“I’m so proud to have designed this with Rocktron and to make a distortion pedal that will give you the sustain to make your leads sing, and also give you the clarity to cut though the band or mix.”  Gary Hoey Rocktron has producued many pedals in its day, but nothing quite like Gary’s Intimidator.  From his choice of a chamo look, to the internal components that deliver the goods, this pedal belongs on your pedalboard. Control knobs include LEVEL, which controls the ouput volume, BASS to control the bass level and TREBLE to control the treble level settings.  GAIN controls the amount of gain and PUNISH controls the distortion waveform symmetry and definition. The footswitch controls On/Off status (indicated by the LED).Gary writes that “the Intimidator is a very powerful distortion, so start with the gain and level below half way and bring up to taste.  The treble control is “bright” depending on the amp you use.  If you use a clean amp then you will add more gain, and less treble, and for a high gain amp you will need less gain.” Explaining the PUNISH control, Gary states, “the PUNISH control can add a nice mid range thickness and round out the sound.  Make sure you bend down and listen to what’s coming out of the speaker to hear what your audience is hearing.  Also try some of my setting that I’ve included in this manual.” The included instruction manual shows various settings such as “Blues Low Gain Amp”, “Metal Rules High Gain Amp”, “Gary Hoey Favorite Main Lead” and more. The Gary Hoey Intimidator can be powered with a 9V Alkaline battery.  To save on batteries, The Intimidator Distortion pedal can alos be used with the Rocktron DC OnTap Universal Power Supply (sold separately).  The Rocktron DC OnTap provides constant flow of power to the pedal, unlike a battery that can degrade over time.  The Rocktron DC OnTap can also power up to 20 pedals.

KORN
Rocks With Rocktron Tremolo

Surfs up for KORN, one of the heaviest of the metal
bands.  November’s Guitar Shop Magazine details catching up with the band during
their tracking for their new album.  Guitarist Head’s rig is stompbox setup, as
is shown, and it includes Rocktron’s notorious Surf Tremolo pedal.  KORN Rocks
With Rocktron Tremolo Good choice, Head!
Earth Crisis’ Scott
Crouse and Erick Edwards

Check out Earth Crisis and their new CD titled “Breed The
Killers.”

One press review for Earth Crisis stated, “the fivesome’s
sheer musical fury has visibly spawned or inspired numerous younger bands in extreme
hardcore.” Guitarists Scott Crouse and Erick Edwards are currently Rocktron
endorsers, using Rocktron gear for their powerful sound.
Tristan
Grigsby and Project:Storm 

Guitarist Tristan Grigsby is tearing up the hard rock/metal scene
with his latest group, Project:Storm and their new CD titled “The Reckoning”.

Tristan’s bio proclaims that his “guitar format
and attack provide and aggressive punch that delivers.” As Tristan states,
“It’s a major part of the music. The songs are built on the sound, which I hear
in my head first, then translate to a strong sound in mold of a Tony MacAlpine.”
We’re proud to see Tristan Grigsby as a Rocktron endorser.
Rob Johnson and
Magnitude 9

Rob Johnson, guitarist for progressive
metal band Magnitude 9 was “looking for great sounding rack gear.” He ended up a
Rocktron endorser. The Magnitude 9 CD , titled “Chaos To Control”,

has already been released in Japan, (where Rob
is extremely hot), and in Europe. He has several solo CDs released on Apollon/Bandai
Records. “I recently played a VooDu Valve while in Japan and I loved it!” said
Rob. Now he owns one which he purchased himself.
Limp Noise Needs HUSH

April’s Guitar Magazine details Limp Bizkit’s Wes
Borland’s rig. Pointing out that Borland’s rig is “relatively simple”
and that he “shies away from rack effects”, Guitar shows that Borland needs
Rocktron’s rack mount HUSH noise reduction to “help tame the noise” passing
through his amp’s effects loop. For nearly 16 years, players have chosen
Rocktron’s HUSH noise reduction to eliminate noise problems in their rigs. Is it time
for you to follow Borland’s example?
Meredith Brooks Chooses
Rocktron

