Guitar Effects Pedals
Welcome to the Effects Center! Our website features the largest collection of specifications, details, photos and information on nearly every type of guitar effects pedals known to man.
How Effects Pedals Work
Stompboxes, or effects pedals, are generally effects units designed to lay on the ground or even a pedalboard and be activated and off with the user's foot. They commonly contain just one effect. Easy and simple stompbox pedals possess a individual footswitch; one to three potentiometers for manipulating the effect, earn or tone; and a single LED indicator to indicate whether or not the effect is on. Some of the most complex stompbox pedals have multiple footswitches, eight to ten knobs, additional controls, and an digital display screen which means the state of the effect with small acronyms (e.g. DLY for "delay").
An "effects chain" or "signal chain" can be created by linking two or more stompboxes. Effect chains are typically created between a preamplifier and the guitar amp. Whenever a pedal is off or inactive, the electric sound signal coming in to the pedal is routed onto a "bypass", producing a "dry" signal which inturn proceeds onto additional effects down the sequence. This way, the effects within a sequence can be combined in a number of ways without needing to reconnect boxes during a performance. A "controller" or "effects control system" provides for several effect string loops to be created, in order that one or more effects can be engaged or disengaged by stomping only one button. The buttons are usually structured consecutively or a basic grid. The most popular pool games around!
The Variety Guitar Effects Pedals
With the breakthroughs in technology in recent years, the quality and variety of guitar stompboxes has grown by leaps and bounds. No longer do you need to buy expensive rack effects to get stunning sounds and extremely high quality. If you can imagine a sound, you can buy an effects pedal to create it, and most will not cost you more than $100 or so, depending on the manufacturer.
Boutique Stomboxes
A recent fad in the guitar effects pedals world is the manufacturing of limited, handmade stompboxes or “boutique effects”. These companies generally produce their effects in significantly lower quantities than the larger, more mass produced models from Boss, Digitech and Dunlop. The boutique pedals are made with many non standard features such as true bypassing capabilities and hand painted stompbox cases. These effects pedals can run into the several hundreds of dollars depending on the effect and the number of pedals produced.
No matter if you’re looking for a simple distortion guitar effects pedal, or you want a full pedalboard of the latest vintage or boutique effects, you have the ability to taylor your sound exactly as you want it, and you can emulate the sounds of some of the most famous guitar players in rock history. We hope you’ll find the information at the EffectsCenter.com to be helpful in your hunt for your unique guitar effects experience.
