Player's Perspective

The Depths is Earthquaker Device's take on the classic optical vibe circuit. It creates pulses in your tone, which delivers a three-dimensional swirling sound. What sets The Depths apart is how natural and musical it is. We come across a lot of effects pedals in this realm, but most of them have a kind of mad-circus-meets-lurching-washing-machine type of sound. The Depths creates bizarre, unconventional sounds, but they never sound gaudy or unusable. Tonally, the depths warms things up a touch with a 9V as the power supply, and if you use an 18V, you'll get a stiffer sound with more headroom. The Level knob can compensate for any volume loss associated with effects, or it can act as a boost. One o'clock is unity; anything over that is boost. The Depths is designs for all instruments, not just guitar.

This is a rich toned and easily controlled pedal that can add to your sound in strange yet beautiful ways. Grab this one today and let it get used to your pedalboard.

Specs

  • Earthquaker Devices The Depths
  • Optical Vibe
  • Optimized for All Instruments
  • Voice - Dials in the overall sound. Turn it clockwise for a fuller sound with more lows, bring it back for a thinner, more midrange focused tone.
  • Throb - This controls the low end pulse. It may not be immediately evident on the bridge pickup, but switch to the neck or add some dirt and it comes alive. All the way up for more throb, dial it back for less. Works best when the “Voice” is set to a warmer tone.
  • Intensity - This controls how subtle or intense the overall effect is. Counter clockwise from noon are the more subtle, classic sounds. Clockwise from noon are the more drastic and intense sounds.
  • Rate - Controls the speed of the effect. Counterclockwise for slow, clockwise for fast.
  • Level - Controls the volume of the effect. Unity is around 1 O’clock, everything above that is boost.
