The Speaker Cranker is an all discrete dirt enhancement device designed to give your amp some grit and a slight boost without drastically changing the character or tone of your set up. It's perfect for those that don't like to fiddle with pesky controls yet want to add a little tube-like breakup or enhance an already over driven amp (or pedal) to give it some extra crunch without over loading the preamp. The single "More" control allows you choose the amount of break up you desire. Just like you would with a tube amp, back it off to thin out the sound and clean it up or crank it up for a fuller sound with a bit of compression. The Earthquaker Devices Speaker Cranker boost is the latest addition to the Earthquaker Devices pedal lineup. The Speaker Cranker is a dirty boost, designed to push an amp or pedal into breakup or compression without adding much of its own character. The Earthquaker Devices Speaker Cranker is hand built in Akron, Ohio and housed in a lovely, screen printed, lemony yellow enclosure.

The Bit Commander is a monophonic analog guitar synthesizer with four octaves of vintage square wave synth tones. It's no-nonsense interface makes it easy to add or subtract octaves to create a wide variety of sounds without having to dial in envelopes or oscillators. Ripping sub-octave thump, pulsing octave down, a lightly squared base tone and a swelling transformer based octave up all join together to make a single guitar sound like an army of olde tyme synths. Like all analog octave effects, there are some basic rules to follow that will get you the most enjoyment from your Bit Commander. Use the neck pickup and play single notes. The best tracking occurs from the 7th fret up on all the strings. Below the 7th will still track but there will be occasional glitches and stutters. The lower the note, the harder it is for the Bit Commander to register. The use of Bass and lower registers on keyboards will yield unexpected, sometimes pleasing, sometimes disgusting results. These are not mistakes or flaws, it is the nature of analog octaves.

Welcome to the Rainbow Machine, in all it's synthetic glory! This one is for experimenters, adventurists and noisemakers. Totally not for purists and/or tone hounds, there are no "natural sounds" that will come from this box. It takes modern DSP and uses it as a tool of future past to create real time pitch shifting using digital oscillators. The sound is much different than most modern day pitch shifting devices. It was imagineered to be wild and out of control and slightly imperfect while still tracking up and down the guitar neck without glitching out. A cold digital beast made to pretend it has feelings. It will do basic polyphonic harmonies from a 4th down through a 3rd up and every atonal pitch in between. You may add in an accompanying octave to the harmony by bringing up the Secondary function control. You can take it way beyond and open up your third eye by bringing in the Magic. The Magic is the heart of the Rainbow Machine. In conjunction with the Tracking control, the Magic creates wild pitch take offs and descend's, chaos chorusing, shrieks, pixie trails and wealth of other general mayhem inducing noises. The pitch can be controled by an external expression pedal for extra fun! The Rainbow Machine can be used on bass, keys, vocals or anything else you can dream up!

The Earthquaker Devices Hoof Fuzz Pedal is a stunning fuzz box. Earthquaker Devices has really hit the nail on the head with this pedal. Featuring a germanium/silicon hybrid layout that is loosely modeled after an old army green Russian Big Muff only tighter and cleaner, the Hoof Fuzz is a great choice if you are looking for a compact pedal board-friendly fuzz box that can make your current guitar amp combo sing with fuzzy goodness.. The knob layout of the Hoof Fuzz is pretty simple, featuring Tone, Fuzz, Level and the newly added Shift knobs. The Shift knob controls the frequency response of the tone control. Essentially, when the shift is rotated clockwise on the EarthQuaker Devices Hoof Fuzz Pedal, it give you that scooped mids metal tone and when spun the other way, the mids return. The shift knob also has a center detente at 12 o'clock which, when centered, makes this version of the Hoof Fuzz sound like the old version that lacked the Shift knob. With a range of fuzz sound that can take you anywhere from Smashing Pumpkins to Sonic Youth and back, the EarthQuaker Devices Hoof Fuzz Pedal is a winner.

The Weight knob allows the user to change the saturation levels, bass response and overall tone. The White Light is designed to work equally well with both humbuckers and single coils.

The EarthQuaker Devices Hummingbird II Pedal is, at heart, loosely based on the Vox Repeat Percussion pedal with modern touches any guitar player would appreciate like quieter operation, more controls to alter the tone and increased "chop" to the tremolo. Capable of producing square wave tremolo sounds with vintage synth style oscillation, the Hummingbird II is sonic treat for boutique pedal fans looking something completely original. With the EarthQuaker Devices Hummingbird II Pedal it is easy to get great sounds. You are in total control with knobs that include Depth (Amount of Volume Modulation), Rate (Speed of the Low Frequency Oscillation), Level and a Mode switch that expands the range of the Rate knob. The Depth and Level controls are new improvements that make this updated Hummingbird II a more versatile pedal. Capable of tremolo sounds ranging from subtle pulsing to full on rapid fire with octave effects similar to a ring modulator, the EarthQuaker Devices Hummingbird II Pedal is one of those effects that require the user to play with it and find a his sound. It's in there!

We have a new device all set to ship, the "Dispatch Master" delay & reverb! It was awarded the Editor's Pick at NAMM by Premier Guitar, write ups in NAMM coverage by Harmony Central, Guitar Player and What's That Dude Play and LOADS of direct interest after it hit the web. Needless to say, we are very excited for this release! Brief Description The Dispatch Master is a digital delay and reverb unit with an all analog direct signal path and true bypass switching. It is capable of producing nearly 2 seconds of delay time with near-infinite repeats with no oscillation and a cavernous reverb. Both effects can be run separately or in unison.

The Sea Machine is a chorus pedal with ultimate control over parameters rarely, if ever, seen in a chorus before. A hybrid of digital and analog circuitry with a slightly extended delay time allows it to really stand out and shimmer. Subtle warble, classic Leslie, sea sick pitch bends, strangled aliens, stunted arpeggiations... there is something for everyone in the Sea Machine. Designed to work well following fuzz, distortion or overdrive without getting muddy, loss of volume or breaking up (the Sea Machine has excellent headroom at both 9 & 12 volts). When engaged, the transparent buffer leaves the all analog dry signal unaltered and crystal clear. It can be powered from 9-12v DC, higher voltage yields a more intense modulation, slightly longer delay time with more chime and dimension. The Sea Machine is true bypass and made by human hands with the highest quality parts in effervescent Akron Ohio!

The EarthQuaker Devices Dirt Transmitter Pedal is designed for the fuzz pedal fan who wants it all. It features a dual transistor setup for the fuzz tone we all look for. Built with only the finest parts, the EarthQuaker Devices Dirt Transmitter Pedal is almost silent when in engaged and completely quiet when disengaged thanks for the true bypass switch. The EarthQuaker Devices Dirt Transmitter Pedal has an unbelievable range of tones lurking within it's industrial metal case. The key to the sound is the Bias control which controls the voltage being sent to the transistors. It allows the Dirt Transmitter to have a cool gated style fuzz when twisted counter clockwise and when turned back the other way the fuzz returns to normal. The transistors become properly biased at around 2 O'Clock. Add to that a Tone knob that is essentially a bass cut, and you begin to realize the power that is the EarthQuaker Devices Dirt Transmitter Pedal.