Guitar Shop Magazine from September, 1998, reports that
Meredith Brooks, “a bona-fide picker who cut all the guitar parts on her
platinum-selling debut album, “Blurring The Edges” is a Rocktron user. 
Detailing her “hi-tech” rig, Guitar Shop notes her choice of Rocktron’s
Replifex effects processor.  Hey, nice to see Rocktron isn’t exclusively for the
male sex.
Cannibal Corpse
Quiets With HUSH

Long a mainstay with metal bands,
Rocktron’s HUSH noise reduction shows up in Pat O’Brien’s rig for Cannibal
Corpse.  Guitar Shop Magazine reports in their November issue that the death metal
guitarist is using a HUSH to chill his noisy setup.  The group’s new Metal Blade
CD is titled “Gallery of Suicide”. We don’t make the music, we just make
the gear.
Slayer Back In
Press With Rocktron

Rigs for Slayer guitarists Kerry King and Jeff Hanneman are
displayed in November’s Guitar Shop Magazine.  Combining vintage tube amps with
signal processing, these boys are using plenty of Rocktron in their rigs.  Their new
album is titled “Diabolus In Musica”.  Guitar Shop refers to their rigs as
containing “beefy rack effects”.  We’ll take that as a
compliment.  However, rack isn’t the only Rocktron gear used by the band. 
Kerry King points out in an interview in Shop that “we’ve got other stuff, like
the HUSH, obviously.  We need that.”  Kerry also points out that Jeff
“used a Surf Tremolo on this new record.”  Those Rocktron Surf Tremolos are
getting around.
Brett Scallions: Rocktron
Endorser

Guitarist/Vocalist Brett Scallions of the band FUEL
recently landed a Rocktron artist endorsement.  His touring rig now features the
Rocktron Replifex multi-effect unit and the
Rocktron All Access MIDI foot controller.
     Fuel’s new CD, entitled “Sunburn”, is currently
holding steady around #20 on many national radio charts with the hit single “Shimmer”. 
The rest of this CD is absolutely rockin’ and is definitely worth picking up!  Check
out sound clips on Fuel’s Web site.     
Rocktron
Endorser Gary Hoey and his Prophesy

Gary Hoey a Rocktron endorser for nearly a decade, Is now finishing his new studio
release and a new HO! HO! HOEY III CD both to be released this fall. “I’ve been
recording with the new PROPHESY pre-amp it just sounds amazing. I love how easy it is to
get great tone, with cool effects, straight to tape. When inspiration hits the PROPHESY
delivers killer tone fast”.
Max Cavalera and
Soulfly

Rocktron’s Intellifex and HUSH units are in place right now
with Rocktron endorser, Max Cavalera. Currently with Soulfly, and previously with
Sepultura, Cavalera is one rare player with one monstrously heavy sound. We know Max is
looking to pick up some more Rocktron gear soon, and we wish him well on tour.
Dave Mustaine Uses
Rocktron For Powerful Guitar Tone

EQ Magazine’s May 1999 issue features Rocktron endorser Dave
Mustaine of Megadeth in a cover story. EQ’s “Guitar Recording Special”
looks at how players “handle their six-strings” in a project studio environment.
Working with his longtime producer, Dann Huff, Mustaine has been “holed up at Emerald
Sound Studios in Nashville, creating the follow-up to Megadeth’s CD, “Cryptic
Writings.” According to the EQ article Mustaine is using his Rocktron Piranha preamp
and his Rocktron Intellifex in the studio. Mustaine says, “when we came in this time,
I started using a Piranha (preamp) from Rocktron. Dann really liked that. I know that I
want the guitars to sound powerful, but I don’t want them to be overbearing.” EQ
goes on to report that “the main guitars…are Dave’s rack – his
Piranha. It’s easy, we don’t have to worry about anything. We just plug in, put
a SM57 on it, go to tape, and we’re done.”
Jaye Foucher and
her CD “Infectious Licks”

