Gamechanger Audio Plasma Coil

Gamechanger Audio · pedal

The Gamechanger Audio Plasma COIL is an advanced version of the Gamechanger Plasma Pedal, combining the xenon gas tube electrical discharge distortion technology with a high-voltage magnetic coil Tesla coil modulation effect for a layered, complex distortion and spatial modulation experience. The Plasma COIL adds dimensional, swirling modulation to the unique Plasma electrical discharge distortion, creating a combined texture that no conventional pedal chain can produce. Like the original Plasma, the xenon tube discharge is visible during operation and produces genuinely unique harmonic saturation.
