Painting "a realistic view of the modern world while also adding magical elements, blurring the lines between fantasy and reality, Caroline Guitar Company's Meteore is "magic realism" in pedal form.
What's real are overtones and regeneration taken from the glass, steel and tile of line 14 of the Paris Métro (the original inspiration of the meteore).
What's imagined is the overdrive. Although only a select few reverbs can be overdriven, Lowering the fidelity increases the intensity of the reverb and creates a surreal sonic landscape that was once the paris metro.
