The Pigtronix ASDR Attack Sustain is a volume and sustain pedal from Pigtronix (New York, US), a respected US boutique manufacturer known for innovative, high-quality effects with unique circuit concepts, delivering touch-sensitive volume control with attack and sustain parameters for creating swells, volume pedal effects, and sustained notes with specific attack and decay behavior. The ASDR provides expressive volume dynamics with envelope parameters.
The Pigtronix Gloamer is an all-analog polyphonic amplitude synthesizer that reshapes the attack and decay of any sound source without sacrificing the original tone's fidelity. Its attack function delivers a pick-triggered volume swell, a smooth, controllable slow-gear effect with timing from extremely fast to very slow, turning guitar into sustaining, synth-pad-like sounds with notes fading in. A powerful optical compressor adds subtle punch or extreme sustain and keeps the swell smooth even at long attack times, while a Volume knob sets the peak level and a master Blend lets players layer clean, uncompressed sound under the effect. With six knobs covering attack, compression, sensitivity, and more, it excels at ambient and atmospheric textures, especially paired with reverb and delay, and works on guitar, bass, or other instruments.
