Keeley Bubble Tron Dynamic Flanger/Phaser Pedal Demo

Robert Keeley presents his Bubble Tron dynamic phaser/flanger pedal with help from guitarist Aaron Pierce. The Keeley Bubble Tron delves into some of the signal manipulation techniques that helped make Frank Zappa such a distinctive lead guitarist. A flanger/phaser that dynamically responds to your pick attack, cycling only as you play, the Bubble Tron features a Random Stepped Filter with proprietary M-Style Synth bandpass shaping.

I've had mine for almost a month now and I love it. It's so cool! So many options and so much tweakability! For the "Ship Ahoy" setting I've found it sounds best with an envelope filter running in front of it. I think Frank probably was running his Mu-Tron in front of his Maestro FSH when he recorded that track.

You're a genius, Robert. Thanks for aiming high.

[@dillonp7175]

Bought the bubble tron as my first pedal, fell in love immediately. Phaser + delay = pure joy. Can't decide which pedal to get next..

ALL

[@Nick-xh6of]

Hahaha. Welcome to the machine. I just got the SLO reverb and I love that thing. Also, try a pitch fork or another polyphonic octave generator. You’re wallet might hate you but your ears will thank you.

[@alexisalescio1562]

sound very well!

[@Dolores5000]

Nice

[@javierf55]

Awesome at 2:19 I just bought it

Players intersted in this sound can also check the Subdecay Proteus.

[@jmgmarcus808]

Is this an analog unit?

[@egratson]

Proteus is great but this seems more versatile.

[@Updog89]

Not sure where to put this on the signal chain. With the filter I feel like it should go before a compressor, but wouldn’t it lose its character adding it before overdrive and fuzz?

[@sweetwater]

Hi, Sarah! Thanks for your message, hope you’re well and safe. This is one you should experiment with. It could as easily go at the end of the chain as the beginning, or even in the middle. At the end it’s more like a synth where it shades and shapes everything, at the beginning more pronounced, and in the middle will interact with both tone and touch of other effects. No selection is wrong. Please contact us direct with other questions as you have them! Robert Williams, Senior Sweetwater Sales Engineer, [phone] ext. 2371, [e-mail]

Hi, Could you Tell me more about the bypass ? (Really) True bypass, relay bypass or buffer... Thanks! :-)

[@sweetwater]

Hi, Gil. That one is true bypass. Let us know if you have any other questions. Thanks for the interest! Charlie Davis, Sweetwater Sales Engineer, [phone] ext. 1320, [e-mail]

[@GILARNO75]

Hi, Real true bypass or buffer? Thanks

[@sweetwater]

Hi, Gil! This one is True Bypass. Thanks for your interest! Charlie Davis, Sweetwater Sales Engineer, [phone] ext. 1320

[@GILARNO75]

Hi Charlie, thank you for your promptness and response :)

[@angelmarrerochunkybass]

I wonder if it would sound good with bass.

[@MoodSwingerz]

I'm wondering the same thing...

[@RobertKeeleyTV]

We don't limit the bass response so it will work fine!

[@angelmarrerochunkybass]

+Robert Keeley thanks.

[@DMSR4Ever]

I use it with my Jazz bass setup and digging it!
