Stereo Tap Tremolo and More

The ehx Pulsar is back and better than ever, in the electro-harmonix Super Pulsar stereo tap tremolo pedal! With a true stereo signal path, adjustable modulation waveforms, and even nine rhythmic patterns, this does-it-all pedal is a dream come true for the tremolo fanatics at Sweetwater. You've even got creative dynamic control over the effect when you dial in envelope follower modulation to various parameters. From subtle warbling tremolo to choppy gated effects, the ehx Super Pulsar is an amazingly rewarding tremolo pedal to add to your guitar or keyboard rig.

Electro-harmonix Super Pulsar Stereo Tap Tremolo Pedal at a Glance:
  • Wide range of tremolo shapes and rhythmic effects
  • Creative control via expression pedal or CV
  • Volume boost helps you maintain your optimum signal level
Wide range of tremolo shapes and rhythmic effects

Plug your guitar into the ehx Super Pulsar and choose from sine, triangle, and pulse wave shapes to create your ideal tremolo effect. Use identical settings on the left and right channels for classic tremolo effects, or adjust the phase to create stereo motion. You've even got nine rhythmic patterns to play with, and you can even tweak these to create your own patterns and save them for recall later on.

Creative control via expression pedal or CV

Connect a standard expression pedal or CV source to the ehx Super Pulsar, and you've got creative control over a variety of parameters. Modulartion rate, depth, shape, phase, and volume can all be controlled from an external source. Whether you're playing guitar or keyboards, this extra level of control can add an incredible amount of sonic movement and excitement to your performance.

Volume boost helps you maintain your optimum signal level

If you've played as many tremolo pedals as we have at Sweetwater, you know that sometimes your guitar's volume can dip a bit with certain tremolo effects. The ehx Super Pulsar packs a volume boost for that very reason - once you dial in your ideal tremolo sound, adjust the volume boost to maintain your signal level. When the depth control is set to minimum, you can effectively add a 12dB boost with the volume control.

Electro-harmonix Super Pulsar Stereo Tap Tremolo Pedal Features:
  • Analog tremolo pedal with stereo, mono, stereo to mono, and mono to stereo operation
  • Fine-tune the tremolo effect with variable sine, triangle, and pulse wave shapes
  • Nine rhythmic patterns can you can change and save for future recall
  • Connect an expression pedal or CV source for real-time control over effects parameters
  • True Bypass design with mechanical relays maintains your tone and switches silently
  • Adjust the phase to create panning stereo effects
  • Save and recall up to eight of your own custom presets
The ehx Super Pulsar is the tremolo pedal that keeps on giving!

Super pulsar... is super

There IS a learning curve.. but not bad. There's so much you can do for effects, and effects upon effects with this machine alone. There won't be any boredom with it because it seems endless in it's capacity to alter and enhance other effects as well as just a clean amp.

The Tip of the Iceburg

I've had mine for 2 months and only skimmed the surface of it's features. What impresses me most however, is simply the overall tone of the pedal. I was expecting lots of control but the oozing of crystal-clear, botique tone is a pleasant surprise. Without a doubt the best Tremolo pedal I've ever tried. I only wish they would've included, a paper manual. You can get the manual from the EHX site, and I'm all for saving trees, but this thing has so many options it's the one time I'd like a hard copy to sit and read through.

Best vibrato - period.

This pedal is simply fantastic. We all know it's loaded with features and adjustable parameters, but where EHX really set themselves apart is the fact that they supplied sufficient head and foot room in all of these parameters. You can go to full on/off tremolo and have every tempo you could ever want with the twist of one knob or by utilizing the tap tempo. What's missing from this pedal? Serious question, I can't find a flaw with it.

You Need This In Your Life

I'm amazed at how feature-rich this pedal is. In addition to this, it's hyper responsive. Fine-tuned adjustments make pretty significant changes and the impact of those adjustments varies depending on the characteristics of the input signal. This took some getting used to, but I wouldn't have it any other way.
Rated 5/5

Best tremolo ever!

I did tons of research before buying this pedal, and it was mainly just to figure out if any tremolo could outdo the Super Pulsar. They couldn't. 100% analog signal path, but with tap tempo (both internal AND external), the ability to compensate for expected tremolo volume drops, a nearly infinite amount of LFO shapes, envelope followers to control rate and depth, pattern trem, usable as a stereo panner... There's basically no base this effect doesn't cover. One of my favorites is running a regular sine wave with the right channel LFO out of phase by 90 or 270 degrees. Makes it seem like the tremolo is perfectly encircling you.

Best tremolo ever. :)
