EARTHQUAKER GRAND ORBITER REVIEW FULL

Phase/Vibrato: Cuts the dry signal to create a vibe/vibrato effect depending on the setting of the other controls.Rate 1 is slow mode, rate 2 is LFO kill to use the Orbiter as a fixed resonant filter, rate 3 is fast mode. Rate 1,2,3: Changes the range of the speed control.More resonant clockwise, more subtle counter clockwise. Resonance: Controls the regeneration of the phased signal.Higher peak clockwise, lower peak counter clockwise. Sweep: Controls the frequency peak of the sweep.Faster clockwise, slower counter clockwise. In “Vibrato” mode, this acts as a volume control. Clockwise for more intense phasing, counterclockwise for less. Depth: Controls the amount of phase effect mixed with dry signal.This pedal is 100% analog, true bypass and built by entirely by hand in beachy Akron, Ohio. When in “Vibrato” mode, the dry signal is removed and the Depth controls acts as a volume control. You can also use the Grand Orbiter as a true pitch vibrato with the “Phase/Vibrato” switch. The Resonance provides a wide range of control over regeneration and at higher settings adds a more pronounced and resonant tone.

The Sweep control governs the peak frequency of the phased signal’s tone, turned full clockwise the sweep is lively and intense, whereas turning counter clockwise yields a darker, more laid back peak. The Depth control blends the shifted signal in with the dry signal and controls the intensity of the effect. The master Rate control fine tunes the speed of the LFO in each of these modes and the flashing red LED acts as a visual indicator, even when the effect is in bypass mode. It has three way toggle switch to select between the ranges of modulation: Rate 1 is slow sweep mode, Rate 2 kills the LFO and allows you to use the Grand Orbiter as a fixed resonant filter and Rate 3 is fast sweep mode. This pedal is 100% analog, true bypass and built by entirely by hand in beachy Akron, Ohio.The Earthquaker Grand Orbiter Phase Machine V3 is a 4 stage OTA-based phaser with a diverse feature set that can go from stationary and resonant to slow and mellow and on through fast and swirly. The Sweep control controls the peak frequency of the phased signal’s tone, turned full clockwise the sweep is lively and intense, whereas turning counter clockwise gives you a darker, more laid back peak.