A good friend of Gary Hoey, guitarist Jaye Foucher has endorsed
Rocktron. Rave reviews are in for her CD, “Infectious Licks”. Well known at the
NAMM Shows, and shaking things up internationally, Jaye is a tremendous talent. She uses
Rocktron’s VooDu Valve preamp in her rig. One review called her CD “…a
tasteful blend of metal, progressive, funk and blues.” Jaye publishes a guitar
newsletter along with seven other guitarists, called Guitarpalooza.
Guitar Guru
Angelo Janotti

Guitar guru Angelo Janotti tells us he is “excited about
endorsing Rocktron.” Originally from the Orlando area, Janotti says he has “been
a fan of Rocktron gear for a long time.” His CD titled
“eclecticacousticelectric” has had rave reviews. Janotti’s work includes
sessions with the Backstreet Boys, the 69 Boyz, and more and he is a featured columnist
for Buzz magazine. One review of his new CD described it as “phenomenal” and
says, “if you like the Steve Vai, Joe Satriani style, check this one out.”
Cantrell
Can’t Do Without Rocktron

Alice In Chains guitarist, Jerry Cantrell has recently moved on
with his new band and new sound, creating his first solo CD called Boggy Depot. As
reported in the March issue of Guitar Magazine, Cantrell’s rig includes two
of Rocktron’s RSP Intelliverbs. Based on Rocktron’s Intellifex, the Intelliverbs
provide Cantrell with reverbs, delays, and most of his effects arsenal which he used on
“his recent sojourn with the Jerry Cantrell Band.”
Judas Priest Still
Rockin’ With Rocktron

Seems like nearly everyone in the November Guitar Shop
Magazine is a Rocktron user.  Glen Tipton and K.K. Downing point out that
“basically we’re using a lot of MIDI-programmable stuff now.  Rocktron
preamps and Rocktron’s Intellifex” are two of the items in use right now. 
Tipton says “It’s more or less what I used for Juggulator.  K.K. uses more
or less the same thing.  He uses Rocktron’s Piranha preamp.  Other than
that, our live rigs are almost identical.”   K.K. states that “for the
most part, I’m just basically using the Rocktron stuff.  I find that it’s
pretty good gear.  The only thing I really need on the orad today is a good preamp
and I’m using the Rocktron Piranha, and the only effects unit I’m using is the
Rocktron Replifex unit, which is a very comprehensive unit.  It’s got just about
everything – it’s got allthe classic sounding stuff, it’s even got a rotary
speaker in there, flangers, phasers, and stuff we used to use back in the ‘70s. 
You can replicate any of those sounds with this one effects unit.  In addition to
that, you’ve got delay, chorus, compression, noise reduction, and just about anything
that you could want, really.”  Wow, K.K. knows his gear!
Slayer Still Rocking With
Rocktron

    Slayer Guitarist and Rocktron
Endorser Kerry King was featured in the June 98 issue of Guitar Player. 
The article, entitled “Raw Power”, covers Slayer’s formula for ferocious
guitar tracks…  Of course, their gear is covered in great detail, and where there’s
great guitar tones, there’s Rocktron gear. 
     Kerry’s rack is detailed in the article (see picture to the
left).  In it you’ll find the Rocktron HUSH IICX noise reduction unit, the Rocktron
Patch Mate loop switcher and the Rocktron VooDu Valve DSP preamp with effects.  Kerry
also uses the Rocktron All Access MIDI foot
controller for switching everything in his setup.
    Check out Slayer’s new release on American  entitled “Diabolus
In Musica”.  Thanks to the guys for kindly mentioning Rocktron in the Thank
You section of the liner notes!
Kat Dyson and Rocktron

