Haunted Labs Shadow Winds Pedal

Haunted Labs Shadow Winds Pedal Review

The Time knob controls the delay/modulation rate; the Replicate knob controls feedback and overall intensity; and the pedal’s secret weapon is its aptly-named Invoke knob. The Invoke function introduces various stages of modulation into each of the programs, climaxing after reaching the 12 o’clock position.

The toggle offers three options via L-R switch labeled I, II and III. The programs can be described thusly:

• I / Left – Alternating 3rds up and down
• II / Middle – Alternating 3rd down with tremolo
• III / Right – Alternating tri-tones up and down with vibrato
