SOURCE AUDIO SA281 PATHWAYS [Reverb + Tremolo]

From the tremolo and spring reverb of vintage amplifiers to modern ambient tones, tremolo and reverb have been used together for decades. The reason is simple: it's musical. One adds "movement" to the sound, and the other adds "depth."

PATHWAYS further develops this long-loved idea, enabling a wider range of sound shaping, from tight and direct sounds to expansive ambiance. The result is a pedal that seamlessly blends into vintage tones, as an essential element you'll want to keep on all the time, and as part of a modern soundscape.
