EarthQuaker Devices Stereo Easy Listening Analog Amp Simulator Guitar Effects Pedal

The EarthQuaker Devices Stereo Easy Listening is a fully analogue stereo amp and cabinet simulator designed as a simple end-of-chain solution for pedalboards, direct recording, live rigs and silent practice.

It combines a warm American-style amp voice with true stereo inputs, dual balanced XLR outputs, active 3-band EQ, stereo headphone monitoring and a dedicated Aux input.

There are no menus, presets or IRs to manage — just straightforward analogue amp simulation with flexible routing for guitar, bass and synth.

Fully Analogue Amp Simulation

Stereo Easy Listening uses an entirely analogue signal path, making it a great option for players who want a direct rig without moving into digital modelling.

Its core voicing provides a warm, mid-scooped American-style foundation that works particularly well with:

• Overdrive

• Distortion

• Fuzz

• Modulation

• Stereo delay

• Stereo reverb

• Bass

• Synths

It can also be used after a digital modeller to add additional analogue character.

True Stereo Operation

Separate Left and Right 1/4" inputs allow stereo pedalboard effects to remain stereo through the amp-simulation stage.

Ideal for rigs using:

• Stereo chorus

• Ping-pong delay

• Stereo reverb

• Stereo modulation

• Wide ambient effects

Mono-to-Stereo

Running a conventional mono rig?

Connect to the Left input and Stereo Easy Listening can provide a stereo output path without requiring you to rebuild the rest of your pedalboard.

This makes it particularly useful for players moving between mono and stereo live or recording setups.

Dual Balanced XLR Outputs

Dedicated Left and Right XLR outputs allow direct connection to:

• PA systems

• Front of house

• Mixing consoles

• Stage boxes

• Audio interfaces

• Recording equipment

This makes Stereo Easy Listening an excellent option for amp-free live rigs and direct recording.

Stereo Headphone Output

A dedicated 1/4" stereo headphone output lets you monitor the complete amp-sim signal without a conventional amplifier.

Ideal for:

• Silent practice

• Home recording

• Touring

• Hotel rooms

• Backstage warm-ups

• Compact writing setups

Active 3-Band EQ

The onboard EQ provides dedicated:

• Bass

• Middle

• Treble

This makes it easy to adapt the amp voicing to different instruments, pedalboards, PA systems and monitoring environments.

Aux Input

The dedicated Aux input has its own level control and bypasses the amp/cab simulation section.

Use it with:

• Backing tracks

• Drum machines

• Phones

• Music players

• Other suitable line-level sources

This makes the Stereo Easy Listening especially practical for practice and rehearsal setups.

Fair Deal Music Verdict

The EarthQuaker Devices Stereo Easy Listening is a highly practical option for players who want a direct rig without the complexity of a digital modelling system.

Its fully analogue signal path, active EQ and true stereo routing make it particularly well suited to modern pedalboards, while the dual XLR outputs provide a straightforward connection to front of house or an audio interface.

The headphone output and dedicated Aux input also make it useful away from the stage, whether you're practising silently, recording at home or working on the road.

For musicians looking for a simple, analogue and genuinely stereo alternative to conventional amp modelling, Stereo Easy Listening is a very flexible end-of-chain solution.
