The Encounter Isn’t Just a Pedal — It’s a Portal

Category: Hardware / Design Philosophy / Signal Summoning

Most pedals are built to fit in.
The Encounter was built to stand way the hell out.

It started as a sound in our heads — a glitching, blooming, warping void tone that couldn’t be found anywhere. No fuzz could hit it. No delay could stretch it. Nothing on the market misbehaved the right way. So we started building.

What came out wasn’t just another “ambient fuzz” or “textural delay.” It was something else.
Something with teeth.
Something that didn’t always obey.

The Encounter does weird things to your signal chain:

• It pulses when it shouldn’t.
• It blooms when it should die.
• It sounds different depending on your pickups, your amp, and your mood.

It was never meant to be transparent.
It was meant to challenge you.
It wants to rewrite your riffs. Twist your feedback loops. Make your solo sound like it’s coming through a haunted CRT.

This is a pedal for the ones who don’t want a clean boost.
It’s a broken transmission box, a reverse gravity echo, a tone experiment that escaped the lab.

Plug in.
Turn the knobs like you mean it.
And don’t expect it to behave.
