Crazy Tube Circuits Orama OR120-style Drive and Frantone-style Fuzz Pedal [Sound Demo & Reviews]

Orama is Greek for "vision."

As the name suggests, this dual-drive amplifier combines the texture of a classic British amp with the richness of 90s boutique fuzz in one unit, creating a wall of sound.

The amplifier side boosts the JFET to an internal 34V, reproducing the touch and headroom of the OR120.

The fuzz section provides a Peachfuzz-style persistent sustain with two voices: RAW and BURN. The two units can be stacked in series or with another pedal in between.

This is a new generation mainstay that can produce everything from crunch to doom in the center of the board.

Crazy Tube Circuits Orama | Features and Functions

Directly derived from the OR120, the "push" is achieved with the pedal.

The JFET is driven by high voltage to recreate the boundary between "breaking" and "returning" when picking. Even in the clean range, there is no retreat, and the core of the chord remains. The difference from other companies' AIABs is that you can individually adjust the volume of the low-mid range with FAT and the bite of the high range with HFD.

Peachfuzz-style thick walls and modern readability

The fuzz doesn't thin out the low end, and the tone is highly variable. The RAW/BURN dual range allows for instant response, from vintage-inspired fuzziness to thunderous sustain. Layering it with an AMP takes the "face" a step further.

Passive FX loop with serial/separate control

You can insert a chorus, EQ, or noise gate between the AMP and FUZZ to "smooth out the wall's contours." You can also completely separate the two units and use them on separate routes within the board.

Summary | Putting the "wall" in front of you, Dual-minded approach

Orama's greatest strength is that it combines the thrust of an OR120-type AIAB with the thickness of a Peachfuzz-type amplifier in a pedal-sized package, allowing you to position the low-midrange and high-range frequencies on separate axes. Even with a clean amp, the "face" comes forward, making it a great choice for guitarists who want to get results on the spot without relying on a stack.

Use a combination of RAW/BURN and FAT/HFD to define different sections of a song, and use the FX loop to refine the contours as needed. This is a unit that can be used as the core of your board for a long time, and can be considered the "solution for building walls."
