Gamechanger Audio PLASMA RACK High Voltage Distortion Rack Unit (1 RU)
The Gamechanger Audio PLASMA Rack brings the unmistakable sound of real high-voltage plasma distortion into a professional 1U rackmount format. Rather than relying on conventional clipping circuits, it transforms your audio into visible electrical discharges inside a xenon-filled plasma tube, producing a gritty, harmonically rich distortion with dynamic response that is impossible to replicate using traditional analog or digital processors.
Designed for studio and live production, the PLASMA Rack features balanced and unbalanced I/O, dedicated microphone, instrument and line-level compatibility, three configurable FX loops, full MIDI implementation, expression pedal support and eight user presets. Its fully analog audio path is paired with digital parameter control, making it equally at home in modern DAW-based studios and hardware production environments.
Beyond its signature distortion, the PLASMA Rack includes exclusive processing tools such as the CLEAN GATE effect, dynamic Tremolo and Ring Modulation, SUSTAINER, and OVERSATURATION circuits. These controls allow everything from subtle harmonic enhancement to sputtering textures, rhythmic modulation and aggressive sound destruction for drums, synths, guitars, vocals and full mixes.
The PLASMA Rack is a mono processor, but two units can be linked via MIDI for true stereo operation. Combined with comprehensive MIDI control, assignable expression pedal functionality and premium studio-grade connectivity, it delivers a unique processing experience for producers, engineers and experimental musicians looking to push sound beyond conventional distortion.
