EarthQuaker Devices Avalanche Run V2 Delay and Reverb Pedal in Limited Edition Aurora Borealis

Following the success of the 2001 - A Space Odyssey edition of the Astral Destiny, Earthquaker Devices decided to continue the celestial theme, and decorate everyone’s favorite stereo reverb and delay with the Northern Lights.The EarthQuaker Devices Avalanche Run V2 Delay and Reverb Pedal is a dreamy stereosonic exploratory multi-tool that includes up to 2 seconds of delay time, reverse delay, tap tempo with subdivision control, switchable true bypass or buffered bypass with 5 different tail lengths (including a sound-on-sound style lo-fi looping mode) and an assignable expression control that maps the expression jack to a control of your choice, including the toggle. The delay section allows tweaking from tape emulation to bucket brigade styles with a twist of the wide-range Tone control. The cavernous, plate-style reverb has just a touch of modulation similar to the one found in the precious Dispatch Master only more lush with an adjustable Decay. Otherworldly reverse delay and dynamic swelling reverb settings are accessible through a 3-way toggle switch. And that’s just the beginning.

Time

This controls the delay time and goes from 0ms to just under 2000ms.

Repeats

Controls the regeneration of the delay, from zero repeats to near infinite.

Tone

Controls the tone for the delay line only. Roll off highs to the left, roll off lows to the right and get a flat response in the middle.

Mix

This the volume control for the delay line. This blends in the wet with dry until 1 o’clock, 1 o’clock to 3 o’clock boosts the wet signal over the dry and 3 o’clock up brings down dry until it is fully wet when all the way up.

Expression Jack Assign Switch

Use this switch to map the expression jack to one of the assigned controls.

Decay

This controls the reverb decay length.

R Mix

R Mix controls the reverb mix.

Time

This takes over for the delay time control and is DRASTICALLY different than the interface control. Using the expression pedal to control the time will give you all kinds of wild effects that cannot be achieved by turning the knob.

Repeats

This controls the delay repeats.

D Mix

D Mix controls the delay mix.

Toggle

This takes over for the toggle switch and will cross fade from forward delay in heel down position to reverse delay in toe down position.

Ratio Selector Switch

Selects delay subdivisions when time is set by the ‘Tap’ switch. 1 by 1 for quarter note, 3 by 4 for dotted 8th, 2 by 3 for quarter note triplet, 1 by 2 for 8th note, 1 by 3 for 8th note triplet, 1 by 4 for 16th note.
