Grand Orbiter V3

EarthQuaker Devices

collapse expand iconDescription

The EarthQuaker Grand Orbiter V3 is a 4-stage OTA-based phaser with a diverse feature set that can go from stationary and resonant to slow and mellow and on through fast and swirly. It has a three-way toggle switch to select between the ranges of modulation: Rate 1 is slow sweep mode, Rate 2 kills the LFO and allows you to use the Grand Orbiter as a fixed resonant filter and Rate 3 is fast sweep mode.

The master Rate control fine tunes the speed of the LFO in each of these modes and the flashing red LED acts as a visual indicator, even when the effect is in bypass mode.

The Depth control blends the shifted signal in with the dry signal and controls the intensity of the effect.

The Sweep control governs the peak frequency of the phased signal’s tone, turned full clockwise the sweep is lively and intense, whereas turning counter-clockwise yields a darker, more laid-back peak.

The Resonance provides a wide range of control over regeneration and at higher settings adds a more pronounced and resonant tone.

You can also use the Grand Orbiter as a true pitch vibrato with the Phase/Vibrato switch. When in Vibrato mode, the dry signal is removed and the Depth controls acts as a volume control.

This pedal is 100% analog, true bypass and built by entirely by hand in Akron, Ohio.

    I use this after my drive pedals but before my amp. The controls will let you go from a slow, subtle phase all the way to high-speed signal decomposition. The controls are simple with easily usable ranges. The Vibrato can be made to sound similar to a uni-vibe but is really more of a pitch-shifter by nature. It took me 20-30 minutes to get a setting I liked on each mode, copy it in my notebook, and get to jamming.

  • Returned it.

    I suppose it does what it claims, it just didn't fit into my sound.
