The "SpaceTime" is a handmade echo pedal which combines in a unique way the advantages of analog and digital audio circuits. This results in a warm and deep sounding delay pedal, which is easy to operate and able to create analog delay typical self-oscillations. Your direct (dry) guitar signal is completely preserved in the analog domain - there is no latency for your original guitar signal! In a carefully designed parallel signal path only the generation of the echo signal is realized digitally.

SpaceTime v2 Delay/Echo

Das Vahlbruch KALUNA ist ein von Grund auf neu entwickeltes Overdrive/Distortion-Pedal, in dessen 100% analoger Schaltung eine mit 250 Volt betriebene ECC83/12AX7 Doppeltrioden-Röhre das Herzstück bildet. Die für diese Art Röhrenschaltung erforderliche Hochspannung wird im Inneren des Pedals eigenständig aus der Standard-9V-Stromversorgung erzeugt und ist für den "richtigen" Oberton-Gehalt, die gewisse Overdrive-Transparenz, das perkussive Attack-Verhalten und die typisch-komplexe Kompression verantwortlich, die wir alle auch von übersteuerten Röhrenverstärkern her kennen und lieben.

The Valbruch KALUNA is a new and completely original design featuring an ECC83/12AX7 tube that is 100% pure analog tone! Operating at 250 volts, the dual triode tube circuit is powered by your standard 9V power supply, producing this very particular sweet harmonic content, overdrive clarity, fast pick attack response and complex compression, that we all love from cranked tube amps. The KALUNA is a super versatile, intuitive drive pedal with an extremely open sound that's transparent with great dynamics. The gain characteristics from the KALUNA are organic and three dimensional, delivering mild breakup to creamy saturation.

Kaluna Tube Drive

Während der Vahlbruch „Jewel Drive“ ein so genanntes „Medium Gain“ Overdrive-Pedal ist, verfügt der  „Sapphire Drive“ über ein höheres Gain-Potential. Der offene Grundsound und die hohe Transparenz ist aber bei beiden Pedalen gleichermaßen vorhanden, auch sind die Regelmöglichkeiten verwandt.

The Sapphire offers everything from a very light to moderate crunch to a quite heavy distortion like sound with a very high dynamic. The better your guitar and amp are, the more you should get a sapphire. And the better you play, it is very sensitive to your picking etc.

Sapphire Drive

The BBQ combines in an original and 100% analog circuit a high-end Buffer, Booster and eQualizer (= BBQ) in a small pedal format. Let's take a closer look at the three sections of the BBQ:
The BBQs buffer eliminates impedance matching problems and avoids annoying loss of treble and dynamics that can occur with long cables and effect pedal chains.
The BBQ is the perfect booster to overdrive an amp's input stage, but it can also help to clear up a crunchy amp (minus booster). The volume can be adjusted over a wide and practical range from -8dB to +16dB.
The extremely effective equalizer section of the BBQ (+/-15dB for each band) is so versatile that only the user's imagination sets its limits. It allows, among other things, to comfortably match signal levels or balance different instruments better. You can also add an additional sound option or gain stage to your overdrive pedal, e.g. with reduced bass and boosted mids for more punch and clarity. If the BBQ is used after an overdrive pedal, it can of course also act as a volume boost for lead parts or as a dedicated sound shaping tool for your specic drive sound.
