AmpliTube Morley Collection
The Morley Software Suite by IK Multimedia instantly adds three iconic Morley footpedals to your AmpliTube library: the Contour Wah, the Power Wah Fuzz, and the EVO-1 Oil Can Delay. Each model boasts responsive fidelity, and Morley certified them to demonstrate the manufacturer’s complete confidence in the results. The Contour Wah pedal model packs the range and flexibility to cover virtually any style of music, and it sounds phenomenal on bass, too! Contour and Level controls tweak the wah’s high-frequency content and overall character, and there’s an adjustable delay for thickening your sound. The model notably includes Morley’s auto-off feature, and it’s an invaluable tool for dramatic transitions, entrances, and exits. The second wah models a Power Wah Fuzz with daring combinations of wah and warm, fuzzy ’70s-style saturation. You can adjust the Power Wah’s intensity and tone or use the wah and fuzz as separate effects. Lastly, an EVO-1 Oil Can Delay model brings eccentric delay repeats with a sound that played a huge role in Morley’s founding as a company. The hardware EVO-1 uniquely improvises delay repeats via a motorized “oil can” drum containing a small amount of oil. The oil’s viscous movement generates unique delay patterns with a warm, warbly character that’s one-of-a-kind. IK Multimedia’s EVO-1 model captures all the hardware’s quirks, and the resulting sounds are perfect for increasing the analog warmth of tracks that sound a bit flat or sterile.
Features:
- Expands AmpliTube software with certified models of 3 famous Morley footpedals
- Contour Wah: versatile character and customization options with stellar modern fidelity
- Power Wah Fuzz: a vintage-sounding tweakable wah paired with a warm saturated fuzz
- EVO-1 Oil Can Delay: a legendary, eccentric vintage delay prized for its unusual delay artifacts and warm warble
