Volume, boost & expression effect pedal
The Kanso POLY EFFECTS pedal, developed under the guidance of talented guitarist Josh Smith, has established itself as a must-have for any musician looking for versatile and refined distortion.
Overview
The POLY EFFECTS Kanso is a smart distortion pedal that offers external control via MIDI and storage for four presets. Despite its minimalist design, it packs a surprising amount of power.
Diverse audio features for unique tones
The Kanso offers a diverse range of overdrive circuits, each paired with specific diodes that shape the pedal’s sonic character. You’ll have access to:
- A transparent clean boost
- A warm, organic overdrive
- A raging distortion
- A fuzz that’s as acidic as you’d like
Precise control and convenience
Its flexible Fknob potentiometer lets you easily navigate through four types of clipping while adjusting the Bias and Character parameters.
- Bias: Modifies the gain texture
- Character: Refines the overall character and output volume
Memory and Easy Integration into Your Setup
The Kanso automatically saves your settings for each of the four modes, allowing for a quick transition between sounds without the need for readjustments. Additionally, its MIDI connectivity makes it easy to integrate into any type of rig, offering remote control of parameters—ideal for live performances.
