Overview
The Electro-Harmonix Super Pulsar is a versatile stereo tap tremolo pedal that offers musicians extensive control over their tremolo effects. With adjustable sine, triangle, and pulse waveforms, as well as nine user-modifiable rhythmic patterns, the Super Pulsar enables the creation of intricate and dynamic soundscapes.
Its analog signal path ensures rich, warm tones, while digital controls provide precision and flexibility. The pedal features tap tempo functionality, allowing synchronization with your playing, and the ability to save and recall up to eight customized presets for seamless performance transitions. Expression pedal input further enhances real-time modulation over parameters such as rate, depth, shape, phase, or volume, making the Super Pulsar a powerful tool for both live and studio settings.
