Walrus Audio goes back to basics with the Fundamental Series Distortion! This rock-solid dirt box forgoes the fancy finishes and wild stompbox experiments that have made Walrus Audio one of the biggest names in the modern pedal realm, instead opting for a no-nonsense approach that hones in on three qualities above all: pro-level tone, ease of use, and an easily accessible price point. But while the Fundamental Distortion’s Gain, Tone, and Volume sliders allow you to dial in everything from subtle grit to all-out, hard-clipped saturation, it wouldn’t be a Walrus Audio creation without some sonic twist ? in this case, the 3-position mode switch. This control drastically alters the Fundamental Distortion’s clipping style and voice, essentially packing the power of three distinct distortion units into a single pedalboard-friendly box.
