The Alesis QuadraVerb GT is a stereo effects unit that is ideal for guitar. It combines analogue and digital electronics to provide the best of both worlds.

Alesis Quadraverb GT Guitar Effects Processor Details

The Alesis Quadraverb GT stands out as a powerhouse among guitar signal processors, integrating all the digital effects of the classic Alesis Quadraverb with an advanced analogue guitar pre-amp section.

This section is meticulously designed to include variable compression, overdrive, distortion, finely tuned pre-amp tone curves, bass boost, a sophisticated guitar amp/cabinet simulator, and a noise gate for pristine sound control. Additionally, the Alesis Quadraverb GT is equipped with an effects loop for both send and return, enhancing its versatility.

What truly sets the Alesis Quadraverb GT apart is its unmatched capability to fine-tune the harmonic structure of your guitar’s tone. This is achieved through a dynamic parametric equalizer and the device’s resonators, which don’t just process sounds but actively extract and emphasize the natural harmonics of your guitar.

These analogue components complement the digital effects renowned in the original Alesis Quadraverb, delivering a rich, full guitar sound that encompasses everything from the pre-amp to signal processing in a single, streamlined unit. With the Alesis Quadraverb GT, your guitar will not just play notes; it will sing them, transforming every performance into something truly spectacular.

Great unit. Durable (40 years old and still going unlike the imported stuff being offered today). I own several different delays (I.e. ADA, Lexicon, and multi effect units) and this thing matches up to the best of them. Recommended!
