Key Features
The KMA Machines Mandrake Octo-Shrieker Pedal is an innovative sound modulation accessory that offers an unparalleled blend of flexibility and precision. Built upon an improved version of the Shriek circuit from the esteemed MOAI MAEA pedal, the Mandrake provides an enhanced upper octave sound, enriching your sonic output. The pedal is a testament to KMA Machine's dedication to crafting the most versatile analog upper octave pedal, presenting a plethora of tonal options in a user-friendly interface. From subtle tone enhancement to outright dual octave grind, this robust pedal ensures ultra-fast tracking and a wide array of tonal options courtesy of its variable TIMBRE and FILTER controls.
The Mandrake pedal isn't just a mere octave-up device. Its prowess lies in its versatile enhancements that include a 2nd order Low-Pass Filter, TIMBRE, and individual Mix controls, significantly expanding the capabilities of the renowned Shriek circuit. The FILTER control refines your upper harmonics for a varied range of sounds, from ear-piercing shrieks to a mellower, synth-like texture. The TIMBRE control, on the other hand, allows you to manage the amount of fuzzy gain in the upper octave, enabling a perfect integration of the pedal's tonality with your signal chain. With independent Mix controls for both the dry signal and affected upper octave, the Mandrake pedal gives you complete tonal control, whether you aim for a subtle descant or a decimating octaval Armageddon. The choice is entirely yours with the Mandrake Octo-Shrieker Pedal from KMA Machines.

The Mandrake Octo-Shrieker Pedal offers an exceptional upper octave sound, making it a must-have for musicians seeking to add a touch of flair to their playing. Whether you're looking for subtle overtones or powerful, screaming octaves, this pedal delivers with precision and clarity.
It's an effect that's formed the sound of many guitar icons, but the Mandrake isn't limited to the spiky sharpness of a simple octave up, as its ultra-fast tracking and powerful shriek circuit bestows and edgy and fuzzy character to your sound. It's the kind of vintage-character that enthusiasts trawl through second hand stores for - all wrapped up in a modern, pedal-board-friendly package. To achieve this, KMA included second order Low-Pass Filter, timbre and mix controls, all on top of the legendary KMA circuit.
The KMA Machines Mandrake Octo-Shrieker Pedal features a Filter control that allows you to fine-tune your upper harmonics for a range of sounds. From piercing shrieks to warmer, synth-like textures, the Filter control gives you the ability to shape and customize your tone according to your preferences. At full whack, you'll get a shrieking cacophony that can bring the house down, whereas lower settings can introduce gentle, synth-like bloom to your notes. Get creative!
The Timbre control on the Mandrake pedal manages the amount of fuzzy gain in the upper octave, giving you full control over how much distortion and edge is added to your sound. Whether you want a subtle hint of fuzz or an all-out sonic assault, this control lets you dial in just the right amount to suit your playing style.
The Mandrake Octo-Shrieker Pedal features separate Mix controls for the dry signal and affected upper octave, allowing you to blend the two to your desired level. Whether you want a subtle background effect or a dominant, in-your-face tone, these mix controls give you complete control over how much of the pedal's effect is applied to your sound.
