The Pigtronix Disnortion Micro packs all the sonic glory and 18V headroom of the original analog Fuzz and Overdrive circuits from the large-format Disnortion pedal into a miniature version that runs on 9-volts. The original, 3-footswitch Disnortion pedal was in production from 2005 to 2015 and remains in constant use with world-class bands such as Queens of the Stone Age, Aerosmith, Living Colour and Muse.
This new micro version of the Disnortion hugely one-ups the original’s broad palette of touch responsive dirt sounds by including the ability to switch from a parallel routing to a new, super-saturated series routing where the 6-stage CMOS overdrive circuit is cascaded into unique Pigtronix diode-clipping fuzz, and then output through a 6-way passive filter network. A single-gain knob controls the saturation of both the fuzz and overdrive circuits simultaneously. The Parallel routing mode is ideal for players who like to pile on the gain without sacrificing clarity, dynamic response, punch or low end-it’s like double-tracking your guitar inside a micro pedal! The Series routing mode offers an even wider range of gain and more extreme filter effects for metal tones and beyond, including self-oscillating timbres that can be modulated by pickup selection and guitar control settings.
The CMOS overdrive found in the Disnortion Micro responds to the dynamics of your playing using a unique, 6-stage gain architecture that retains the natural tone of your instrument while adding tube-style breakup as you play louder. Pigtronix Fuzz has a unique diode-clipping architecture designed to deliver compression and controllable feedback while preserving the dynamics of your playing style. The rotary tone control filter switch provides 6 musical EQ curves using a complex passive network which compliments the Overdrive channel’s traditional low-pass filter.
The original Pigtronix Disnortion is loved for its limitless headroom, making it compatible with any instrument, from the weakest 60’s pawnshop single coils to the most belligerent humbuckers, as well as 5-string active basses and modern synth rigs. Pigtronix Disnortion Micro achieves this world-class performance standard using standard 9v power… and fits in your pocket!

I love mine! It's a newer one that says DC 9-18v by the power supply jack. I contacted Pigtronix and they said that they have removed the internal voltage doubler so you have the option of using 9 volt or 18 volt.
Just got this pedal on a whim three months ago when Sweetwater had them for insane cheap. Really impressive. Contrary to some comments, the filters have a dramatic effect. Great pedal for when you need something different. Try pushing it with a fdII. Awesome!!
Nice job of demonstrating the true diversity of this little jem.
Just got one. There’s a lot going on in that mini pedal.
It's incredible
Seth Rogan's serious cousin does guitar pedal demos! :P
The original had an "Octavia" setting it doesn't look like this one does is that right?
squish882002 I had the original Distortion OFO, and that Octavia sound was my favorite part!
This micro version still sounds good, though.
I meant Disnortion not distortion
