Malcolm Toft PUNISHR 500 Series Analog Harmonic Distortion Module

500 series analog harmonic distortion module with four processing paths and three types of distortion, individual bypass LED switches and level control for each circuit, automatic gain leveling circuitry, and 1970s inspired shelving EQ at 100 Hz and 8 kHz

MFR# PUNISHR

Product Description

The Malcolm Toft PUNISHR is a harmonic saturation processor in 500 Series format, with four tonal shaping paths designed for mixing or tracking. PUNISHR offers three switchable distortion paths that can be used individually or in tandem: SYM (symmetrical distortion), ASYM (asymmetrical distortion) and IRON (transformer saturation).

The Malcolm Toft designed circuit includes 1970s inspired EQ and musical filters, alongside an Iron transformer with individual bypass and level control for all distortion elements. The EQ section can be placed pre or post the distortion path and there is a unique SUM mode where all three distortion circuits are fed simultaneously.

PUNISHR is designed to "punish your audio" with a wide range of harmonic distortion applications, from adding energy to lifeless tracks, an element of bite and grit to mixes or sonic mayhem when required!

PUNISHR is 100% designed and manufactured in the UK.

I would like to thank VK for the wonderful sales assistance, service and prices. This was my first purchase with you and it won't be my last. I only wish I'd discovered you years ago!

I had two Grammy wins this year - Ray LaMontagne & Carolina Chocolate Drops. Both made with help from Vintage King!

In almost 20 years in Pro audio buying, never did I receive a unit so well packed and exactly as described. Works flawlessly. The whole process has been so smooth. I will never hesitate to do business with you guys in the future and will recommend you to everyone I know.

This was my first experience buying something from Vintage King (although I surf the "used" categories on the website frequently!), and, despite being on the other side of the world, I had absolutely no trouble and everything went very smoothly.

The speed of delivery exceeded my expectations! I was VERY pleased that my shipment arrived in time for a scheduled vocal tracking session. The packing insured that my order arrived safely. And the sales staff responded quickly to questions regarding the product.

My experience with Vintage King was excellent. The order was here fast considering it was out of stock. The sales person had SKB send it to me directly and I couldn't have been more pleased.
Michael D.
From the minute I placed my order I was kept well-informed through each step in your process. Even though I was buying a comparatively modest piece of gear, your attention to detail made me feel like I was purchasing a six-figure mixing desk.
