Promo 🌟 Empire Guitars EarthQuaker Devices Aqueduct *Free Shipping In The USA* ❤️

Aqueduct™ is a vintage-inspired pitch vibrato with eight modulation
modes delivering synth-like sonar pulses, touch-sensitive frequency
modulation, gentle rolling pitch-wobbles, steady kosmische pulsations,
rapid trills, slimy sonic squiggles, whammy bar wiggles, pitch bends,
pseudo-flange, and anything else your pitch-warped brain can picture in
your murky mind’s eye.

Controls

The controls are simple. Rate (1) adjusts the LFO speed which controls how quickly the pitch rises and falls. Depth (2) controls the LFO amplitude, adjusting the intensity of the vibrato effect. The rotary switch labeled Mode (3)
selects between one of eight LFO waveshape and envelope combinations
which drastically alter the character of the modulation and make
Aqueduct adaptable to nearly any musical situation.

Modes

• Sine:
  The smoothest and most subtle of all waveforms, sine waves are most
  commonly associated with classic amp-like vibrato. Plug in, turn on, and
  commence the Chooglin’.
• Triangle: Triangle waves have a sharper rise and fall than sine waves with a more pronounced pitch bend at the peak of each LFO cycle.
• Ramp:
  Like a triangle wave with a twist. The Ramp waveform has a sharp sonar
  pulse followed by a rapid downward slope with a synthesizer-like sustain
  and release. This is where things start to get a little weird.
• Square:
  Square waves are the most rigid and abrupt of the waveforms. Rather
  than gliding smoothly between pitches, square waves produce an instant
  on-or-off transition between notes. Use this mode for trills when you
  get tired of doing hammer-ons and pull-offs.
• Random: This
  waveform isn’t a waveform at all as much as it’s a drunken master of
  modulation who slurs your notes into an unpredictable assortment of
  greasy pitch-bends before disappearing at last call and leaving you
  stuck with the tab. It has a “warped record” effect at low Depth
  settings and becomes sloppier and more randomized as you increase the
  Depth control.
• Env D: This is
  Envelope-Controlled Depth mode. The waveshape is set to a sine wave, the
  speed of which may be adjusted using the Rate control. The Depth
  control sets the sensitivity of the envelope – the point at which the
  effect kicks in as you play. In this mode, your pick attack sets the
  intensity of the modulation. The harder you dig in, the more pronounced
  the effect. Try it during your next motorik jam.

• Env R:
  This is Envelope-Controlled Rate mode. In this mode, the input level
  (i.e. pick attack) controls the LFO rate. The LFO uses a sine waveshape.
  Play harder for faster modulation or lay low for slower modulation
  speeds. The Rate control adjusts the sensitivity of the envelope. Depth
  selects the LFO intensity.
• Env P: This is
  Envelope-Controlled Pitch mode, which we’ve lovingly nicknamed “The My
  Bloody Valentine setting.” If your instrument doesn’t have a tremolo
  bar, it does now. In this mode, the LFO is set to a sine waveshape, and
  frequency modulation is controlled by the dynamics of your pick attack
  and not the LFO. Do yourself a favor and try this one with
  Flexi-Switching™.
  • Depth sets the wet/dry mix. This is the only
    mode that contains a wet/dry mix and may be set to taste to create
    touch-sensitive dynamic vibrato, chorus, flanger, or tactile pitch
    drops. Full counterclockwise is all dry, full clockwise is all wet. With
    this control set to noon you will get a 50/50 mix with a small amount
    of phase cancellation.
  • Rate sets the sensitivity and overall range of the pitch bend.
