Available to be delivered to you by post direct (some charge may apply).The team at Just Pedals think that EarthQuaker Devices nailed it with the Earthquaker Devices Pyramids Stereo Flanger Guitar Pedal.
When Earthquaker Devices set about creating a new stompbox, they tend to do it with a clear goal in mind: to break the mould. Purveyors of some of the most mind-bending effects available on the market, they've got a reputation for setting the bar when it comes to weird and wonderful tones. Their latest creation is a typically supercharged modulation pedal with heaps of features and flexibility – say hello to the Pyramids!
Flange to your heart's content
The Pyramids Stereo Flanging Device started life as an offshoot of the Avalanche Run DSP architecture. It was tweaked and contorted until it became it's own beast entirely. The pedal you see before you is a stereo flanger with user-definable presets, eight distinct modulation modes, tap tempo and subdivision control, in-depth feedback controls and much more!
Pyramids “Activate” foot-switch features EarthQuaker Devices’ exclusive Flexi-Switch technology. This relay-based true-bypass switching platform allows for momentary or latching operation, making it easier than ever to engage the effect to bedazzle individual notes or phrases! For standard latching operation, tap the foot-switch to activate the effect and tap again to bypass. For momentary operation, simply hold down the foot-switch for as long as you’d like to use the effect. Release the foot-switch to bypass.
The Pyramids' eight flanger modes are:
- Classic: delivers the “classic” (duh) jet-plane liquid-silk flanging sound we all know and love. In this mode, Pyramids recreates the studio-quality sounds of old-school ADT (automatic double tracking) as heard on timeless recordings by those fabulous mop-tops from England (you know which ones) and on the most ripping double-tracked riffs to come from the New Wave of British Heavy Metal.
- Through-Zero: provides authentic tape-style flanging without all the calibration, biasing, demagnetising of heads, and so on that a real tape machine – two of ‘em, actually – requires. Use Through-Zero Mode to achieve intensified, swirling, dramatic phase cancellation and comb-filtering effects in stereo!
- Barber Pole (Up or Down): infinitely sweeping upward or downward flanging effect with no discernible beginning, middle, or end creating an “endless circular staircase” effect derived from the Shephard Tone auditory illusion popularised in television, video games, and film.
- Trigger (Up or Down): In this mode, Pyramids provides an infinitely upward or downward sweeping flanger that restarts the flange cycle with each new pick attack or by pressing the Tap/Trigger foot-switch.
- Step: sweeps up and down in stepped increments, producing a rhythmic flange effect similar to an arpeggiator and/or sequencer on a synth instrument.
- Random: sweeps up and down in random intervals, creating a chaotic flange effect

Flanger
A flanger is a type of guitar effects pedal used to create a swirling, whooshing sound by modulating the phase of an audio signal. It works by combining the original signal with a slightly delayed and modulated version of itself. As the two signals interact, they create peaks and troughs in the frequency spectrum, resulting in the characteristic “jet plane” or “swooshing” sound associated with flanging.
Key features of a flanger pedal include:
1. **Rate**: Controls the speed at which the delayed signal is modulated. Higher rates produce faster modulation, while lower rates create slower, more subtle effects.
2. **Depth**: Adjusts the intensity of the modulation effect. Higher depth settings result in more pronounced sweeps, while lower settings produce a gentler effect.
3. **Manual (or Range)**: Sets the center frequency of the modulation. This control allows you to focus the effect on specific frequency ranges, altering the tonal character of the flanging.
4. **Feedback (or Regeneration)**: Determines the amount of modulated signal that is fed back into the effect. Increasing feedback can create more pronounced peaks and troughs, resulting in a more intense effect.
Flanger pedals are commonly used in various music genres, including rock, metal, and psychedelic music, to add movement, depth, and texture to guitar tones. They can be used subtly to add a touch of modulation and dimension to a guitar sound, or more prominently to create dramatic swirling effects. Overall, flanger pedals offer guitarists a versatile tool for shaping and enhancing their tone, adding a dynamic and expressive element to their playing.

Pedal
A pedal is an electronic device that alters the sound of an electric guitar by applying various effects. Pedals are typically connected in a series between the guitar and amplifier, allowing guitarists to switch effects on and off with their feet while playing.
This enables musicians to quickly and easily change their sound, adding versatility and creativity to their performances.
Pedals are essential tools in many musical genres, including rock, blues, jazz, and metal, allowing artists to craft distinctive and dynamic soundscapes.
Once you buy one, you can’t stop and then you have to sell them and buy more.
Stereo
Stereo refers to a sound setup or effect that uses two channels (left and right) to create a sense of space and dimension in the audio. In a stereo configuration, sounds are panned across the left and right speakers or headphones, providing a more immersive and dynamic listening experience compared to mono, which uses only a single channel.
In the context of guitar pedals, a stereo pedal can output a signal to two separate channels, offering a broader soundstage and enhancing effects like delay, reverb, chorus, and panning. This allows for more complex and expansive soundscapes, with some pedals offering true stereo outputs to achieve rich, spatial effects that evolve across both channels. Popular stereo pedals include the Strymon Timeline, Eventide H9, and Electro-Harmonix Holy Grail Stereo, which all utilise stereo outputs to create rich, evolving tones that feel more immersive in a performance or recording setting.
