POWERSPEDAL “POWERSMIRA - Mighty Rats“ (Distortion Guitar Effect Pedal)
The “POWERSMIRA - Mighty Rats” effect pedal is the ultimate tribute to 40+ years of RAT evolution and its impact on guitar’s sound.
This pedal is more than just a distortion box, it is the secret weapon for real musicians who think of 60's garage rock, early punk or simply the bands that changed the sound of rock 'n' roll. Artists from every genre have used this iconic and unassuming black box to create their tones, including the Eagles, Jeff Beck, Nirvana, Metallica, Pink Floyd, REM and Radiohead.
The POWERSMIRA - Mighty Rats offers intuitive control over the core aspects of your tone
The DISTORT. knob adjusts the gain or the amount of distortion applied to your signal. Turning it up increases the saturation, producing more aggressive, overdriven tones, while lowering it gives a cleaner, less distorted sound. The VOLUME knob controls the overall output of the pedal, allowing you to adjust the loudness to match your desired level without affecting the tone. The FILTER knob acting as a low-pass filter, this control allows you to shape the tonal brightness of the effect. Depending on the position, more high frequencies are let through, which brightens the sound, or higher frequencies are attenuated, which results in a darker sound.
The simplicity of these controls makes the PackRat easy to dial in for a wide range of awesome distortion tones.
The toggle switch toggles between the ANGRY and FAT versions. As you change the mode, the analog circuitry is rewired between different values of resistors, capacitors, diodes, and op-amps.
The POWERSMIRA - Mighty Rats modes
ANGRY
The ANGRY mode highlights its key characteristics, emphasizing hard-clipping, scooped mid-range frequencies and a brighter tone, so you’ll have no trouble being heard through the mix. Since the circuit was designed around the musical distortion, it retains these qualities without sounding harsh.
FAT
The FAT mode use of germanium clipping diodes is indeed a key factor in producing its signature tone. These diodes give it a warmer, more vintage sound that balances well between the aggression of distortion and the richness of fuzz. It's an iconic choice for guitarists who appreciate both tonal clarity and warmth.
