Death By Audio Announces 3 New Products Release: Crossover Fuzz In Black & Limited White, Plus the Photo Modulator


Death By Audio, the Queens-based, self-described noise-wranglers and effects creators, have announced thriple new product releases: the Crossover Fuzz in standard black, a limited Reverb-exclusive white edition (only 150 units worldwide), and the Photo Modulator, a light-sensitive expression controller.

Crossover Fuzz: Fuzz So Heavy, It Had to Be Split

More than a fuzz box, the Crossover Fuzz is a dual-band fuzz engine with linked resonant filters, independent gain and volume controls for highs and lows, and a reactive LED display that shows you where your sound is being torn apart.

By splitting the signal into highs and lows, the Crossover Fuzz allows the user to sculpt frequencies, annihilate them, or sling them across amps in stereo for massive, spatial tone. CV/expression control enables the user to sweep the crossover in real time, turning EQ into an instrument of its own.

Key Features:

  • Dual-Band Fuzz – Separate gain and volume for highs and lows.
  • Dual Linked Filters – Sweepable high-pass and low-pass filters with resonance.
  • Flexible Routing – Mono, stereo, or multi-amp setups with unique ins/outs.
  • Expression/CV Input – Modulate the crossover frequency in real time.
  • Reactive LED Display – Stage-ready visuals that shift with your filter position.

Tech Specs:

  • Dimensions – 5.73” x 5.2” x 2.37” (including hardware)
  • Weight – 18.5 oz
  • Power – Standard 9V DC (2.1mm, center-negative). Optimized for use with Death By Audio’s Raw Power power supply.
  • Current Draw – 120 mA
  • Lifetime Warranty
  • USA Retail Price – $320

The standard black edition of Crossover Fuzz will be available through Death By Audio dealers and deathbyaudio.com, while the limited white edition drops exclusively via Reverb, capped at just 150 units. Both variations are available worldwide.

Photo Modulator- Turn Light Into Control

The Photo Modulator is an ultra-compact expression accessory that swaps your foot for light. Plug it into any expression-compatible pedal, aim the sensor at a light source, and watch as brightness sweeps your parameters like an invisible hand on the treadle.

Bright light = toe down. Darkness = heel down.

Using a passive photo-resistor circuit, the Photo Modulator is compatible with Death By Audio staples like the Rooms, Evil Filter, and the new Crossover Fuzz, as well as countless other expression-ready pedals. No batteries required.

Key Features:

  • Light-Sensitive Expression – Control pedals using any light source.
  • Ultra-Compact Form – Built directly into a ¼” right-angle jack.
  • Passive Circuit – No power required.
