Description: "Urla" is an Italian verb which means "scream" in second person imperative (tu, urla = you, scream).

A loud, aggressive and experimental device which consists in 2 effects in 1 pedal unit, the URLA is a CMOS fuzz in front of a synth-based dual resonant filter.

CMOS Fuzz:

A CMOS chip works with digital logic (1, 0).
Compared to the transistor based fuzz circuits (it doesn't matter if germanium or silicon), in a CMOS fuzz there is no "in-between", no "dynamic range", no "vintage tone" or anything like that. There are just 1s and 0s, so no matter which kind of waveshape you put into it: the output will always be square wave with no adjustable gain neither since the square wave is as distorted as it can get.

The URLA obviously makes no exceptions and it provides an overdriven, glitchy and gated fuzz sound with a decay that dies abruptly (but still allowing to sustain each note thanks to a bass boost stage that we put at the very beginning of the signal path).

It offers 2 controls: VOLUME and BLEND.
VOLUME (fuzz)
Adjusts the output level of the fuzz.

BLEND:
As the name suggests, this control allows to blend the fuzz sound with the original signal placed in front of the URLA. Clean guitar tone is probably the most basic example in that sense but no doubt the bravest sonic adventures could find plenty of different as exciting solutions (e.g. as "wall of sounds" enthusiasts, we do love to place a shimmer reverb in front of it or some modulation as well to create different kind of textures). Being a fully analog jFET blend, it goes from almost completely DRY (counterclockwise) to 100% wet signal (clockwise).

DUAL RESONANT FILTER:
This is the second effect placed in the internal signal chain of the URLA and it consists in a faithful replica of the analog filter section of the glorious Korg MS-20, simply our all times favorite vintage monophonic synthesizer.

It's an HIGH PASS filter connected in series with a LOW PASS one, both adjustable with their relative controls of CUTOFF and PEAK. Also, we added a dual potentiometer to control the VOLUME of both, which is pretty useful in order to dial with other output levels in chain (including the internal FUZZ placed in front).

VOLUME: (filter)
Sets the output level of the dual filter.

CUTOFF:
These knobs allow to decide where the frequencies (high ones by LP, low ones by HP) have to be cut. No doubt they're the most exciting controls of the URLA.

We placed those on the external sides of the pedal surface exactly because of that: you'll love messing up with those as much as possible by exploring the wild excursions of both. In fact, depending on the place of their relative PEAK knobs, they can go approximately from 50hz to 15kHz.
Note: since the filters are connected in series (HP into LP), you'll completely mute your signal by turning the LP cutoff fully counterclockwise.

PEAK:
While cutoff allows to remove frequencies (harmonics) from the incoming audio signal, their respective resonance allows to have an additional controlled amplification of that cutoff frequency, creating a secondary peak form and coloring the original pitch.
The resonances of the original Korg MS-20 are well known for their pretty wild and loud nature due their tendency to create a microphonic feedback at extreme settings. URLA makes no exceptions, so USE THESE KNOBS CAREFULLY because they really make your amp scream at high level!

EXPRESSION:
We're not going to lie: if you'll not play the URLA with an expression pedal (by using a TRS cable) to control the cutoff of your favorite filter (HP or LP it's up to you: just place the EXP toggle switch where you prefer), you'll probably miss more than the 90% of the fun.
For that reason, our friend Luca Romanelli from Mastro Valvola (the same guy who wrote the code for the RESPIRA's shimmer) designed an expression input which works correctly with ANY expression pedal on the market.

But there's more: when the expression pedal is plugged into the URLA, you can still set the minimum (the starting point of the parameter you want to control with the expression pedal) by adjusting the relative cutoff knob.

As aggressive as experimental-friendly, URLA is our tribute to all the industrial, noise and alternative artists/records that made our world a better place to live.

Switching System: true bypass managed by soft switch + programmed relay. Power: 9v center negative. Current draw: 100 mA minimum

    Mag-Safe Magnetic
    Great product! The MagSafe compatibility is perfect—it snaps right on instantly. I prefer this over the wireless charging mounts because those always seem to overheat my phone on long trips. This is lightweight, stable, and the all-black aesthetic blends right into the Tesla screen frame. 10/10 for any Tesla owner.

    Perfect Little Mount for Tesla Drivers
    I like that this Tesla phone mount snaps onto the back of the screen cleanly and holds my iPhone with a strong MagSafe grip. It keeps the phone right where I need it without blocking the view, and the adjustable angle makes navigation super easy to see while driving. I do not like that it can wobble a tiny bit on rough roads, and the magnet isn’t as strong if you’re using a thicker case. Overall, a great accessory that makes the Model 3/Y setup even more convenient!

    Tesla MagSafe mount for phone
    Very cool phone mount that I hadn’t thought to purchase until I saw it as an option on Vine. Easy to install using the included adhesive strips pre-attached to the mount. It has a nice firm grip on the MagSafe for the phone and the mount itself sticks very well to the back of the Tesla screen with no issues. It is in the perfect location in the dashboard area as it doesn’t block any view or buttons. No negative aspects to my experience with this product.

    Arm can be positioned in many ways, but doesn't grip as hard and the phone rattles in rough roads
    I liked how this product looked in the picture so I ordered it. But when I installed it, I found out that it doesn't have the same amount of "grip power" because you have to turn a little knob on the side to tighten the grip and it's not that easy to do compared to other screw type phone mounts that have bigger screws. The magnet was slightly weaker than my existing phone holder but it was adequately strong. It was good to see how one could position the phone in different positions due to the way the arm is designed to be moved and adjusted. But the one biggest thing I didn't like is how the phone kept on shaking/rattling when I drove over rough roads. The metal arm is quite thin and although it's metal and not plastic, due to the thinness of the material, it was easily rattled and made the phone rattle a lot in return. Over smooth roads this won't be a big problem though. I wasn't quite satisfied with this, although it's adequately good enough.

    Style: 15W Charger
    I have purchased so many mounts, but this one is perfect. It is easy to remove and apply to the screen. I don’t have to worry about damaging the screen with adhesive. The magnet is strong, and as a result, the phone is very stable. The most important benefit for me is the multiple viewing positions. The vertical placement and height are prefect. This is a quality product.
