MXR Layers Harmonic Sustain Pedal
Cascading soundscapes abound with the MXR Layers. This pedal powerhouse delivers a suite of multidimensional stereo shaping that fuses versatile expression with aural exploration. Beneath the iconic MXR form factor resides an unprecedentedly diverse array of sonic contouring capabilities, conjuring up to three lush layers of harmonic orchestration, each of which can be generated or deleted on the fly. Users have immediately noted the MXR Layers pedal’s flexibility, not just for its use across multiple instruments, but also in its stereo output options and external control compatibility. Shimmering choruses and robust reverbs collide with sonorous sustain and a deluge of delay, augmented by the onboard sub-octave generator that can be adjusted across multiple transposition modes, including a crossover option, lending immense support to the low end by isolating lower frequencies. With its malleable attack and decay parameters, alongside dynamic trigger thresholds, activating evocative stereo washes and frozen pads is possible with pick attack alone or through the multifunction footswitch. Conversely, you can put the two together, allowing you to craft complex, reactive sound-stacking walls of noise or mind-melting solos that are undergirded by cavernous sub-octave support. No matter your style, the MXR Layers pedal unequivocally expands your constellation of multidimensional composition possibilities.
Features:
- Multitudes of sustain, delay, chorus, reverb, and tremolo varieties collide for a deeply customizable multi-effects pedal
- Selectable stereo and mono operation modes provide extensive stereo-field possibilities across other instruments
- Up to 3 simultaneous layers of sustain and a dedicated sub-octave function ensure vast orchestration potential
- Malleable layering options enable you to split sub-octave designations and single-layer mode for evocative full-spectrum sound stacking
- State-of-the-art circuitry supplies detailed, high-fidelity sustain that faithfully mimics physical string resonance properties for natural layering and intuitive use
- Wide-ranging, detailed attack and delay parameters allow for versatile space shaping and temporal texturizing
- Precise trigger values let you automatically generate and remove layers through the intensity of your pick attack, leading to immensely reactive performance potential
- Flexible footswitch usage lets you painlessly manage layers in any studio, stage, desktop, or tabletop configurations
- External interfacing options via CTR jack lets you blend across 2 setting configurations, control individual parameters, or customize your tactile needs
- Advanced parameter for further expand sonic contouring and texturization opportunities
