Description

This is the best auto-wah envelope filter ever made, hands down. They are the fourth dimension of wah wah, or wha wha as sometimes referred to. The same unit that every single effect processor tries to emulate, always with mediocrity. This is an original early 1970’s version used by many greats like Bootsy Collins, Stevie Wonder, Jerry Garcia, Frank Zappa, and on and on. These were made in the USA when that meant quality, hi standards and expensive components. They are built like a tank. They were designed by the great engineer Mike Biegle and hand built by the original Musitronics crew. Several years ago this one was serviced and modified by Richard Ligenberg who specializes in Mu-Tron. This work was done for the purpose of eliminating the need for the bulky PS-1 power supply and to give it a true bypass. He also calibrated it to the original specs. The modifications include a power cord for use with your pedal board. The cord/cable is designed for a VooDoo Labs Pedal Power 2 (or the like) and works with two isolated 9V outputs. It can also be used with 2-9 volt batteries. The knobs are aftermarket; however I do have 2 of the original black knobs that will be included. If you want funky funk, funkier than phuck, that will blow your funking head off, then you have come to the right place. The Musitronics Mu-Tron III's performance is based on the electrical performance of its photo-couplers, which give the device its unique feel. Besides providing inverted vowel trajectory (‘staccato snap’), Mu-tron III also functions as an automatic ‘wah’ pedal.” Mu-tron III translates the envelope or “volume picture” of every note automatically… into an easily-controlled, articulated, vowel-like sound – as fast or slow as you play. Use Mu-tron III to create a variety of synthesizer sounds through most electrified instruments – guitar, keyboards, drums, flute, saxophone, brasses, bass, mandolin… even microphone. The sharper your attack and the more percussive your instrument, the wilder your sounds. The Mu-Tron III also has other components, such as: Gold-plated stereo 1/4" jacks, 1% metal-film resistors, Surface mount technology, Heavy-gage steel bottom with baked-on industrial enamel finish, and Heavy-gage aluminum front panel.These were outfitted with the JRC 4558 chip that was later made famous in the early Ibanez Tube Screamers, so the boost on these is nice and crunchy.Controls:Mode (LP/BP/LP) selects the type of filter: Lowpass, Bandpass, HighpassPeak Controls volume of the cutoff frequencyGain adjusts the filter’s sensitivity to the signal of your instrumentRange (Low/High) selects the frequency range covered by the filter envelopeDown/Up selects the direction of the filter sweep: down or upwardsPower (Off/On) switches the power on or offSpecifications:Gain: variable from 0.1 to 40, when driven from a low impedance sourceInput Impedance: 1 megohm at lowest setting of GAIN control, variable to 3.3K ohms at maximum gain settingOutput Impedance: 600 ohmsMinimum Input Signal For Full Mu-Tron Effect: 1.5 mV from 600 ohm sourceMaximum Undistorted Output Signal: 3.6 volts RMSThese are obviously great for guitars, however they are also excellent for keyboards, bass, clavs, marimbas, harmonica,  hell, I have even used it on a mic’d up saxophone that came out sounding like a title wave!  If you don’t own one of these, then, you are not yet serious about the wah-wah envelope experience. Join the club and you will, at long last, qualify as a serious, get down mofo.Shipping in the lower 48 USA is free and included.Worldwide shipping (anywhere other than the lower 48 states USA) is $150 or less depending on your location. THIS PRICE WILL MOST LIKEY BE MUCH LOWER DEPENDING ON WHERE YOU ARE. Overseas buyers just need to pay the up front amount upon purchase and I will refund you any difference after your item ships. I will only charge you actual shipping charges and not for packing, handling, or boxes. I do this with everyone so you do not need to request it. I will also include an amount that I would have spent on domestic shipping as a credit as well. So, shipping rebate will be; difference in the Shipping rate PLUS a credit. I will provide a shipping receipt upon request.
