Recreate That Elusive Classic Rock Sound

Magic for Lead and Rhythm Guitars

With dedicated chains for lead and for rhythm guitars, Eddie Kramer Guitar Channel helps you make guitar solos come alive and guitar riffs up-front and in your face. Spice things up with the built-in delay, reverb and compression, and with Eddie’s signature flanging sound—made famous by Jimi Hendrix.

Vocal Clarity and Character

Fast, Fat, Foolproof Bass

Create bass tracks that fit the music like a glove. Two bass sounds cover all the bases: dynamic and breathing, or aggressive and big, with a fat, compressed sound. Finally, shape the overall tone with bass and treble controls.

Sweeten Your Sound

For the finishing touch on any track, apply Eddie Kramer Effects Channel’s EMT-style plate reverb for rich, diffused ambience—then add the ingenious interplay of tape-based, slapback echo effects. You’ll recognize the sound instantly from classic recordings.
