    Welcome.  It may be me but I can't detect much 'difference' between the different settings of the White Atom.  I know that MP3s are almost bereft of musical information, so do you have a higher bitrate file that I could download and see/hear for myself.  Thanks.

    @Rocker I will have a look in the vaults and see what i can find.

    In the meantime here are some other videos which may help you see the different settings you can achieve with the White Atom.

    Love my White Atom, it does splutter to sustain and cleans up to do a nice overdrive.

    @Ro_S The wah filter is first. Fuzz second.

    The Hammer tone version is old school! Different design too.

    thanks. 

    Other than the fourth control - for tone -  how does the design of the older, hammertone version differ to the newer version, please?

    @Ro_S The fuzz design is very different. Same genre of fuzz sound utilising a similar design concept but the feel and eq is different. (Less upper mid and altered low end response.) Gain control works in a different way.

    Wah circuit range is tuned differently too. In fact, depending on how old your particular Hammerite version of the Double Feature is the wah circuit may be different altogether.

    Oh!  I had no idea.  Thanks.   So there's been three variants of the Double Feature?

    I've got the serial numbers and dates of my Magnetic Effects pedals.  See below.

    Please could tell me which version/variant I have of the Double Feature?   

    Also, how does the wah filter in my particular Double Feature pedal compare to that in my particular Isotope pedal?   Are they different?

    thanks!
    • Buzzkill - #05 , January 2013
    • White Atom - #35 , July 2013
    • Double Feature -  #19 ,  July 2013  (hammertone finish. narrow enclosure. 3 knobs)
    • Solar Bender - #17 ,  November 2013     (hammertone finish, with square 'fat' button) 
    • Isotope - #03
