are processed by three different drives (Purple, Green and Blue) each with their own controls.
This means you can have three different overdrive sounds coming from the pedal.
These sounds can be all sent to your amp in parallel mono, or you can split them up individually.
The drives are all voiced quite differently.
Purple is a hard-clipping distortion, the most heavy and compressed of its drive voicings.
Green sits at the opposite end of the spectrum, with soft and hard-clipping it is the brightest sounding drive.
Blue, meanwhile, is a transistor-based drive circuit and the most neutral and reactive, packing a level of gain that sits somewhere between the Purple and Green circuits.