  Long time Rocktron artist endorser Kat Dyson
was just recently awarded a full Rocktron endorsement!  Kat has spent the last 2
years touring with The Artist Formerly Known As Prince. 
Currently, Kat is performing 5 nights a week as the house guitarist of the Sheila E.
Band on FOX Television’s

all new late night show with Magic Johnson,
called “The Magic Hour”.   Kat is now using the New Rocktron Taboo Twin DSP combo amplifier as her main rig on the
show!
Kat also appears (see picture above) in the July 1998 issue of Guitar Player
where she is interviewed for a piece called “Side Orders, Session Guitarists Talk
About Life in the Trenches”. 
     Kat states in the interview; “The more
versatile you can be—the more sounds you can create with the gear you have—the
better position you’re in to say, ‘I can do that’. … After experimenting with lots and
lots of different setups, I now plug a Rocktron Chameleon
DSP preamp into a Rocktron Velocity 120 power amp,
and, with a two space rack and a pair of Rocktron SE112
speakers, I can pretty much get any sound I need”.
     Rocktron also recently shipped Kat a new Rocktron Jam Box for her song learning needs, and the new
Rocktron Taboo Artist floor preamp with effects
for quick gigs.
 
Brian May

The July 1998 issue of the U.K.’s Guitarist magazine
features an unbelievable interview/article on rock guitar legend, Brian May. 
Brian’s rack is detailed in the article and of course, includes his favorite multi-effect
unit, the Rocktron Intellifex.   Also in
pictured in Brian’s setup is the Rocktron Patch Mate and the Rocktron MIDI Mate foot
controller.

Rocktron Product Reviews – BANSHEE AMPLIFIED TALKBOX from Guitar Shop Magazine

RocktronBanshee Amplified Talkbox
Aural Examsfrom Guitar Shop Magazine,
July 1997, by Jeff Vanda

Just think of the talkbox’s incredible legacy: Jeff Beck’s “She’s A Woman,” Peter Frampton’s hit “Show Me The Way,” Joe Walsh on “Rocky Mountain Way,” Joe Perry in “Sweet Emotion,” plus various tracks by Steely Dan (“Haitian Divorce”), and Bon Jovi (“Livin’ On A Prayer”). After its ’70s heyday, the effect largely disappeared, but today, with the retro-revival bringing back every effect known to mankind, the return of the fuzzy, throaty talkbox is a reality. Rocktron has taken it upon itself to be the new harbinger of voice-box mania with their Banshee pedal.

The concept behind the talkbox is so elegantly simple, it’s ridiculous. Picture being able to stick your amp’s speaker into your mouth and then manipulate the tone with all sorts of cheek and jaw movements (when they say that talkboxes have a “throaty” sound, they ain’t kidding). Essentially, a talkbox has a horn driver in its guts that shoots that fuzzed-out “talkbox” sound up a plastic tube, which the player has taped next to a microphone on a stand. Then, as you make all sorts of weird sounds out of the speaker noises in your mouth, the mic picks up the talkbox sounds and it comes out of the PA. Better yet, the effect of basically having a speaker in your skull makes one’s head shake like you’re on the bridge of the Enterprise and the Klingons have suddenly attacked. Clearly, the talkbox is a weird, but brilliant idea.

Rocktron goes one step further by improving on the setup problems of old boxes. In ye olde days, the unit had to go between an amp head and speaker cabinet, creating all sorts of A/B cabling headaches. But, like the ancient Electro-Harmonix Deluxe Golden Throat, the Banshee gets hooked up just like a regular stompbox between your guitar and amp. Just plug in as usual and then run the tube up to your microphone. Even cooler is that you could even use it as a tiny 5-watt amp head, since there’s an 8-ohm speaker-out jack that will run a small cabinet. Use it for practicing or recording (but don’t run it into another amp or effects loop, since there is real speaker-level voltage here and it could do internal damage, just as any amp would). The Banshee may look tiny, but it’s still a real amp, which may account for its sturdy price tag. But I think that amount is more than made up for by its super-convenient setup. By the way, it’s also encased in a heavy-duty metal shell, which will make it more than durable enough for roadwork. Weighs a ton, too.

