Cosmodio Instruments – Glitch Witch

GLITCH WITCH: Analog CMOS Fuzz & Subsonic Chaos Engine

Where Silicon Meets Sonic Anarchy

The Glitch Witch isn’t just a fuzz—it’s a 100% analog CMOS chaos reactor that mutates your signal into rhythmic glitches, sub-octave crushers, and ring-mod nightmares. Inspired by Leon Theremin’s “Rhythmicon,” it blurs the line between pitch and rhythm like no other pedal.

Why It Redefines Fuzz

✔ Pitch-Locked Rhythm: Notes trigger unique modulation speeds (high pitch = fast glitch / low pitch = slow grind)
✔ 3 Voice Modes:
→ AM/Ring-Mod: Metallic frequency clashes
→ Crude FM: Tape-degradation warbles
→ Pitch Instability: Detuned synth madness
✔ Dual-Band EQ: Sculpt sub-boom or searing highs
✔ Clean Blend: Preserve clarity amid chaos

Industrial-Grade Sound Weapons

• Bit-Crushed Doom: DIVIDE mode + max GATE = 8-bit demolition

• Strobe Tremolo: DIVISOR at noon + VOICE 1 = stuttering pulses

• Tone Bender Resurrection: GATE min + LO max = 1965-style roar
