Audiocade Stereo Pendulum Harmonic Panning Tremolo
Audiocade · pedal
Audiocade's Stereo Pendulum Harmonic Panning Tremolo pushes well beyond a standard single-channel tremolo, splitting the signal into separate frequency bands and panning them independently across a stereo field in a swinging, pendulum-like motion, a harmonic tremolo approach that creates genuine movement and spatial depth rather than simple mono volume pulsing. This more advanced design sits at the opposite end of Audiocade's catalog from their vintage single-circuit clones, aimed at players and studio users specifically wanting complex, three-dimensional modulation textures for stereo rigs rather than a straightforward recreation of a classic amp-style tremolo.