How does it sound? In a word, great. I hooked it up using a Crate amp for the guitar and a small PA for the microphone. Powered by a 9-volt adaptor, the Banshee worked perfectly, creating that classic, nasty fuzz that is steeped in rich midrange flavors. The Banshee has three knobs on it (Gain, Tone, Output), but their effect is rather modest. Really, once you step on the heavy-duty footswitch, the unit is simply on and there’s not too much you can do to alter it other than through mouth movement on the tube. Fortunately, the sound is incredibly punchy, and you’ll have a blast experimenting with the new “oral” effects. Use it for background textures, solos, or “talk” to your audiences, like Frampton did on the live version of “Do You Feel Like We Do.” Believe me, after you play around with the Banshee for a while, your wah-wah pedal will start to look like a rusty old Model T. Plus, can a wah make your teeth rattle like you’ve got a 4×12 cab in your mouth? I think not.

Quck Access Menu

Long the professional standard in MIDI Controllers, Rocktron introduces the newest in a long line of MIDI products that have been used on more pro tours than any other controllers. The Rocktron MIDI Raider has evolved from the “All Access” units and the earlier Rocktron/Bradshaw systems.

The MIDI Raider as a stand-alone foot controller can be completely customized for your gear requirements. It can be set up to your specs in three operating modes: Bank Mode, Song Mode and Remote Mode.

The Bank Mode has 120 presets and each instant switch can be set up global or per preset. Customize set-up as either 24 banks of 5 presets with 10 “instant” switches (effect on/off); or 12 banks of 10 presets with 5 instant switches (effect on/off); or 8 banks of 15 presets with no instant switches set up. All 15 access switches can also be set up to “instant”, operating as a huge instant access “pedal board”.
Song Mode allows up to 150 songs to be stored with 15 presets per song. The 10 sets allow placement of 50 songs per set.

Remote mode automatically programs the footswitch to match Rocktron remote-compatible units. Titles and individual switch functions will automatically program and continuously update themselves on both the rack unit and the MIDI Raider foot controller. Functions like tap delay, mute, boost and effects on/off instantly appear when connected to a Rocktron remote jack without any programming.
Other MIDI Raider features include 18 metal Switches for positive tactile feel and long life; large 16 character fluorescent display for custom titles and easy programming and clear visual on any stage; LED indicators that light for every switch at all times as an on/off status indicator and a dimly lit preset number (all 18 switches) so stage blackouts will not hinder pedal operations; seven pin MIDI Out jack to allow phantom powering from your rack; 120 presets which can include over 36 MIDI commands per preset to be transmitted amongst the 16 MIDI channels including “toggling” control change commands; MIDI filtering, dump/load, SysEx, select 0-127 or 1-128 transmit operation; and the fast, easy copy function allows you to copy any preset, bank, song, or set to another respectfully.
For more in-depth information on the MIDI Raider, see the instruction manual in the SUPPORT section of this website.

Looking for something truly unique for bass? Want to try something different for guitar?

The Heart Attack Dynamic Filter produces a harmonic phase shifting effect that sweeps the frequency spectrum from high to low.

The dynamic filter effect is triggered by pick attack. The harder you pick the string, the louder the effect. The Sensitivity control allows for frequency adjustment of the effect. Lower settings provide for a lush, smooth feel – ideal for locking in with a drummer and providing solid low-end. Higher settings provide amore expressive effect that is ideally suited for lead breaks. Play around with it and you will find that there are a lot of possibilities as the effects volume and sound is mainly produced by your pick attack!

We have also included “distortion” to give you a little more “grit” when playing. The easy access battery compartment will make changing batteries during a gig a breeze and the Heart Attack is housed in Rocktron’s heavy duty chassis.

The Heart Attack can be placed in the signal chain before or after a distortion, but usually sounds better when placed after. If using multiple pedals such as delays and other modulation effects, try the Heart Attack in different parts of the signal chain until you find the sound you personally prefer.

