The TC Electronic Dark Matter Distortion Pedal aims to give you that powerful, super-musical roar of an early plexi - a sound that will satisfy even the pickiest players out there. We are confident we have achieved just that, and this is one of those pedals you have to try to believe what it can actually do for your distorted sounds.
From cleans with an attitude and warm bluesy tones to a crunch with grit for days and fully saturated lead sounds full of harmonics and overtones, it’s all here in spades and instantly available by riding your guitar’s volume knob. Dark Matter distortion is built from the highest-grade components, features an easy-access battery hatch and has a conveniently small footprint.
Dark Matter Distortion defines instant gratification and will become the go-to pedal on your board for distortion. Initially, you simply plug it in and start rocking, but its many great sounds will have you playing with it for years to come. From bluesy crunch to full-on vintage cranked, but always very musical distortion sounds, this pedal was designed for the guitarists that like things a bit (or very) dirty. Featuring an all-analog circuit, dual-band tone controls, level and drive knobs and a voicing switch to tweak the bass response, you are set from creamy leads over riff-heavy stadium rock to modern, angst-ridden grunge.
Dark Matter Distortion has a very open character, no matter if you use it as a slight ‘AC/DC-ish’ crunch or as a full-blown, fire-breathing dragon, this pedal will always let your playing shine through. All Dark Matter Distortion will do to your sound is add degrees of distortion and leave your precious tone alone.
The Dark Matter Distortion pedal can also be used with TC's TonePrint App, which allows you to ‘beam’ new TonePrints to your TonePrint pedal in a matter of seconds. Each TonePrint has been converted to a unique-sounding magnetic impulse that you can beam via your smartphone's internal speaker, through the pickup of your guitar and directly to your TonePrint pedal!

The TC Electronic Dark Matter Distortion Pedal Features
TC Electronic Dark Matter DistortionThis pedal is simply great cause is very versatile! And, please, take a look to the price...unbelievable! Just 49€ for such a great pedal, well made and built like a tank by TC Electronic! I think every guitarist must have one Dark Matter pedal on his pedalboard just because you can have a great different sound (from the classic Tube Screamer sound) for that little price!
Versatile pedal, good sound with both single coil and humbucker guitars, very good for the money, it has replaced both distortion pedals on my pedalboard (that cost about 4x more). Been gigging with it twice a week with no problem.
