Tubular Waves
The Cave Passive Pedals Tubular Waves is a captivating phaser pedal that puts you in control of the swirling, undulating textures that have defined some of the most iconic guitar tones. Eschewing the traditional foot-operated controls, this pedal uses a sensor to detect light and darkness, allowing you to create dynamic, expressive phase sweeps simply by moving your foot back and forth. With three distinct voicings - "Clean" for lush, chordal sounds, "Mild" for a touch of gritty overdrive, and "Chewy" for a mesmerizing, rolling-wave effect - the Tubular Waves offers a remarkable degree of tonal versatility. The unique light-based control adds an organic, almost tactile element to your playing, enabling you to sculpt the phase effect in real-time and imbue your guitar lines with a captivating, almost liquid-like quality. Developed through extensive research and experimentation, this pedal overcomes the common issue of volume drop that has plagued many phasers, ensuring your tone remains robust and present even as the effect swirls and morphs. While its distinctive design and hands-on control make the Tubular Waves a standout on any pedalboard, its true magic lies in the ability to unlock new realms of expression, allowing you to infuse your playing with a sense of movement and depth that will captivate any audience.
