LICHTLAERM AUDIO "Total Distortion Worship MKII"
After the limited run of the Total Distortion Worship sold out in no time, Lichtlaerm Audio worked on the production version (the MKII) for almost a year... and it’s finally here!
They added more gain, expanded the low-end range and replaced the boost with a simplified version of their King in Yellow overdrive. On top of that, they added a focus knob that gives you full control over the mid range, and you can take it all the way into nasty chainsaw territory.
The Total Distortion Worship MkII: It’s more extreme because more is more!
Sonic Excess In Its Purest Form
The Total Distortion Worship is a collaboration between Cult FX & Lichtlaerm Audio and the result of an obsessive tone chasing journey in search of the ultimate Extreme Metal distortion.
It features:
- A completely unique distortion circuit
The TDW forges a nasty, yet versatile distortion with a highly distinctive character. whether you're playing crushing doom, vicious black metal or anything in between - the TDW will deliver!
- Built-in overdrive
The integrated, foot-switchable overdrive circuit is based on the King in Yellow and comes with an additional internal trim pot for gain control.
- Active 5 band EQ
Our fader EQ offers +/- 12db range per band for extensive tone shaping. We placed it after the distortion circuit for maximum impact.
- Focus knob for mid range
Want even more control over your mid range? As part of the overdrive, the focus knob gives you full access over the most important frequency range of your tone! From modern bite to borderline chainsaw aggression, you’re 100% covered.
- Cut knob for tightness control
A Lichtlaerm Audio staple is the cut knob, which gives you full control over the structure and tightness of your distortion. Blend to taste from massive sludgy drone, all the way to razor sharp attack with unmatched string separation, down to the lowest of tunings.
- Studio grade noise gate
The integrated noise gate delivers the same studio grade performance as the legendary lichtlaerm The Key and The Gate. It is fully adjustable to work in perfect symbiosis with any level of sonic terror you create with the TDW.
- Made in Germany
The TDW is made to extremely high quality standards by Lichtlaerm Audio in Berlin, Germany.
- Two enclosure designs
To celebrate the this collaboration, we decided to offer the new Total Distortion Worship in two distinct color schemes: Classic Lichtlaerm black & gold and Cult FX's exclusive black, silver & red.
