Drawing on Joe Satriani’s knowledge accumulated from decades of groundbreaking performances, both live and in the studio, VOX unveils a breakthrough in guitar tone – The Satchurator™ distortion pedal. Designed to Satriani’s exact specifications. The Satchurator produces Satriani’s signature tone and adds new features and improvements never before combined in a distortion pedal.
After almost a year of painstaking experimentation and road testing, Satriani and the VOX R&D team discovered the secrets to capturing the ultimate distortion tone in a modern-day pedal. The Satchurator is capable of very high gain levels, but operates more quietly and musically than other modern distortion pedals.
It also preserves the tone and pick-attack of the guitarist plugging into it, regardless of style, from subtly distorted blues tones through classic rock and shred. The result is a professional-quality pedal that recaptures sought-after vintage and modern sounds in a powerful, versatile and extremely musical pedal design.
“The Satchurator is the most musical, most dynamic, multi-function distortion pedal I’ve ever played through” says Satriani. “This little red box is a monster tone generator. Following my specifications without compromise, and adding design innovations I never thought possible, the VOX team has delivered exactly what I need for the stage as well as the studio: a distortion pedal that responds to my touch, and produces a big, natural, harmonically rich tone compatible with any guitar/pedal/amp configuration.”

Controls for Gain, Tone and Volume - ‘More’ gain boost switch enables two footswitchable distortion sounds in one pedal. This gain boost is dramatic when gain knob is set low, and is a subtle solo boost when gain knob is set to maximum.
- ‘Pad’ switch pads down input to allow for high gain pedals (such as modern wahs) placed before Satchurator. Up is pad ‘ON’. Down is pad ‘OFF’ for full Satchurator effect.
- High gain, low noise design provides vintage to modern distortion sounds
- Dynamic circuit is highly responsive to rolling off the guitar’s volume and preserves the guitar’s high end when the volume is rolled off.
- Cream chicken-head knobs for precise positioning and high visibility on dark stages

- Controls: Gain, Tone, Volume, On/Off Switch, ‘More’ Switch, Pad Switch

뭔가.. DS-1 Ultra 같은 소리가 나올지. VOX의 HiGain 앰프시뮬 소리가 나올지. 사뭇 궁금한 아이템입니다.
앰프가 좀 쓸만해야 이런것도 제대로 먹힐텐데... ㅠㅠ 괜찮아 보이네요...
그렇지요. 좋은 악기와 장비도 사용하는 환경에 따라 값을 톡톡히 치르지 못할때도 있지만, 그것이 좋은 소리인지 좋은 톤인지 모르는 이들앞에서 좋은 장비로 연주해 봐야 소용없는 것도 또한 아이러니..^^
설명의 느낌으로는... 페달이라기 보다는 요즘 유행처럼 프리엠프에 가까운 페달이 아닐까 궁금하네요. 모양도 귀엽고, 무엇보다 저잡음의 하이게인이라면 흠.... 언젠가 또 만질날이 다가오고 있는 것 같습니다;;;;^^
언젠가 또 입수해서, 또 모디파이를 한다고 분해할 날이 있겠군요. 개인적으로는 VOX의 치킨해드 노브는 앰프가 아니라면 페달에는 좀 촌스러워보이기도 합니다만..^^
