EARTHQUAKER DEVICES Astral Destiny

Astral Destiny is a compact pedal effect that combines reverb and octaver effects with added modulation (chorus effect). It presents a bottomless well of dreamy ambient surfaces and soundscapes that stand out in a wide range of musical styles. In total, it offers eight reverb effect types with eight editable presets, the ability to control the parameters of the Length, Depth, Rate, Tone and Mix knobs via an external expression pedal, natural reverb reverb (tails) even after bypassing the effect, a Stretch function that doubles the length of the reverb effect while adding an adjustable pitch bending effect (changing the tuning/debounce), two operating modes (Live Mode/Preset Mode) and other useful features.

List of reverb effect modes:
1. Abyss: big reverb without octave effect
2. Shimmer: adds an upper octave to the reverb's reverberation
3. Sub: adds a lower upper octave to the reverb reverberation
4. Sub Shimmer: harmonizes the reverb reverberation in the upper and lower octave
5. Astral: adds both upper and lower octave in combination with oscillating reverb reverb
6. Ascend: changes/bends the tuning upwards
7. Descend: change/bend the tuning downward
8. Cosmos: adds harmony in the fifth to the oscillating reverb

The pedal operates in buffered bypass mode, i.e. there is an active buffer in the path and the box requires power to pass the signal through. The Tails setting (reverberation of the effect even after the pedal is turned off) can be changed to Full Bypass. A 9V adapter (2.1mm negative center barrel) is required for power supply.
