Description

 SWARM

The Swarm is an Analog Fuzz Harmonizer that sounds like a thousand killer bees coming to get you! 
 
It basically turns your input signal into a square wave, than multiplies and divides the frequency of that wave, giving you nine possible harmonies in two different octaves. Modulation is applied to the harmonies making them go from a nearly perfect tracking harmony, to a wild and uncontrollable swarm of mad bees.
 
 The WORKER sets the level of your input signal, now fuzzy and buzzy. The SPECIES allows you to select between 9 different intervals for your harmonies. The QUEEN and DRONE set the levels for each of the harmonies that stay one octave apart. 
 
The FLIGHT and STING control the modulation applied to the harmonies. They are highly interactive controls and you will find many different sounds by just messing with these. STING sets how fast or slow the harmonies will follow your playing. Turn it CCW for it to feel like the harmonies sting you at every note you play. Turn it CW and the harmonies will sound like a drunk bee hovering up and down around the root. FLIGHT will set the response of the modulation. CCW the harmonies will keep it oscillating up and down, while CW it will glide and hold from one note to the next. 
 
The MASTER control will set your output volume. 
 
With all that said, no matter how one tries to explain the theory and what each control does, the Swarm is best when played by instinct. Mess with every control until you find a tone that you like and let the bees take you to sonic places you've never been!

14-Day Hive Happiness Guarantee

At Beetronics, we're as committed as worker bees to ensure your satisfaction with our products, and that's why we offer our 30-Day Hive Happiness Guarantee (shipping not included). 

If your experience with a Beetronics product doesn't quite create that sweet buzz you were hoping for, don't worry. Just drop us an email within 30 business days of receiving your order, and we'll send you an RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization) form. This little guide will help you navigate the process of returning your item.

Once you have the RMA form, make sure it's snugly tucked inside the shipping box. For a full refund, the product should be returned in new condition, safely nestled in its original packaging.

A quick note: If a product shows signs of wear and tear or happens to be missing its bee-cessories, there might be a modest restocking fee of 15%, or the possibility of receiving store credit instead. Please understand that we might have to decline a return if the product looks a bit too "buzzed."

To ensure your return journey goes as smooth as honey, opt for a shipping method with tracking and declare the full value of the shipment.

Keep in mind, the cost of returning the item will be as busy as a bee on your end.

Once you've got your RMA form, aim to have the item back to our hive within 7 days. Returns that flutter in later than that might face a bit of a delay in processing.

Once the returned product finds its way back to our hive, rest assured, we'll process the refund within 5 business days.

Lastly, be aware that products labeled as "Scratch and Dent" are sold in their current stripy condition and won't be able to take flight for a refund.

    Abelha – Tropical Fuzz Reimagined.

    A psychedelic fuzz that captures the wild spirit of Brazil’s Tropicália era, with three distinct voices and a sting all its own.

    The Abelha (Portuguese for bee) delivers vintage fuzz tones with a modern twist. Three unique fuzz modes, a powerful 2-band EQ, and the special Tropical Mode give you everything from spitty and saggy to bold and biting.

    Tropical Mode recreates the iconic sound of a fuzz pedal plugged directly into a recording console — bright, raw, and edgy — even when played through an amp.

    Bluesbreaker + Klon Inspiration

    Two distinct circuits with complementary voices — one smooth and dynamic, the other tight and punchy.

    Series or Parallel Routing

    Stack them for saturation, or run them side-by-side in parallel for wide, articulate tones.

    Full Control on Each Side

    Three-way voicing switches, Honey (gain), Taste (tone), and Volume knobs per circuit — plus dedicated footswitches for each.

    COMMON QUESTIONS

    What makes the Wannabee different from other dual overdrives?

    Most dual drives only offer stacked series routing. The Wannabee also gives you parallel routing, letting both circuits run side-by-side for more clarity, depth, and control.

    Can I use each side independently?

    Yes. Each drive has its own footswitch, so you can run them solo or together — however you want.

    What do the voicing switches do?

    On the Bluesbreaker side, the switch shapes the low-end response (Mid Boost, Flat, Low Boost). On the Klon-style side, it controls how much clean signal blends in (None, Medium, Full).

    Can I switch the signal order in series mode?

    Yes. You can choose which circuit comes first when stacking the drives in series.

    What power does it need?

    9V DC center-negative (standard pedal power supply).

    Is it true bypass?

    Yes, it features true bypass switching to preserve your signal when the effect is off.
