Afterneath v2
The Afterneath v2 is a truly otherworldly reverberator from the wizards at EarthQuaker Devices. Step into a vast, magical cave where the very walls come alive, reflecting and distorting your guitar's signal in captivating ways. At the heart of the Afterneath lies a swarm of short digital delays that can be sculpted into lush, cavernous reverbs or rhythmic, scatter-shot delay textures. The six intuitive controls let you shape the reverb's length, diffusion, damping, and even the "hardness" of the cavern walls, altering the tonal character. Dial in the "Drag" control to spread the individual delay lines apart, creating a mesmerizing ping-pong effect. Crank up the "Reflect" control and the Afterneath will begin to self-oscillate, generating ethereal, ever-evolving pads that seem to emerge from the ether. And with the "Mix" control, you can blend the reverb seamlessly with your dry signal, or push it fully into the realm of ambient dreamscapes. Handcrafted in the Gelatinous Cube of Akron, Ohio, the Afterneath v2 is a true-bypass pedal that transports your guitar into a fantastical sonic realm. Beloved by shoegaze and post-rock artists for its ability to conjure vast, otherworldly textures, this is a reverb that demands to be explored.
