Hungry Robot Pedals Wardenclyffe Deluxe

Hungry Robot Wardenclyffe Deluxe

The Hungry Robot Wardenclyffe Deluxe is a lo-fi ambient modulator. It emulates the magical lo-fi textures of early audio recordings.

It builds on the original pedal, inspired by Nikola Tesla’s Wardenclyffe Tower, which attempts to capture the essence of one of the most mysterious and odd scientists of the century. You can see a bit more about the Tesla Tower and some background on Hungry Robot pedals here.

What’s new in the deluxe?

• Detune for a great chorus
• Vinyl noise simulator, old record player.

• Pop adds, eerr, a popping effect!
