EarthQuaker Devices Astral Destiny 2021 White/Red

Hi fellow noise makers, (marketing and tech specs below). We think this is one of the coolest and affordable pedals EarthQuaker has created. We only sell what we love and would use ourselves. If you are looking to get into ambient and large manipulated reverb and etheral sounds this is for you. With 8 factory presets, 1 for each reverb mode and expression control this will be taking a place on my ambient board in the studio. Let us know if you have any questions and make sure you check out the video. We love that EarthQuaker uses top mounted jacks and power, this makes it easy to get more EarthQuaker devices on your board.

Astral Destiny 

An Octal Octave Reverberation Odyssey

The Astral Destiny is a compact and powerful modulated octave reverb pedal that features 8 reverb modes with 8 editable presets, assignable expression control, tails for natural reverb decay when the effect is bypassed and a super cool stretch feature that doubles the length of the reverb while adding an adjustable pitch bending effect.

Each Astral Destiny is built one at a time by a team of Los Angeles-based robots and a handful of real life humans in the occupied Erie territory presently known as Akron, Ohio.

Tails or Full Bypass Switching

 Astral Destiny can operate in two different bypass states: Tails or Full Bypass. It comes factory set in Tails Mode which allows the reverb effect to naturally decay after the effect is bypassed and is indicated by a Green Activate LED. Full Bypass will cut the reverb effect completely when the effect is bypassed and is indicated by a Red Activate LED.
