Overdrive, distortion & fuzz effect pedal
The WOPR is one of those pedals that started with an artist/friend who wanted something that sounded a little different and elevated his sound beyond what we normally offer. Oli Brown (Oli Brown and the Dead Collective, formerly of Raveneye) is a long-time friend, so I thought I'd help him out. He originally wanted a Fallout Cloud coupled with the Veteran's silicon Rangemaster-inspired circuitry. This combo sounded absolutely enormous, and Oli loved it and has been using it for years now.
Something drew me back to this circuit, but I wanted to go even further, and so the WOPR was born. Fallout Cloud was scrapped and replaced by a new circuit based on the FC concept, but with more aggression, more sizzle, more everything. With Rangemaster, it leaves a trail of sonic devastation in its wake. The name WOPR is a nod to the AI supercomputer in the film Wargames. And just like in the movie, you can choose between playing Noughts and Crosses/Tic/Tac/Toe or global thermonuclear war.
