With advanced controls, full MIDI integration, and expression pedal compatibility, the Elipse is designed for guitars, bass, synthesizers, vocals, and vintage keyboards.


Powered by Kernom’s patented Analog Morphing Core technology, the Kernom ELIPSE isn’t just another modulation pedal.

The addition of the SWIRL control introduces a unique phaser-blend for rich, multidimensional textures.
