Signature Sounds from Disturb's Dan Donegan!

The Weapon belts out seven radically different signature tones from Dan Donegan of Disturbed in a limited-edition DigiTech effects pedal. If you're a Disturbed fan or just want to add some awesome tones to your effects arsenal, it's time to pack The Weapon!

DigiTech The Weapon guitar pedal at a Glance:
  • Seven distinctive tones from Dan Donegan
  • Exclusive DigiTech Production Modeling Technology captures original performance "magic"
  • Additional effects include Sitar Simulator, Pitch Shift and more
  • Flexible settings adjustments and dual amp/recording outputs

Seven distinctive tones from Dan Donegan
Dan Donegan of the multi-platinum band Disturbed asked DigiTech to help him recreate his studio tones for his live performances. The result was The Weapon. Digitech's Production Modeling technology reproduces seven of Dan's unique tones from songs like "Mistress" and "Stupify." And they're just a click away, whenever you need a distinctive tone!

The Weapon includes:
  • Tight high-gain "stack" tube amp distortion from "Stupify"
  • Lightly distorted rolled-off rhythm tone from "Mistress"
  • Intro to "Voices" - lush Phaser sound gives way to heavy distortion by pressing and holding pedal
  • Slow Auto-Wah with distortion a la the intro to "Bound"
  • "Down with the Sickness" Whammy sound with selectable octave intervals
  • "Stupify" sound - authentically modeled sitar sound with a touch of reverb
  • Dan's personal XMM Metal Master setting

Production Modeling Technology captures original performance "magic"
To recreate Donegan's signature sounds for The Weapon, DigiTech engineers applied their exclusive Production Modeling Technology. This unique process goes far beyond simply modeling guitar and effects sounds. DigiTech works with the artist and, often, the producer, to capture all the qualities of the performance - including mic placement, room sound, front of house sound, and the elements of the engineer's "magic" that make so much of a difference in any recording. With The Weapon, you can put DigiTech's Production Modeling Technology to work on your rig!

Additional effects include Sitar Simulator, Pitch Shift and more
More than an ordinary pedal, The Weapon offers a ton of sound options with its built-in effects. Extras include a Sitar Simulator with Reverb, Dynamic Auto-Wah and Whammy-quality pitch shifting effects.

Flexible settings adjustments and dual amp/recording outputs
The Weapon is easy to use onstage or in the studio. Its simple 4-knob operation quickly zeros in on the tone you need. A 7-position "Type" knob selects the tonal family, while two separate "Control" knobs dial in individual elements of the sound. A "Level" knob rounds out the controls. The Weapon offers two separate outputs: one for your amp and a second CIT compensated mixer output for recording. So don't sit around wishing for killer guitar tones. Get The Weapon and unleash its awesome sounds!
