Description
The EarthQuaker Devices Afterneath Reverb Pedal V3 is a top-notch reverb pedal with loads of legendary, ethereal reverb sounds on tap. This limited edition Raw Silver Afterneath V3 boasts a striking aesthetic, making it ideal for the EarthQuaker enthusiast or avid collector.
At its core, the Afterneath V3 uses a swarm of short delays to create everything from wild, cavernous reverbs to scattered, short rhythmic delays. When fully cranked, the reverb can conjure colossal walls of sound beyond the territory of most standard reverb pedals. Manipulating the pedal's settings allows users to stretch, smudge, swell and even self-oscillate their signal into blooming washes of sound, perfect for creating ambient, otherworldly soundscapes.
With so much power under the hood, it's essential to do a deep dive into the Afterneath V3's controls. By turning up the Reflect and Length parameters, the Afterneath will begin to self-oscillate. Using the Drag parameter, users can manipulate the pitch of the oscillation for glitched-out tones. The Mode control influences the behavior of the Drag control, with nine different modes available:
1. Unquantized: Smooth pitch change over the operating range.
2. Unquantized with Slew: Like the unquantized mode, but with a slight lag behind the knob/CV changes.
3. Unquantized Volt/Octave: Smooth pitch changes, but scaled to align with the 1v/octave curve, making melodic modulation easier.
4. Chromatic Scale: Quantized 1v/octave to the chromatic scale, Drag selects the intervals along the chromatic scale.
5. Major Scale: Quantized 1v/octave to the major scale, Drag selects the intervals along the major scale.
6. Minor Scale: Quantized 1v/octave to the minor scale, Drag selects the intervals along the minor scale.
7. Pentatonic Scale: Quantized 1v/octave to the pentatonic scale, Drag selects the intervals along the pentatonic scale.
8. Octaves & Fifths: Quantized 1v/octave to omit all but octaves and fifths, Drag goes between octaves and fifths of the original tone.
9. Octaves: Quantized 1v/octave to omit all but octaves, Drag goes between different octaves of the original pitch.
In typical EarthQuaker fashion, the Afterneath V3 is bold, otherworldly, and has enough features to create a near-infinite world of sounds, making it ideal for adventurous players and tone-explorers. When you're ready to lose yourself in sweeping waves of reverb, delay, and modulation, the Afterneath V3 is waiting for you.
