Anasounds Element is a pedal that takes back the very essence of the analogue reverb, which is obtained by physically stimulating springs tanks. Simply. No artificials. No calculations. From beautiful mechanical coupled to analog signal processing.
It is always a standard pedal, it is the same size as all our other pedals. You scratch it (or not) on the pedalboard. It always has an input jack, an output jack and a 9V power jack. So far, nothing new! What’s more? There’s a mini jack cable to plug on the back of the pedal. Then, it will be connected to the box full of springs (called a tank) through RCA connectors.
This tank is indispensable because it is the one that allows to generate an analog effect of Reverb. Compared from other Spring Reverb that use huge boxes, the tank is detached from the pedal, and connected by a cable. Then the tank can be hidden under the pedalboard or kept on top of the board, this is up to you! Self-drilling screws are supplied with the tank to help you attach the tank to the desired location on the pedalboard.
There are 3 sizes of tanks: Le Bon, is the smallest of them, small in size but full of resources, it is amply sufficient for guitar and will save room to the point of leaving it scratched on top of the pedalboard, while admiring the beauty of moving springs! La Brute, well, that’s the middle ground! Big enough to offer lot of shpouing and make most of musicians crazy. Its average size makes it possible to fit easily under a pedalboard, right next to the pedal power supply block or on the keyboard table. It provides much more harmonics than its friend Le Bon. Le Truand, is simply out of competition! It’s the one that offers the richest sound!
