Crescendo Auto Swell brings an iconic and rare
effect and makes it readily available and built
to withstand a lifetime of abuse.
Vintage auto swell effect
All-analog circuitry
True Bypass
Crescendo produces a unique "swell"-effect similar to what bowed instruments can produce.
Subtle and simple
Using the pedal is simple as it is effectively just reversing the concept of a noise gate.
Instead of clamping down on the tail of your signal, gradually drowning the signal as the note rings out as it is overpowered by a noisy circuit, the Crescendo clamps down on the initial attack and swells up to volume.
Put simply, it removes the pick attack and leaves you with a beautiful swelling note.
Put a drive or a compressor after Crescendo to make long sustaining swell notes reminiscent of violins and other bowed instruments.
Roadworthy
Housed in a sturdy metal enclosure Crescendo was built to withstand years of abuse.
High quality analog circuitry with true bypass keeps your signal nice and clean.
The top mounted jacks make it easy to cram in Crescendo on your pedal board, keeping cables and clutter out the way.
