Vintage sound, modern casing
EarthQuaker Device’s optical vibe circuit has settings for both clockwise or counter-clockwise, the former producing full bass swells while the latter has more bite in the midrange.
Rate and intensity knobs let you switch from slow, strong pulses to fast, spiked shrills. Perfect for replicating a David Gilmour tone.
Practical and silent
Patented Flexi-Switching technology and an all-analogue signal allows for momentary and latching style switching, ensuring a smooth transition on and off. Remove added noise without affecting tone.
As with all EarthQuaker Devices, the Depths pedal has top mounted jacks allowing you to squeeze this into your pedalboard without pushing out other fundamental effects.

The Depths is optimized for use with all kinds of instruments, pickups, and to play well with dirt, so nobody’s left waiting on shore. If it’s got a 1/4" output, plug it in and get deep!
In addition to the classic vibe controls, the Depths features unique controls for “Voice” and “Throb.” The “Voice” control adjusts the midrange focus of the Depths, which is perfect for tailoring the effect to your particular instrument. Clockwise, you’ll hear a fuller sound with a low-end focus. Counter-clockwise, you’ll hear a thinner, spikier sound with a forward upper-midrange bite.
The “Throb” knob adds a hefty subharmonic low-end pulse to the vibrato signal, which is especially useful on synthesizers and the bass guitar. It sounds great with a little bit of dirt on the neck pickup of a guitar, too! This works best with the “Voice” turned counter-clockwise for a warmer tone.
The Depths’ “Intensity” and “Rate” controls are dialed in to give you the classic optical vibe sound at more modest. Please read more for images, details and to place an order.
