Soundblox 2 Orbital Modulator
This product has been discontinued. If you dig the sounds of the Orbital Modulator, check out our One Series family of modulation effects: the Lunar Phaser, Gemini Chorus, and Mercury Flanger. Any modulation sound can be written and burned to any of these modulation pedals.
The Orbital Modulator is a super-compact, durable, and highly flexible multi-effects pedal with a dynamic collection of precision-engineered phaser, flanger, chorus, and tremolo effects. The Orbital's twelve effect types, nine adjustable parameters, plus internal or external modulation control were designed to send your tone into sonic orbit.
The Official Demo Video
The Orbital Modulator’s rack-mount power delivers endless modulation possibilities including multi-voiced choruses, through zero flange, rotary speaker simulation, variable notch phasers and much more. Its nine adjustable parameters include DEPTH, FEEDBACK, DELAY, FREQUENCY, VOLUME, LoRETAIN, TREMOLO, MIX, and SPEED. Control modulation either internally or externally: sine and square wave LFO plus forward and reverse Envelope Followers offer vibrant internal modulation, while the pedal’s compatibility with MIDI control signals, the Source Audio Dual Expression Pedal, or any of our Hot Hand motion sensor rings provides precise external control. Once you’ve dialed in the perfect sound, save it one of two user presets easily recalled via two footswitches.
