About this pedal

Grand Orbiter is a fully analog, true-bypass, four-stage phaser with a three-way range toggle and separate Sweep, Depth, and Resonance controls, capable of everything from slow, mellow sweeps to fast, resonant swirl. A Phase/Vibrato switch converts it into a true pitch vibrato by removing the dry signal, with the Depth knob then acting as a volume control.
