Electro-Harmonix Ravish Sitar Emulator Pedal

Under the innovative design of the Electro-Harmonix Ravish Sitar Emulator Pedal, your electric guitar transforms into a sitar, offering unparalleled harmonic and dynamic flexibility. This high-quality, durable pedal encapsulates the essence of the sitar in a compact, user-friendly enclosure, featuring a polyphonic lead voice and tunable sympathetic string drones that dynamically respond to your playing style.

The versatile Ravish Sitar Emulator allows you to create custom scales for the sympathetic strings and adjust the decay time for the lead voice. It includes two expression pedal inputs, enabling simultaneous pitch bending of the lead voice and volume control of the sympathetic strings. These unique features provide the musician with the opportunity to program the Ravish into a completely unique and organic instrument, making it a crossover tonal marvel.

The Dry Level Control adjusts the volume of the dry signal (your original instrument's signal) at the MAIN OUTPUT, while the Lead Level Control manages the amount of lead sitar signal at the MAIN OUTPUT. The Sympathetic Level Control modifies the amount of sympathetic signal on the MAIN OUTPUT and the SYMPATHETIC OUTPUT. The Lead Timbre and Bodysympathetic Timbre controls manage the "buzz" or "zing" of the lead tone and sympathetic strings tone, respectively.

The Mode/Preset Encoder, a white knob, serves three functions: preset scrolling, preset saving, and mode toggling. The Pitch EXP and Drone EXP jacks allow for optional expression pedal connection for pitch bending of the lead sitar and manual control of the Ravish's sympathetic strings, respectively. The Bypass Footswitch and LED toggle between effect mode and bypass mode, while the Preset Footswitch and LED serve multiple purposes, including preset loading, custom tuning engagement, and sympathetic strings freezing.

The Main Out jack contains the dry, lead sitar, and sympathetic string signals, while the Sympathetic Out output is designed for use with external effects and/or to connect to a separate amplifier. Experience the unique blend of traditional sitar sounds and modern guitar effects with the Electro-Harmonix Ravish Sitar Emulator Pedal.
