Glitchy Atmospheres in a Pocket-Sized Powerhouse
The Electro-Harmonix Pico Atomic Cluster is a compact spectral decomposer designed to turn your guitar or synth signal into glitchy textures, rhythmic patterns, and lush ambient tones. Its unique algorithm reduces your signal’s frequency resolution and rebuilds it into resonant oscillations, creating everything from lo-fi digital chatter to sweeping synth pads. ATOMS controls how many oscillations are active, letting you shift from near-natural tones to heavily pixelated chaos, while SPEED determines how fast those oscillations refresh, with tap tempo for precise rhythmic control. SHARP mode gives tight, percussive transitions, while SMOOTH mode blends everything into evolving atmospheric layers. With additional VOL and BLEND knobs for fine-tuning your mix, the Pico Atomic Cluster delivers an impressive range of sound-design possibilities in a tiny footprint.
At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the Pico Atomic Cluster is perfect for players chasing experimental textures, glitchy rhythms, or synth-like soundscapes from a single small pedal.
