NAMM 2009 - Metasonix KV-100 AssBlaster at Big City Music booth

Here is the all new Metasonix KV-100 AssBlaster vacuum tube processor that was shown at the Big City Music NAMM booth. We are feeding a drum pattern from the Jomox XBase999 analog drum machine.

The KV-100 contains the basic preamp stage of the discontinued Metasonix TM-7 Scrotum Smasher, driving the waveshaping (pulser) and ring modulation functions of the discontinued TM-1 (minus the ring-modulator carrier oscillator). These two sections drive a VCO which was derived from the discontinued Metasonix TM-3.
