Ahoy! Welcome to your new Depths Optical Vibe Machine! The Depths is our take on the classic optical vibe circuit. Now you can swab the decks with the same lush, pulsating, three-dimensional swirling sound you know and love, with some modern accouterments for all you land-lubbers out there. The Depths is optimized for use with all kinds of instruments, pickups, and to play well with dirt, so nobodys left waiting on shore. If its got a dz output, plug it in and get deep! In addition to the classic vibe controls, the Depths features unique controls for "Voice" and "Throb". The "Voice" control adjusts the midrange focus of the Depths, which is perfect for tailoring the effect to your particular instrument. Clockwise, youll hear a fuller sound with a low-end focus. Counter-clockwise, youll hear a thinner, spikier sound with a forward upper-midrange bite. The "Throb" knob adds a hefty subharmonic low-end pulse to the vibrato signal, which is especially useful on synthesizers and the bass guitar. It sounds great with a little bit of dirt on the neck pickup of a guitar, too! This works best with the "Voice" turned counter-clockwise for a warmer tone. The Depths "Intensity" and "Rate" controls are dialed in to give you the classic optical vibe sound at more modest settings, but dive in deeper and youll find anything from a smooth ultra-slow warble to sharp, speedy bursts! Also, the "Level control" has tons of output above unity on tap to combat the perceived volume loss of most vibe pedals, so your tone is always above water. And, if 9v isnt enough to keep you afloat, the Depths may be powered at 18v for a stiffer tone with more headroom and sparkle.
