Founded in 2015 and hailing from Boston, Massachusetts, Electronic Audio Experiments are more than just a pedal manufacturer, they are “an exploration in sound and texture via electronics”. The Electronic Audio Experiments Halberd is a transistor overdrive circuit designed to deliver the greatest possible dynamic range and clarity. Rich in harmonic content, this medium-gain pedal produces a thick, full sounding overdrive courtesy of a dozen transistors working in perfect harmony. Tonally, the Halberd sits somewhere between a blown-up tweed amp and an overloaded console for a sound that feels familiar but refreshingly unique too.

Controls
Pre – This sets the overall signal gain. Lower settings impart light compression, then increasing amounts of clipping up to a fuzzy overdrive, depending on the Voice and Depth settings.
Depth – This is an adjustable low frequency shelving filter at the input and is very interactive with the setting of the Pre control. It can be thought of as a second gain control affecting low frequencies only.
Tone – This is an adjustable high shelf cut at the output, helpful for taming harsher frequencies especially at high gain settings.
Post – This sets the overall output level and is buffered for full transparency at all signal levels.
Voice – 3 position switch to set the overall drive character
Clang (up) – Increases gain in the upper midrange, for an aggressive sound and a sharp attack
Standard (middle) – Moderate gain with a gentle mid push; identical to Halberd V1
Deep (down) – A full range gain boost with woolly saturation and a fuzzy note attack
Specifications
Bypass switching: Silent electronic switching with a Class A JFET buffer
Input impedance @ 1Khz: 1MΩ
Output impedance @ 1Khz: <1KΩ
Power: 9VDC, 2.1mm center negative barrel. The current draw is 50mA.
We recommend a regulated, isolated power supply rated for 100 mA minimum. The DC input is protected against reverse polarity and over-voltage up to 24V. Our pedals do not accept batteries.
