HOW IT WORKS

From your pedalboard to your DAW. And back.

The EL&R also works as a standalone reamper — send a recorded track back out through your pedals any time.

Send to your pedals

Signal leaves your interface, hits the EL&R send, runs through your effects chain or out to your amplifier. Impedance matching ensures your pedal or amp sees the signal correctly.

Return with character

Your track comes back through the EL&R return. Use the transformer to warmth. Manipulate your audio in real time.

Back to a new track

Record the processed signal as a new track. Dry signal stays untouched. Ideal to add color, or double tracks. Try it on keys, vocals, and drums too.
