Four effects, one pedal
Fuzz
Thick, saturated fuzz with plenty of gain on tap, and a volume to keep it in check.
Fuzz · Gain · Volume
Reverb
A wide, glistening space. Decay sets how long it hangs in the air, Shimmer adds the frost on top.
Reverb · Decay · Shimmer
Glitch
A granular engine that freezes your signal into fragments and scatters them in time.
Grains · Density · Mod · Glitch
Bitcrusher
Switch on Crush and lower the sample rate for lo-fi, digital grit.

Hear it
Höarfrost puts four effects side by side, like a small pedalboard engraved on a single plate of brushed metal.
Push your sound through a fuzz that bites, wash it in a shimmering reverb, break it into frozen grains and crush it into digital dust. Use one or all of them at once.

Built like a pedal
