Origin Effects unveil the RevivalTREM Bias Tremolo<\/h3>\n

Buckinghamshire, UK (16 January 2020)<\/strong> \u2013 Origin Effects have introduced the RevivalTREM Bias Tremolo, the first ever pedal to faithfully recreate the sound, feel and unique dynamic properties of the power tube bias tremolo effect built into early 1960s amps such as the Brown Fender Deluxe.<\/p>\n

In contrast to the optical and VCA-based tremolo circuits found in the vast majority of pedals and amps, true bias tremolo is generated by modulating the bias voltage supplied to the power tubes. The resulting effect is not only gorgeously smooth and hypnotic, but also highly musical and responsive to playing dynamics.<\/p>\n

As power amp gain increases, loud notes and chords are able to rise above the effects of bias modulation. Digging in harder allows you to \u201cplay over\u201d the tremolo effect, before letting it fade back in as the note dies away or you soften your pick attack. As addictive as it is inspiring, it\u2019s an effect that every guitarist has to experience, though be warned \u2013 it will make standard, always-on tremolos sound one-dimensional and heavy-handed in comparison!<\/p>\n

The RevivalTREM is more than just a tremolo pedal, however. Based on the groundbreaking technology found in the Origin RevivalDRIVE, it houses a complete valve-amp style signal path recreated in all-analogue electronics. It\u2019s voiced to deliver a wide range of Deluxe-style valve amp tones with stunning authenticity, from gritty cleans through chewy Brownface break-up to growling Tweed-style distortion, all available with or without the independently switchable bias tremolo effect.<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause the RevivalDRIVE recreates the interaction of a valve amp\u2019s entire output stage, we knew that we could use the same platform to create a true bias tremolo,\u201d explains Origin Effects founder Simon Keats. \u201cWe\u2019re lucky enough to have a stunning 1962 Deluxe here in our listening room, and it became the inspiration behind the RevivalTREM. We designed the pedal to recreate not just the amp tones and the tremolo effect found in these vintage combos but also the way the two interact, which is where the real magic of bias tremolo lies.\u201d<\/p>\n

While the RevivalTREM might be firmly rooted in real valve amp circuit behaviour, it also boasts a range of modern features, including switchable wave shapes and tap tempo with selectable rhythmic subdivisions. The external footswitch input, which enables remote tap tempo and tremolo on\/off, is also directly compatible with effects switching systems like the Boss ES series. Meanwhile, the powerful Post-Drive EQ section, as seen on the RevivalDRIVE Compact, tailors the output of the pedal to suit the voicing of the amp you\u2019re plugging into, as well as flat-response power amps, mixers and recording interfaces.<\/p>\n

Yet another game-changer from Origin Effects, the RevivalTREM is available to pre-order now from dealers<\/a> worldwide and direct from www.origineffects.com.<\/a><\/p>\n
