For a high gain tube amp sound in a tiny box, check out the TC Dark Matter Distortion. We heard that this thing contains real Dark Matter, but TC won’t tell us the ingredients that make the Dark Matter pedal have that tube amp distortion sound. We suspect that, whatever it is, there’s something a bit special in here!

The TC Dark Matter is a highly dynamic, responsive distortion that has gain for days, and retains all the bass and clarity of your signal when it’s on. The result is a monsterous tone which rolls off into a crunchy just-breaking-up overdrive when you roll the volume down.

Dark Matter Distortion aims to give you that powerful, super-musical roar of an early plexi – a sound that will satisfy even the pickiest players out there. We are confident we have achieved just that, and this is one of those pedals you have to try to believe what it can actually do for your distorted sounds.

From cleans with an attitude and warm bluesy tones to a crunch with grit for days and fully saturated lead sounds full of harmonics and overtones, it’s all here in spades and instantly available by riding your guitar’s volume knob. Dark Matter distortion is built from the highest-grade components, features an easy-access battery hatch and has a conveniently small footprint.

At TC Electronic, we love great and musical distortion. As guitarists, we know all about the pure bliss an A-power chord through an amazing overdriven amp gives, and as world-class guitar pedal manufacturers, we know exactly how to obtain that sound through a pedal.

So, we decided to focus on a distortion sound that brings your tone to life. We want to give you distortion sounds that spice up your riffs and solos in a way that makes you feel like you are playing the ‘Enormodome’; distortion sounds so mean you should really have a license to operate them!

Introducing Dark Matter Distortion, we are proud to be loud!

A whole bunch of crunch

Dark Matter Distortion defines instant gratification and will become the go-to pedal on your board for distortion. Initially, you simply plug it in and start rocking, but its many great sounds will have you playing with it for years to come. From bluesy crunch to full-on vintage cranked, but always very musical distortion sounds, this pedal was designed for the guitarists that like things a bit (or very) dirty. Featuring an all-analog circuit, dual-band tone controls, level and drive knobs and a voicing switch to tweak the bass response, you are set from creamy leads over riff-heavy stadium rock to modern, angst-ridden grunge.

By ramping up the voltage to more than 3-4 times the amount of your typical drive pedals, we achieved a dramatic increase in terms of headroom and dynamics, giving you a pedal with a range of sounds matched by none out
