Ripppletron V2
Modulation That Moves: Pitch, Trem, and Phase in One
The Ripppletron from Monkey Riot Pedals is a swirling, shifting modulation machine that blurs the lines between pitch vibrato, tremolo, and phasing—without ever sounding like anything else. Built for players who want lush movement and deep texture, this pedal creates a constantly evolving soundscape that can be subtle and musical or full-on psychedelic.
Version 2 adds even more flexibility with an internal dip switch to toggle between Guitar and Bass modes. Bass mode increases the low-end response using larger coupling caps—perfect for bassists who want to keep things deep, or guitarists looking for an even warmer modulation character.
Four Simple Knobs, Infinite Movement
-
Speed: Controls the rate of the internal LFO
-
Depth: Sets the strength of pitch and volume modulation—go from gentle shimmer to seasick wobble
-
Wave: Adjusts tremolo intensity—subtle at minimum, deep square-wave chop at max
-
Filter: Adds resonance for more pronounced phasing and complexity
The Depth, Wave, and Filter controls are highly interactive, unlocking a massive range of textures. Whether you’re crafting a watery warble, a rhythmic pulse, or a synthy swirl, the Ripppletron responds musically to your touch.
