Description
Blackskycraft Unusual EAS is an uber-tweakable, modulated ambient reverb with added filter and bitcrusher.
Made in NYC by a small builder without a website, the Unusual EAS is unusual indeed, providing a thick and lush reverb and several ways to make it sound from textural to cosmic to downright weird (FYI, “weird” is a good word, in our vocabulary). Here are some of the features: • 16 modulation waveforms in 2 banks of 8 • Tap subdivisions (via the “Multi” toggle) • an onboard bitcrusher with its controls for resolution and sample rate. • tap tempo for modulation rate, • a send/return effects loop to place other effects between the reverb and the bitcrusher.

A fun unique noisescape
This pedal came onto my radar because of Emily the Harp Lady on YouTube. I liked the weird/scary/haunting effect it could produce. After realizing I had to message the creator Blackskycraft (on Instagram) to order one, it was a no brainer addition to my pedalboard. Is it a pedal that I often? No. But is it a super fun time every time I do, absolutely. It's a big pedal with plenty of controls (and a helpful instructional manual included in the box). If you're into ambient reverbs, this is a great addition to your pedal lineup.

How much did it cost? I’m not on Instagram so can’t ask. Cheers!
