Description:
The GigaPara is a parametric EQ and pre-amp pedal with 3 bell-curve parametric EQ bands, 2 parametric shelving bands and a range of input and output options.
GigaPara can accept balanced or unbalanced XLR, TRS or TS inputs (ie. a standard 1/4" instrument lead) and is designed to work with guitars, basses, microphones and line-level equipment.
This pedal is quite complex, so please take the time to read through the specifications and user manual so that you can make the best use of it.
Features:
•3 bell-curve parametric EQ bands with Frequency, Gain and Q controls (Frequency ranges are 20-400Hz, 150Hz-2.4KHz, 1KHz-16KHz, Gain of each band ranges from +/-15dB and Q factor ranges from 20-0.5).
•1 low-shelf filter ranging from 30-400Hz, and 1 high-shelf filter from 1.1-20KHz. Gain of each is +/-15dB.
•Choose between a 1 mega-ohm instrument input, a 4 kilo-ohm mic input or a 10 kilo-ohm line input.
•True/Active bypass switch. In Active mode, "IN GAIN" is retained to help keep mic levels constant (see below).

All pedals by Sine Effect Electronics are designed and built in Glasgow, Scotland. As these products are made completely by hand, there may be some slight visual imperfections that you wouldn't get from factory robots. Every effort is made to ensure that the pedals look cool and sound good, though!
My ethos has always been to create effective, intuitive, reliable and fairly-priced pedals. A good piece of music equipment will allow you to achieve the sounds you hear in your mind without confusion or frustration. EQ pedals are my forte, which are designed using both my own experience as a musician, and input from hundreds of artists who have been kind enough to try Sine Effect pedals over the years.
"Build quality is fantastic and the pedal instantly transformed my tone"
Very well built, very low noise and meets all my EQ needs. The builder of these pedals is a huge help and his work is impressive!! Thank you!
