Big Goat is an analog modeled simulation of one of the greatest fuzzbox ever made in the mid ‘70s, the Electro-Harmonix® Big Muff Pi™, and used in countless records. The signal passes through 4 cascaded amplifier stages, were 2 of them are clipping stages. The result is a sustained fuzz, very rich in harmonics, with a unique tone.
Toolbar
The Toolbar allows you to manage the plugin presets, register the plugin and set some global parameters. Click the AUDIORITY logo, in the top left corner of the Toolbar, to visit our website and social profiles, register the plugin, change the interface size and customize the paths for license and preset files. The HQ button will enable oversampling, useful to reduce aliasing when the signal saturates. Use the Randomize and Reset buttons to experiment with random presets or restoring it to its saved version. The NOTIFICATIONS (bell) icon will show you when a new update is available and other relevant news and offers.
