The EarthQuaker Guitar Pedals always come out on top. This is New is in stock and ready to post out to you, with fast, reliable delivery straight to your door. For more New Guitar Pedals options, read on for full specifications, demos, and secure online ordering.

The Avalanche V2 transcends the delay category. In typical EarthQuaker fashion, it offers a wealth of controls and parameters that can be tweaked and interwoven to create complex and abstract textures, the likes of which are hard to find anywhere else.

Offering three distinct modes – Norma, Reverse and Swell – it boasts improved stereo imaging and a more complex algorithm than its predecessor, tap tempo, expression input and much more. This really is the peak (excuse the pun) of digital & abstract delay effects! 

Key Features:

  • Normal Mode – straight up delay and reverb, with up to 2 seconds of delay time to play with. 
  • Reverse Mode – as the name suggests, the delay signal is reversed to create abstract ambient sounds.
  • Swell Mode – adds a volume swell that responds to the attack of your input signal.
  • Controls: Time, Repeats, Tone, Mix, Decay, Ratio, Expression
  • Improved algorithm and stereo imaging
  • Tap tempo
  • Expression Input
  • True bypass circuitry
  • Top-mounted jacks for convenience

Here's what EarthQuaker have to say about the Avalanche Run V2:

The Avalanche Run was developed with one goal in mind: to take the floating ambient tones of our Dispatch Master to the next level while still keeping it user friendly and refined. Taking you into the aural exploratorium without having to break open the user manual every time you want to open up your inner eye and get free is no easy task. We are using a high powered proprietary DSP platform to recreate all the characteristics of all our old favorite delay and reverb machines while still retaining a simple, yet flexible workspace.

  • Stereo reverb and delay
  • V2 features an updated algorithm for an even better stereo image
  • 3 delay modes and tap tempo – Normal, Reverse and Swell
  • Expression input – For hands-free control over pedal parameters
  • True bypass – Silent soft-touch switching
  • Analog dry-through
  • Top-mounted jacks – for effortless pedalboard implementation

The Avalanche Run is a dreamy sonic discovery device with up to 2 seconds of delay time and a lush reverb. It features complete control over delay time, repeats, mix and voice (with the tone control), as well as control over the reverb length and mix. It can run in one of 3 different modes: Normal, Reverse and Swell. 

In Normal mode, the Avalanche Run functions as a straightforward delay and reverb. In Reverse mode, the delay line is in reverse and the reverb remains in normal mode. In Swell mode, the Avalanche Run reacts to your picking dynamics and adds a volume swell to the entire signal path much like manually raising and lowering the volume of your guitar. 

The Avalanche Run features an expression jack that can be assigned to one of six different controls using the EXP selector switch. It also features Tap Tempo with six different ratios accessed via the Ratio selector switch.

The Avalanche Run can also be run in True Bypass mode or Buffered Bypass mode for trails and features 5 different tail lengths including Infinite for lo-fi and continuously degrading pseudo-looping. 

The Tap switch also has a few other cool secondary functions. While in Normal and Swell mode, you can send the Avalanche Run into self-oscillation by holding down the Tap footswitch. In Reverse, mode holding down the Tap switch will flip the delay back into Normal mode and return to Reverse mode once released!  Each and every Avalanche Run V2 is completely assembled, wired and tested by total human beans in the tiny tundra town of Akron, Ohio.

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.

Delay

Delay is an effect that records the guitar signal and plays it back after a short period of time, creating an echo or repeat. By adjusting the time, feedback, and level, delay can add subtle depth and space or produce rhythmic, expressive repeats that enhance lead lines, ambient textures, and overall atmosphere.

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.

Reverb

Reverb (short for reverberation) is an audio effect that simulates the natural reflections of sound in a physical space. When you play in a room, hall, or cathedral, the sound waves bounce off the walls, ceiling, and floor, creating a sense of depth and ambience. Reverb pedals and processors recreate this effect electronically, allowing guitarists and producers to shape how “big” or “live” their sound feels. From short, springy echoes that mimic vintage amp tanks to lush, atmospheric washes used in ambient or shoegaze music, reverb adds dimension and realism — turning a dry, flat tone into something immersive and expressive.

Stereo

Stereo refers to an audio setup that uses two separate channels, left and right, to create a sense of width, space, and direction in sound. By sending slightly different signals to each channel, stereo allows effects and instruments to feel more immersive and three-dimensional compared to a single mono signal.

In guitar and audio equipment, stereo is commonly used with delays, reverbs, modulation effects, and multi-amp rigs to enhance depth and movement. Stereo setups can make a sound feel wider and more spacious, especially in recording or live environments where separation between speakers can be clearly heard.
