WaterFall

WaterFall

Product Overview

Smooth, sweet vintage-sounding Chorus, featuring the original NOS Panasonic chips MN3101 and MN3007 !

It also features 2 switches for 2 extra sounds : deeper more contemporary sounding chorus and a deranged vibrato sound !

It features an internal trimmer which allows you to adjust the maximum speed of the pedal, in order to achieve even more intense "watery" sounds !

Nels Cline was shocked that he liked the Waterfall ! He hates Chorus pedals and said that we should rename it !  "Don't call it a chorus" Nels Cline.

"I have only used chorus effects in the past to replicate a leslie. The Waterfall chorus is a textural dynamo. I use it to create moist soundscapes that warble and flow at the same time. You step on it and the 'wow' factor is engaged." Greg Koch

"...the Waterfall is the best sounding chorus pedal I have heard...". Julien Kasper

"...it is a beautiful way to open your sound and your mind. Within the first minute of plugging in I was lost on a journey through my inner space. There were beautiful colours and tiny pink sea horses. Then I played with the switches, the sea sick switches! ". Neal Bond
