Built around the exact same core circuit as the acclaimed Life Pedal V3, the HalfLife combines distortion, analog octave-up, and boost into a streamlined package that loses none of the crushing power of its larger predecessor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned to capture the massive front-end tones used by Sunn O))) during the recording of Life Metal, the HalfLife delivers everything from dense walls of distortion to soaring octave-infused fuzz textures, all with the flexibility modern players demand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMassive Distortion with Three Clipping Voices\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the heart of the HalfLife is the Amplitude distortion circuit, inspired by the classic \"White Face\" op-amp distortion design.
