Electro-Harmonix Tube Zipper
Amazon Price: $194.70 (as of 02/17/2012)
The Tube Zipper is two effects in one, a warm sounding Tube Envelope Follower and a rich Tube Distortion unit. When these two effects are combined into the same circuit they produce entirely unique new and wild effects. The Tube Zipper uses two premium 12AX7EH vacuum tubes. The Drive and Input Gain knobs are for the distortion, the rest of the controls let you tweak the filter. The Mode switch is labelled "Tron" (for a smooth filter sweep) and "Trill" (modulation added to the filter). The Env switch is labelled "Up / Down" and selects the direction of the filter sweep.
