Reverb

Whether you're chasing the crushing riffs of Killswitch Engage, the razor-sharp clarity of Bullet for My Valentine, or the ambience-soaked epics of Architects, the classic Metalcore guitar sound is instantly recognisable.

Over the last 20 years, Metalcore has evolved as many of the OG bands of the genre are now filling arenas around the world, but its raw, pummelling aggression still lies at the heart of its sound.

Expression pedals allow us to unlock some extra potential from our gear. We’re going to break down how expression pedals work, how to connect them to your delay or reverb unit, what parameters you can typically control (this will vary from pedal to pedal), and learn some pro tips to get the most out of your delay and reverb soaked tones.

Picture the scene... you've just spent some time dialling in your dream high gain tone. You've got the amp cooking, stacked the overdrive pedals and achieved that perfect balance between saturation and clarity... but now there is an overwhelming hiss coming from the amp that threatens to derail your tone. What do you do?

We are absolutely thrilled to welcome our newest brand onboard, Lichtlaerm Audio. And if you don't know these guys already, you're in for a treat...
