Kernom's description of the Kernom ELIPSE augmented analog modulation pedal

 

THE MODULATION PLAYGROUND.

Dive into the world of modulation with the ELIPSE.  Seamlessly morph between lush choruses, warm phasers, jet-like flangers, and rhythmic tremolos. Create classic tones or discover entirely new textures—all in one pedal.

The ELIPSE redefines classic  modulation, offering seamless, continuous morphing between analog  effects—from lush, smooth choruses and warm phasers to jet-like flangers and rhythmic tremolos.

The Kernom ELIPSE opens up a limitless playground for your creativity with Analog warmth and MIDI control.

 

PLAY WITH YOUR MOOD.

Seamless Morphing.

Transition effortlessly between modulation effects,giving you the flexibility to choose classic tones or craft hybrid, entirely unique sounds.

MOOD 1: TREMOLO.

 

MOOD 2: ROTARY.

 

MOOD 3: CHORUS.

 

MOOD 4: FLANGER.

 

MOOD 5: PHASER.

 

MOOD 6: UNIVIBE.

 

 

SWIRL.

The Secret Weapon.

The SWIRL control unlocks a legendary secret: blending a slow phaser with any modulation effect to create rich, multidimensional tones. Pushed to its limits, it reveals new overtones, enhanced by an analog drive circuit.

The Kernom ELIPSE takes modulation to the next level!

SUMMARY OF CONTROLS, FUNCTIONS, AND CONNECTIONS.

Kernom ELIPSE controls and connections.

SHAPE.

SHAPE modifies the modulation waveform, with a classic triangular shape at the mid-
position.

MOOD.

MOOD provides access to all the classic and iconic modulation effects with a single knob.
This continuous control allows you to gradually transition between classic effects and create hybrid combinations.

SPEED.

The SPEED adjusts the modulation rate, from ultra slow texture to fast ringing oscillations.

SWIRL.

SWIRL adds a secondary layer to the main effect. The first part of the knob’s sweep
introduces a slow phaser, while the second part adds a drive effect.

DEPTH.

DEPTH controls the intensity of the modulation effect.

MIX.

MIX controls the blend between wet and dry signals.
At the mid-position, it provides a 50/50 mix for classic effects.

PRESET.

1 onboard preset, 128 presets accessible via MIDI.

  • TRUE BYPASS WITH RELAY.
  • EXPRESSION PEDAL INPUT.
  • MIDI IN AND OUT WITH FULL CONTROL OVER ALL THE PARAMETERS.
