Afterneath V3 Enhanced Otherworldly Reverberation Machine

To celebrate the release of EarthQuaker Devices upcoming Afterneath Retrospective, they have created an extra special custom color Afterneath v3 pedal and Afterneath Eurorack Module available for a limited time only. The Afterneath Retrospective marks the fourth chapter in EQD's pedal documentary series, taking a deep and often hilarious dive into how some of their top-selling pedals came into existence. EarthQuaker Devices has taken everything that was great about the original Afterneath and made it even better: 9 new Modes, CV/expression pedal control over the Drag parameter, Trails/No Trails Switching, helping to push the already unflappable Afterneath into a whole new realm. The Afterneath V3 sounds a lot like it looks - a wizard bursting forth from ethereal cave and ready for the ambient battle. You are the wizard (or sorceress, if you prefer) and the cave is your instrument’s signal, vast, expansive and magical. Do you go inside? Roll a D20 to proceed!

Main Features

  • Special Custom Edition of the Afterneath V3
  • In Celebration of the Afterneath Retrospective documentary
  • Available for a limited time only
  • Same otherworldly reverb algorithm built from an adjustable cluster of short delays
  • Ranges from scattered individual delays to an immersive wash of atmospheric reverb

 

New control over the Drag parameter with 9 unique modes of user-selectable sweep. These new modes of operation push the already unflappable Afterneath into a whole new realm:

1. Unquantized: Smooth, unquantized response over the operating range

2. Unquantized with Slew: Smooth, unquantized response over the entire operating range, but with a musical slew that is reminiscent of turning the varispeed knob on a vintage British tape delay. The “Drag” will lag behind the knob or cv changes, but then quickly catch up

3. Unquantized Volt/Octave: Smooth and unquantized, yet scaled to align with the 1v/octave curve to allow melodic modulation of audio in the buffer, or control the frequency of self-oscillation like a voltage-controlled oscillator

4. Chromatic Scale: Quantized 1v/octave to the chromatic scale

5. Major Scale: Quantized 1v/octave to the major scale
 6. Minor Scale: Quantized 1v/octave to the minor scale


7. Pentatonic Scale: Quantized 1v/octave to the pentatonic scale


8. Octaves & Fifths: Quantized 1v/octave to omit all but octaves and fifths
9. Octaves: Quantized 1v/octave to omit all but octaves • Flexi-Switch™ - allows for momentary and latching-style operation from a single footswitch

  • Silent soft-touch switching with True Bypass
  • Tails/No Tails switching • Voltage or expression pedal control jack for the Drag parameter
  • All analog dry signal path and a totally digital effect signal path
  • Powered by regular 9 V DC PSU (centre -, 2.1 mm, ~100 mA current draw)

 

Once inside, a reflection of light from an unknown source catches your eye, and you notice a bizarre sheen on the walls of the cave. You timidly inch closer to the walls of the cave. Placing your hand gently on the cavern wall, you feel the rock move. The cave is alive! Alarmed, you emit a loud gasp, which reverberates throughout the subterranean landscape.

Upon further listening, it appears as though the reverberations of your voice are in fact a swarm of short digital delays which may be used to create wild and cavernous reverbs, or scattered, short, rhythmic delays with bizarre characteristics. Take a moment to consider your Intelligence and Wisdom scores, as well as your spell inventory before proceeding further. You have seven spells at your disposal… Will you cast “Length,” which controls the decay length of the reverb? What about “Diffuse,” which adjusts the spread of the reverb? With your wand (or just the knob) turned counter-clockwise, the reverb is sharper with more attack, resulting in a stuttering sputter of individual early reflections. Clockwise casts a washy, more ambient-sounding hex.

Overwhelmed by fear, you hastily cast “Dampen!” As you shout the incantation, you notice that a counter-clockwise variation of this spell results in brighter tones, while as you rotate your wand clockwise; you hear darker tones with a mellower top-end. It’s almost as if your magic changes the hardness of the cavern walls, and thus the tonal characteristics of the reverb!

Elsewhere in your book of magic is “Drag,” which separates the individual digital delay lines, literally dragging them through the very fabric of time and space towards an unknown event horizon from which they may never return. Clockwise “Drag” positions will gather the delay lines close together for a more reverb-like effect. Turn the “Drag” counter-clockwise and the delay lines will begin to pull apart for a scattered ping-pong delay effect. The Drag can be put under voltage or expression control using the “EXP” jack located on the side and operates in 9 different modes which are selected by the small “Mode” control. These modes are: Unquantized, Unquantized with slew, Unquantized volt/octave, Chromatic scale, Major scale, Minor scale, Pentatonic scale, Octaves & fifths and Octaves.

These modes drastically change the way the Drag control functions, especially while using an expression control or CV. The “Reflect” alters the depth of the cave, and with it the regeneration of the reverb. This acts as a feedback control and will self-oscillate if cast by a high-level user. Turn clockwise for more wash and echoes, counter-clockwise for less. Finally, the “Mix” alters the alchemical balance between the input signal and the effect. The Afterneath V3 does not go fully wet but does lower the level of the input signal as you raise this control to create the appearance of a fully wet reverb. The Afterneath V3 features a completely analog dry signal path, totally digital delay path, buffered bypass with Flexi Switch Technology and a tails/no tails option on bypass. Each and every Afterneath V3 is built by a mix of robots and human beans in the torch-lit cave community of Akron, Ohio.
