Kickstarter for MOD Devices’ Dwarf is funded in less than 24 hours

The Kickstarter campaign for MOD Devices’ latest pedal, the Dwarf, has reached its funding goal in less than 24 hours. At the time of writing, €129,350 has been pledged to the project, which began with a goal of €100,000.

The pedal itself is a take on the digital, connected multi-effects pedal. Like most current options on the market, it has extensive I/O (including USB support), a screen and variable-function control knobs to tweak effects, amplifiers and cab sims. The Dwarf can even run virtual instruments and synthesisers – and if the on-board screen isn’t enough, create patches on a laptop, tablet or phone. This is all powered by a quad-core 64 bit ARM CPU running at 1.3GHz, with 8 gb storage, and 1 gb RAM. Additionally, as its firmware is based on open-source software, user-created plugins are far more accessible – both to install and to create.

Speaking of accessibility – the Dwarf is priced very approachably, with backers who pledged €245 receiving a unit. Single preorders are sold out, however there is still the chance to preorder a single unit plus a premium plugin pack (€295), a pair of Dwarfs (€485) or three Dwarfs (€708).
