The As Above So Below is a cinematic octave divider and reverb pedal from LICHTLÆRM AUDIO, marketed under the banner "Ambient Bloom · Octave Shimmer · Infinite Decay". The maker describes its character in three words: "Vast. Lush. Otherworldly."1 It sits in the wider family of Octave & Pitch Pedals and Reverb Pedals, combining both effects in one unit.
The pedal is listed as a pre order item on the maker's product page, so it is not yet a standard stock item.1
What it does
The pedal layers a slow, droning sub-octave beneath the reverb, and the X-Control offsets that sub-octave in time, changing how it sits against what you play. A Dampen control smooths out the highs, taking the sound from vintage bloom to glassy shimmer depending on where it is set.1
Two features shape how it works on a board:
- An Expression input gives real-time control over the added octaves, so the octave content can be swept with a foot pedal while playing.1
- Switchable Spillover ensures seamless transitions between presets or bypass, letting the reverb tail carry on when you change sounds or switch the pedal off.1
The pedal has presets, and the maker highlights those seamless transitions between presets or bypass as part of its design.1
