These early tech experiments continue to influence his current projects. Ideas just starting now are going to be an integral part of the creative world for years to come. Through his companies - including Casa Distortion, Skyscraper Holding Company and the newly formed SSB Technologies –Scott’s also become a technical innovator, both in the music world and outside of it. PEDALpUNK is the initial offering from his Casa Distortion bureau and the latest design from the top producer, musical innovator and entrepreneur. Olivier has been engulfed in the world of music, sound design and digital audio technology for two decades, working with Michael Jackson, Gwen Stefani and No Doubt, Van Halen, Christina Aguilera, Chris Cornell and Goo Goo Dolls.
The presentation and workshop will be followed by a Q&A session, and you can enter to win a PEDALpUNK as well! The clinic runs from 1pm to 3pm and will include a demonstration on the myriad uses of PEDALpUNK to students, who are encouraged to bring their own music files to run through the device. PEDALpUNK was designed by producer and entrepreneur Scott Eric Olivier, who will be conducting an interactive seminar at the Musician’s Institute in Hollywood, CA on Friday, April 22.
The retail price of the unit will be $399 but is now available for $349 during the pre-sale until April 22. PEDALpUNK has been featured by Music Radar, Premier Guitar and Pedal Finder and is currently available for pre-order HERE. Conversely, it also works as a distortion pedal. The audio interface works with all pedals and can play through any system to create a balanced connection for an unbalanced signal. PEDALpUNK! allows analog devices, such as guitar effects pedals, to interact with computers without any quality loss and is now available for pre-order ahead of its April 25 release. Here’s the press release with more information on the PEDALpUNK and it’s inventor Scott Eric Olivier: I found it to be extremely useful and easy to use, the casing seems bulletproof and The signal coming out of my interface is rarely ideal for what I need, so the PEDALpUNK takes care of all the problems that arise in those situations. I use this pedal mainly with a Darkglass Electronics B7K Ultra (review coming soon) to effect my bass tracks after I’ve recorded them to make them fit in the mix better, and for this it is an absolute godsend. It has 1/4″ send and return jacks for the pedal loop, a combo XLR/1/4″ input, and the option of a 1/4″ or XLR output, as well as phase and ground/lift switches. The Send sets the level of the incoming signal to the pedals, Return is the level back to your recording interface, and Focus is a variable impedance knob that helps when working with non-buffered and/or true bypass pedals. It’s only got three knobs – Send, Return, and Focus. It’s essentially a reamp box with specific features for pedals. Well, with the PEDALpUNK, that weird psychotic dream is now a reality. PEDALpUNK allows you to put your pedals into a loop to effect the tracks in your DAW with no quality loss. You think to yourself, these drums sound good, but man, this middle section would sound great with some insane distortion on them – if only I could put them through my Metal Zone.
Imagine, if you will, that you are mixing a track. I’ll be brief – mainly because the PEDALpUNK is an extremely simple, but powerful, device.
