Guitar Pedals

Guitar pedals are compact effects units that shape and enhance a guitar’s sound, sitting between the instrument and the amplifier. They include gain pedals like overdrive and distortion, modulation effects such as chorus and tremolo, time-based effects like delay and reverb, and essential utilities including tuners, compressors and loopers. Understanding basic things such as pedal type, signal order, power requirements and intended use helps players choose pedals that suit their style, setup and playing environment.

Pedal

Pedals are the tools that let you shape, colour and transform your sound, from subtle tone enhancement to bold, creative effects. Whether you are adding grit, space, movement or control, a pedal becomes part of your playing rather than just an add-on. Exploring different pedals is about discovering what responds to your touch and helps your sound feel more like your own.

Phase

Phase describes the timing relationship between audio signals or parts of a signal as they move through a circuit or system. When signals interact in or out of phase, certain frequencies can be reinforced or cancelled, which directly affects tone and clarity.

In effects and audio processing, phase is most commonly associated with phaser effects and signal alignment in multi-mic or multi-amp setups. Managing phase correctly helps maintain fullness and definition, while deliberate phase shifting is used creatively to add movement and texture to a sound.
