The Spatial Delivery
Spatial Delivery has 3 toggled modes; Up Sweep, Down Sweep, and Sample & Hold. Equipped with range, resonance, and filter dials, you can dial in huge, emphasized filter sweeps in the Up and Down modes. The range dial, in combination with how hard you pick, controls the sensitivity and attack time of the envelope, and thus the size of the frequency sweep. Switching to a higher range setting and a harder pick attack results in a faster reaction time, with a higher frequency sweep and vice versa.
Dial down the controls a touch, then add your favourite overdrive or fuzz following the Spatial Delivery and you'll have a seriously resonant, cut-through-the-mix lead tone. Push the controls back up and you're a bedroom rock god. In Sample and Hold mode, the filter is controlled by random voltage while the range control adjusts the speed. Add a sub octave into your chain (either before or after) and you've just created a deep fried space droid computer freak-out.
Flexi-switch technology
This version two of the instrument, comes prepared with EarthQuakers new Flexi-switch technology which breathes a new air of life into the pedals sound. For standard latching operation all you have to do is tap the footswitch once to activate the pedal, and again to stop it operating. The momentary operation works by just holding down the footswitch and only holds the pedal active for time the pedal is held for.
Masterful construction
EarthQuaker constructs each pedal by hand in the United States, meticulously building each aspect with the utmost accuracy and precision, so you can be assured of their ability to emit a delightful and desirable sound. This also lends itself to the durability of each pedal, knowing each one is built by experts who excel in their craft. Its top mounted design also conserves space on your pedal board. EarthQuaker supplies pedals to a multitude of artists ranging from The Strokes, to Snail Mail, to Tame Impala. You can be sure the Acapulco will give you lasting quality and supreme sound.
