{"product_id":"42730","title":"Dr. Scientist Dungeon Crawler distortion Pedal","description":"\n\u003cp\u003eThe Dr. Scientist Dungeon Crawler is a FET-based distortion pedal built around three MOSFET amplifier stages that generate all of its clipping and saturation. Designed as Dr. Scientist's most amp-like gain pedal to date, it covers a wide range of drive textures, from pushing a clean amplifier into breakup through to extreme high-gain distortion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe circuit combines substantial gain, strong pick attack, extensive EQ shaping, clean signal blending, and an integrated noise gate, providing detailed control over both tone and feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA dedicated Boost footswitch increases both gain and output level, allowing instant access to a more aggressive sound when required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMOSFET Gain Architecture\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDungeon Crawler uses three MOSFET amplifier stages for all clipping and saturation duties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis design focuses on:\n- Amplifier-like response\n- High gain capability\n- Strong pick attack\n- Dynamic playing feel\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDeep Tone Shaping\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pedal features a comprehensive EQ section with independent controls

allows clean signal to be blended alongside the distorted signal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGrind Control\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Grind control introduces a silicon NPN transistor rectifier stage that can be blended into the signal path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis adds an additional layer of aggression and alters the character of the distortion independently of the main gain controls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIntegrated Noise Gate\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDungeon Crawler includes a built-in noise gate designed to help manage unwanted noise when using higher gain settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gate amount is adjustable from the front panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBoost Mode\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA second footswitch activates Boost mode, increasing both:\n- Gain\n- Output level\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis provides immediate access to a more intense version of the current sound without changing the pedal's core
