A Spacious Spectrum of Three Versatile ’verbs
Snappy room reflection, a cavernous hall, and the ethereal wash of plate reverb: EarthQuaker Devices’ Ledges Tri-Dimensional Reverberation pedal arms you with a comprehensive arsenal of immersive echoes. This pedal’s 3-position knob offers a unique spectrum-like configuration of reverb, with each of the three modes starting where the previous mode began — Room’s longest decay is Hall’s mildest setting, while Hall’s most extreme tail forms the beginnings of Plate. It’s an exceptionally intuitive setup that ensures each of the three echoes has a distinctive voice and sonic purpose. Once you’ve finished tweaking your preferred setting using the Length/Damping/Mix controls, the Ledges also sports a powerful preset section with six different slots to recall your custom sonic creations. A user-assignable expression input rounds out the pedal, allowing for dynamic in-the-moment sonic sweeps. For the guitarist who routinely traverses between reverb’s resonant extremities, EarthQuaker Devices’ Ledges is a truly must-have echo box.

Comprehensively covers the entire reverb spectrum
Don’t be fooled by the Ledges’ lofty title: this “Tri-Dimensional Reverberation Machine” contains the celestial ambience its name implies. However, its three diverse reverb settings also perfectly cover your typical tried-and-true echo applications. From a short, sweet Room reverb to a more moderate-length Hall position and the positively cavernous Plate mode, the Ledges is ready to tackle almost any sonic situation. Moreover, Sweetwater guitarists find dialing in the length of your dream ’verb is a breeze thanks to this pedal’s unique spectrum-like design. What does that mean? Each reverb’s longest tail serves as the starting point for the successive reverb’s beginning decay, meaning that Room’s maxed-out intensity represents the starting point of Hall. Meanwhile, the end of Hall’s medium-length echo starts the initial length of Plate.
Extensive preset and expression controls
Considering the Ledges’ trio of reverbs take you from a subtle small-room reflection to an immersive wash of nearly endless ambience, it’s all but guaranteed you’ll find a few favorite sounds between those two extremes. When you do, the Ledges sports a robust preset section that allows you to save up to six patches for instant recall later. Moreover, the Ledges boasts an expression control input for plenty of in-the-moment experimentation onstage. You can assign your expression pedal to any of the Ledges’ three parameters (Length/Damping/Mix), and your chosen parameter even carries over into your respective preset slot.
