Noodles Pedal by Ground Control Audio
The Noodles was released in late 2019 and is considered a significant step forward for Ground Control. It boasts a digitally-controlled, 100% solid-state analog signal routing system that does not use any mechanical or breaking parts beyond the foot switches. This means that the pedal is a reliable addition to any board without the risk of failing during critical moments.

It features three parallel active EQ channels for the bass, mids, and treble bands. Each channel offers three cherry-picked filter settings for a total of 64 tonal combinations at the touch of a button (or three). It also has its own gain control for up to 30dB. When enabled, the output of all three channels is mixed in equal parts with the dry input signal through a summing amplifier stage.
The Noodles is a popular tool for math rock artists such as Yvette Young of Covet. It is perfect for players who want a simple, no-fuss, tone-shaping tool that works right out of the box. It allows them to sweeten their tone without having to mess with knobs or faders and micromanage settings for hours.
Bypass type: Buffered dry signal always on, all digitally-controlled solid-state analog signal routing.

*Do not power with anything other than a center-negative 9VDC power supply. This pedal uses circuitry to double up the 9VDC power supply and you do not want to feed it any more. This kills the pedal and will void the warranty. You will be charged for repairs.
