Final 12 months Aviate Audio launched the Developer Version of its Multiverse pedal — mainly a plug-in host in guitar pedal format. Now, simply in time for NAMM 2024, the corporate has introduced the Participant Version of the Multiverse. The pedal is, for all intents and functions, unchanged. Identical fundamental design, identical processor below the hood (a 600MHz Cortex M7), it's simply cheaper now at $349, and presumably received't have entry to among the developer targeted instruments.
The pedal itself has a small 1.3-inch OLED display screen to navigate the UI. There are 4 programable push encoders, plus two programable foot switches. There's stereo 1/4-inch TRS ins and outs, an 1/8-inch TRS midi enter on the aspect, two expression jacks and a USB-C port. Whereas the Multiverse can be utilized with a typical AC adapter, it will also be powered over USB-C, which is fairly useful when loading new results or testing out a patch.
To have a good time the launch of the Participant Version Multiverse, Aviate Audio can be asserting model 1.3 of its Multiverse Designer software program, which is able to add assist for impulse responses (IR) for speaker emulation. For those who shell out the $349 to seize one among these customizable multi-effects pedals, you'll have entry to a small, however rising library of impact plugins by the Multiverse shop (21 of them by my rely).
They cowl many of the fundamental results you'd want on a pedal board, fuzz, delay, reverb, et cetera. There's even an emulation of a Klon Centaur, that's cheekily marked as being on sale for $0 with an authentic worth of $7,999. Many of the results at the moment within the Aviate store are free, however there are a number of that ask you to pay $5 or $10 for them. The arrange isn't terribly completely different from what Mod Devices tried to do with its Duo line. Clearly Aviate Audio feels it will possibly succeed the place Mod struggled.
