Electro-Harmonix Attack Decay - Tape Reverse Simulator Pedal

Electro-Harmonix Attack Decay - Volume-Envelope Effects with Poly Mode, Fuzz & FX Loop

The Attack Decay reimagines the classic envelope filter effect, allowing you to shape the onset and release of your instrument’s volume with studio-level precision. Whether creating shimmering swells, sudden cuts, bowed-instrument emulation or tape‐reverse style ambience, this pedal offers expansive creative control.

Built-For-Experimentation Features

Switch between Mono mode (single envelope for the full signal) and Poly mode (each note or chord gets its own envelope). Dial in Attack and Decay times from 4 ms to 8 s, engage the built-in Harmonix fuzz for saturated character, choose between three envelope shapes (linear, parabolic, s-curve), save three custom presets and add an external expression or CV pedal for real-time control of any knob.

Compact, Ready for Pedalboard Use

Enclosed in a road-worthy housing, the Attack Decay draws approx. 140 mA at 9-9.6 V DC (adapter included), and features a true buffered bypass. With an integrated effects loop (Send/Return) and ¼″ expression/CV/clock input, it’s built to integrate into pedalboards, modular setups or studio rigs.
