A Vintage-Voiced Fuzz Pedal That Moves on Its Own
The DigiPedal DigiFuzz is a fuzz pedal built around one big idea: a classic silicon fuzz that can sweep its own volume and tone in real time. It’s the first pedal from Bronx-based DigiPedal, and it’s made for players who love a thick, saturated 1970s fuzz but want something that doesn’t sound like every other pedal on the board.
At its core, a single high-gain NPN silicon transistor does the heavy lifting, with a silicon diode clipping the signal at the input. The result is a warm, rich, aggressive fuzz with plenty of sustain. Press both knobs and AutoSweep kicks in, turning a great static fuzz into something that breathes, swells, and shifts under your fingers.
AutoSweep: Two Fuzzes in One
Volume AutoSweep
Automatically modulates your output level. Slow settings give you gradual volume swells, while faster settings push into choppy, tremolo-style pulses.
Tone AutoSweep
Continuously sweeps between darker, muddier sounds and brighter, crisper ones. Slow it down for a lazy filter-style drift, or speed it up for quick dark-to-bright movement.
Each sweep runs independently, so you can use one, the other, or both together. Turn AutoSweep off and you’re back to a straight-ahead fuzz.
How It Fits Your Rig
Run it in front of a clean or lightly driven amp for classic fuzz lead tones, then hit a preset for a pulsing, sweeping texture on the next song. Four onboard presets make it easy to jump between a bread-and-butter fuzz and your AutoSweep settings mid-set, and the OLED screen shows your signal’s waveform so you can see exactly what the controls are doing.

FAQ
Can I use the DigiFuzz as a regular fuzz pedal?
Yes. In standard mode it works like a conventional fuzz with Volume and Tone controls. AutoSweep is only active when you turn it on.
What power supply does it need?
A standard 9V DC center-negative pedal supply with a 5.5 x 2.1 mm plug.
Do presets save when the pedal is unplugged?
Yes. All four presets stay in memory after power-off.
What does the screen show?
A live view of an emulated guitar signal, so you can watch how Volume and Tone shape the waveform, plus whether the pedal is bypassed.
