Electro-Harmonix has brought a brand-new bucket-brigade stompbox to market to tie up 2020: the Eddy Vibrato/Chorus pedal. This combo pedal is packed with modern control features while still maintaining the sounds and vibe that makes EHX's series of bucket-brigade pedals so special.
In the words of founder Mike Matthews, "EHX’s long history in creating bucket-brigade based pedals goes all the way back to the Electric Mistress Flanger, the Memory Man Analog Delay and the Clone Theory Chorus/Vibrato. The new Eddy springboards off that rich heritage and adds modern control to classic sounds."
The Eddy features unique LFO shape-warping, which lets players change the shape of your modulation from a sine wave to something asymmetric. You can control the modulation rate and depth with onboard controls, as well as adjust the sound brighter or darker with the tone pot.
Finally, the Eddy also allows for envelope and expression pedal control over the modulation rate and depth if you choose to connect them. By connecting an expression pedal, you'll be able to control the rate and depth at the same time.
