Stereo tape emulation modeling VCRs, dictaphones, and vintage machines. Failure knob dials in custom malfunctions.

The Generation Loss MKII expands Chase Bliss's tape degradation pedal into stereo with even more accurate real-time tape modeling. The Model knob selects between different tape machines (VCRs, dictaphones, vintage equipment) while independent Wow and Flutter controls shape the modulation character.

The Failure knob is the star: it dials in customizable malfunction effects that simulate the unpredictable behavior of degrading tape. Classic mode recalls the original Generation Loss character. True stereo I/O with mono-in/stereo-out capability.

Two presets, full MIDI/expression/CV control. True bypass (mode dependent). Released October 2022. 250mA at 9V DC center-negative.
