The EarthQuaker Devices Spatial Delivery is a versatile envelope filter pedal, offering three dynamic modes (Up Sweep, Down Sweep, and Sample & Hold) to create a range of sounds from classic auto-wah to glitchy textures. It features intuitive controls for Range, Filter, and Resonance, and the V3 model includes six user presets and flexi-switch technology for flexible footswitching. The pedal allows for expression pedal control over various parameters, and its true bypass design ensures a clean signal path. This pedal is designed to go beyond conventional filter effects.
The Spatial Delivery is an oddball, a voltage controlled envelope filter that allows you to step outside the universe of funk while reinforcing your secret love affair with auto-wah. This baby has three modes with the switchable Up Sweep, Down Sweep, and Sample & Hold functions, along with Range, Resonance and Filter controls. Get some wild filter sweeps with the Up and Down modes and adjust the Range to control the sensitivity and reaction time of the envelope, which alters the width of the frequency sweep. Reign in the controls a bit, add your favorite overdrive/fuzz after the Spatial Delivery and you’ve got a real nice resonant, cut-through-the-mix lead tone.

They were especially pleased with the ability to save and recall their preferred settings. The pedal's versatility and quality made it a highly recommended choice for players looking for a unique filter effect.
