The Drone Tone from Mattoverse is a drone synthesizer for your pedalboard. Drone Tone is a pitch and rate controllable square wave oscillator in a guitar pedal format.

It can be used stand-alone or with an instrument input, however, the instrument input is unaffected and is simply buffered and passed-through to the output jack. The mix control sets the volume of the square wave oscillator at the output jack.

MKIII adds onboard tap tempo, tempo sync input (0-5V), internal pitch range control, and top mounted jacks.

This pedal makes no sense to most people, probably because it is not a "guitar pedal" in the traditional sense... but it continues to be one of my favorite Mattoverse pedals. It's simple, fun, and I love tuning it to a pitch or key and noodling along. It also does weird things to the clipping on gain based pedals and is fun with delays, loopers, etc..

Rate: Turn this knob to increase the speed of the square wave pulse. Turning this knob fully clockwise will result in a constant non-pulsed tone. *The tap tempo footswitch overides the rate knob until it is turned again.

Pitch: Turn this knob clockwise to increases the pitch of the square wave oscillator. Inside the pedal is a trim switch that adjusts the maximum pitch range.

Mix: Turn this knob clockwise to increase the volume of the square wave oscillator.

Tone: Turn this knob clockwise to increase the brightness or tone of the square wave.