Buy the Heart Attack from an online dealer. Select below to purchase.

Additional tunings for 7-String Guitar, 5-String and 6-String bass are included. Tunings for other instruments such as dobro, mandolin family, banjo, pedal steel, classical instruments and other string instruments (Bouzouki, Banduria, Dulcimer, Requinto, etc) are also included.STANDARD TUNING MODEIn Standard Tuning Mode (this is the default tuning mode when you turn on the VersaTune) the LEDs on the front panel will indicate the following:GREEN LED – Center LED with the (0 – zero) above the LED will indicate that the note being played is “IN TUNE”RED LEDs – To the left of the GREEN center LED will indicate that note being played is “FLAT”. The numbers shown on the front panel -10, -20, -30, – 40 indicate by how many “CENTS” the note being played is off from being IN TUNE.RED LEDs – To the right of the GREEN center LED will indicate that the note being played is “SHARP” from being IN TUNE. The numbers on the front panel +10, +20, +30, +40 indicate by how many “CENTS” the note being played is off from being IN TUNE.CENTS – The Cent is a logarithmic unit of measure used to musical intervals. Twelve-tone equal temperament divides an octave into 12 semi tones of 100 cents each. Cents are used to measure extremely small finite intervals or to compare the sizes of comparable intervals in different tuning systems. Usually the interval of once cent is to small to be heard between successive notes.PRECISION TUNING MODEPrecision Tuning Mode allows you to “FINE” tune your instrument. This function increases the sensitivity of the VersaTune to allow for ultra fine tuning. In Precision Tuning Mode, the LEDs are reversed in color. Now the IN TUNE LED will be RED and the Flat and Sharp LEDs will be GREEN. This mode is quite sensitive and very slightly movements of the tuning machines on your instrument is necessary.RED LED – Center LED with the (0 – zero) above the LED will indicate that the note being played is “IN TUNE”GREEN LEDs – To the left of the RED center LED will indicate that note being played is “FLAT”. The numbers shown on the front panel -1, -2, -3, – 4 indicate by how many “CENTS” the note being played is off from being IN TUNE.GREEN LEDs – To the right of the RED center LED will indicate that the note being played is “SHARP” from being IN TUNE. The numbers on the front panel +1, +2, +3, +4 indicate by how many “CENTS” the note being played is off from being IN TUNE.STROBE TUNING MODEThe STROBE function offers another alternative for tuning with the VersaTune.Plug the guitar/bass into the tuner and press the “STROBE” button. At this point the RED LEDs will appear to move from right to left. Play a note on your guitar. Pluck your E string, if needed, adjust your tuning machine on your instrument until the letter “E” appears in the NOTE Display window. If your note is flat – the RED LEDs will appear to be moving from right to left, showing you that the note being played is flat. The faster the LEDs move right to left, the more flat the tuning is. Tune your string up. During this process the speed of the movement of the LEDs will appear to slow down as you approach being IN TUNE. When the LEDs don’t appear to be moving, then the note is IN TUNE. If your note is sharp – the RED LEDs will appear to be moving from left to right, showing you that the note being played is sharp. The faster the LEDs move from left to right, the more sharp the tuning is. Tune your string down. During this process the speed of the movement of the LEDs will appear to slow down as you approach being IN TUNE. When the LEDs don’t appear to be moving, then the note is IN TUNE.MutingThe VersaTune is sensitive, so it is not necessary to strike your string very hard. Standard string attack will work. Additionally, if you are in a loud environment try using harmonics to tune your instrument. Lightly touch the string over the 12th fret of your instrument and pick the string with normal pick attack. This will create a harmonic. It will work on all strings. The MUTED Output is ideal for tuning in live situations. This allows you to tune without everyone in the audience hearing you tune. Additionally, this will mute the signal going to your amplifier which will help you keep down noise generated if you are using a high gain amplifier.
