Cosmodio Launches the Gravity Well

Cosmodio Launches the Gravity Well

The second release from Cosmodio is a first-of-its-kind modulation effect that features an Expression Pedal/Tap Tempo input for dynamically controlling the LFO’s speed or depth mid-performance.


The Gravity Well is a dual-sided pedal featuring a tremolo on one side and a wavefolder on the other. When both circuits are active a third effect emerges – a refractor – a first-of-its-kind modulation effect produced by integrating the tremolo and wavefolder to rhythmically and fluidly warp and unwarp your signal, producing a dazzling variety of never-before-heard sounds and textures.

The pedal’s five-knob control set includes wavefolder Volume; wavefolder Gain (for controlling the amount of signal folding); modulation Speed and Depth; and a Waveform control to select between 8 LFO shapes that include classic shapes as well as randomized movements.

The Gravity Well’s capabilities are expanded by three toggle switches:

  • “Flow” determines the signal flow when both sides are active. Tremolo into wavefolder or wavefolder into tremolo, dramatically changing the effects’ interactions and the sonic result.
  • “Voice” selects between three different output voices of the wavefolder: full wavefolding, focused wavefolding, or a wavefolder and clean signal mix.
  • “Tone” allows you to select a bright, dark, or balanced output tone of the wavefolder.

The Gravity Well encompasses familiar and exotic sonic territory, creating a pedal that’s both thrilling and approachable. Its carefully spaced control layout is optimized for easy spontaneous adjustments. Its top-mounted input, output, and power jacks ensure an efficient footprint on a pedalboard or desktop. It features faceplate artwork by accomplished pop-artist GOLDSUIT.

Gravity Well features include:

  • Selectable true bypass or buffered bypass switching
  • 9-volt operation via external power supply - no battery compartment
  • Built in US
  • Internal DIP switch controls for customizing expression pedal function, tremolo volume, and tone switch range.

The Gravity Well carries a $279 street price. It is available for pre-order at the https://www.cosmod.io/ website. It will fully launch and start shipping on November 19.
