from 773 reviewsActually very versatile if you keep the main settings low. Love the pressure pads added to my tool bag
Like everything from Ezhi and Aka it's a crazy fun wild pedal that can be normal but where's the fun in that? It loves to be played with and tweaked. I highly suggest picking one up!
Love all the different tones I get out of this pedal. really like the distorted tones.
ezhi&aka make some of the most inventive pedals out there. (โOut thereโ being the operative phrase.) They describe Running for 78 as producing the sound of a skipping CD player - as in when youโre running for the #78 bus. But that sells this pedal short. To my ears, it is the corrosion on your tin can telephone. Itโs sun spot interference in the signal of the cosmos. Itโs fizz and rust and rattle. And it is beautiful. It takes the cleanest of signals and returns them as if theyโve lived a life of hard knocks and hard-won wisdom. A fantastic tool in the sound shapers kit.
Great, heavy fuzz with a subtle octave effect. With the octave turned up, oscillation shows up to produce a dynamic texture. Fantastic for a bit of controlled chaos. Shoegaze-friendly for building a wall of sound.
I love the Dawner Prince Boonar. The pedal is small and provides many useful and lovely tones that bring moments of joy.
The Aether is a fun, quirky delay that turns ordinary repeats into warm, warped little ghosts. The modulation is the real magicโespecially the unpredictable Stray setting, which makes every trail feel slightly alive and off-kilter. It is not a pristine delay, and that is exactly why it rules: put it before a big reverb and suddenly your guitar sounds like an old sci-fi soundtrack melting in slow motion.
Super versatile dirt pedal. Can get some pretty straight ahead usable tones or flow into some synth like fuzz. The gate option alone has made this a ton of fun to explore and play with. I've been using it on my bass of late and it's just a fun box of tricks. Looking forward to many more hours exploring this one.
I know. Powerful claim.
But I buy, sell, and trade a whole lot of pedals in my near mad quest to perfectly outfit my sound lab for what I do, and...
...this reverb will never get sold or traded away.
Simply, it's different. And better. And more nuanced. And significantly more textured, ethereal, atmospheric, and just plain useful. Anymore, reverbs and delays I end up adoring and keeping invariably have some element of randomness to them, and Seafarer is no exception...
...a perfect blend of aesthetics (yep, they matter to me), build quality, clever labeling, elaborate control scheme (but no menu diving), remarkably rich gain circuit, incredible LFO and modulation, and... probably THE best ramping swell function I've yet heard in a pedal.
Honestly, the kind of pedal where I feel like I got the far better end of the deal for the price.
If you're a reverb freak, well... you're remiss without this one, mate.
I have a ton of pedals and 80s rack units, the Rosetones is totally unlike anything else I own. It falls into one of my favorite categories, effects where you can play the pedal like an instrument. I bought it primarily for guitar, but I love it on my synths so much it's been primarily used as a synth effect. It takes the mono fatness of my SH-2 and turns it into a lush, stereo, beautiful foundation for a song. I've also used on vocals, which is really interesting.
This is my 7th ezhi&aka pedal, and it might be the ezhiest of them all.
I ran it straight into my Harmony amp at first. At the most basic level, it's a delay with modulation, lfo filters, and 'drone' (reverb/noise). But there are 18 knobs, 6 buttons, 4 switches, and 4 FSR pads. So this thing is anything but basic. It practically begs to be part of a loop, where you can play the pedal. And like all Alexey's pedals, it's a work of art.
After about 20 minutes running it mono I put it on the wet/dry/wet board. I had it on the wet side, with only a touch of chorus on the Solarfaze at the end of the chain to give it stereo separation. The Moomindrone has 3 volume knobs, drone volume, dry volume, and delay volume. So by zeroing the dry volume you can achieve kill-dry.
As part of the wet signal chain, this thing took off. With the center amp keeping things grounded, I could really push the limits of the Moomindrone into chaos through the wet amps. My wife had a ball messing with the settings and the FSR pads while I played a simple Spacemen 3 style riff. It goes from sparkly to complete aural destruction. Combining glitch, LFOs, drone, and some pretty massive delay gives a ton of wall of sound possibilities in one pedal. I have one 'swappable slot' on my wet/dry/wet board, and this is going to occupy that slot for the foreseeable future.
I had been pretty set with my gain section for a while and I know what I like before I discovered all of the EAE pedals. I knew what my ears were telling me, but told myself could this actually be better than what I have?
To make a long story short, oh yeah
The Longsword is the best OD/Distortion Iโve ever played and fits with so many other pedals and most importantly in a mix. Canโt recommend highly enough!
Really loving the Seafarer. The reverb sounds great, and the grit is a really nice addition. it gives it a lot of character without feeling like itโs just thrown in there.
The modulation is probably my favorite part. It can be really subtle and atmospheric, but you can also crank it and get completely insane sounds.
The graphics and layout are just beautiful. It looks great on the board and the controls are easy to get around. I have mine running vertical on my board.
This reverb is excellent for lofi textures. Between the drive, random tremolo, LFO, low pass filter, and chorus, you can build amazing ambient soundscapes. Definitely a keeper for me!
Great pedal, best spinner Iโve got, and doesnโt weigh 200 lbs
Sound Shoppe NYC is the best place to buy pedals !
My favorite
Highly recommended
