Woburn, MA (January 22, 2013) – In February 2013 Source Audio will release the Soundblox 2 Orbital Modulator. This 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 Soundblox 2 form factor provides rack-mount power is a pedalboard friendly cast aluminum housing with 2 user presets, true or buffered bypass, and MIDI capabilities.
The Orbital Modulator delivers a vast collection of effect 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. The pedal's modulation can be controlled 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.
The Orbital Mod will cost approximately $169.
