EarthQuaker Devices – Astral Destiny
The EarthQuaker Devices Astral Destiny welcomes you and your instrument of choice to a vast new world of octave reverberation. Unrelenting, radicalized reverb for the modern world; an array of haunting, unearthly delights and ethereal sonic sorcery designed to take you on a deep journey through both time and space. 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. The 8 reverb modes include a huge reverb with no octave effect (Abyss), reverb with added upper, lower or both octaves to the reverb tail (Shimmer, Sub, Sub Shimmer), added upper and lower octave combined with a regenerating tail (Astral), reverb with upward or downward pitch bending (Ascend, Descend) and reverb with an added regenerating fifth to the reverb tail (Cosmos). All user presets are completely customizable and the expression or CV control can be assigned to all control options. The unearthly Stretch feature doubles the reverb length while adding an adjustable pitch bending effect!
