Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement. Shown only within a gear class, and only where there's enough evidence to be meaningful.44% — somewhat different

The EarthQuaker Devices Data Corrupter is a modulated monophonic harmonizing phase locked loop pedal that turns your guitar into a wild three voice analog synthesizer. It amplifies your input into a crushing square wave fuzz, then uses a PLL to lock an oscillator to your pitch and multiply, divide and modulate it into stacked sub octaves, octaves and harmonized intervals with square wave modulation. The result ranges from massive synth bass and chiptune leads to glitchy, dissonant, robotic chaos. Monophonic and gloriously aggressive, it suits experimental, synth rock, industrial and adventurous players who want screaming PLL fuzz synth tones, video game textures and unpredictable harmonized madness from a guitar or bass.
The EarthQuaker Devices Hummingbird V2 is a choppy, sawtooth repeat-percussion tremolo modeled on the vintage tremolo circuits found in old Valco and Vox amplifiers. It spans classic 1950s-style shimmering tremolo through a synthy, delay-like chop that breaks the signal into short pings, on up toward near ring-modulation speeds at its fastest settings. Three selectable modes, slow, mid-tempo, and fast, combine with Rate and Depth controls for a wide range of amplitude-modulation textures, and the Rate is expression-pedal controllable for real-time changes. Turned fully counterclockwise it produces no chop at all and works as a simple clean JFET boost. It suits players wanting a versatile, characterful tremolo that ranges from vintage amp-style pulse to glitchy, synth-like chopping.
