Electro-Harmonix Andy Summers Walking on the Moon Pedal

During his tenure with the Police, Andy Summers perfected a liquid, chorus-drenched, flange-soaked tone that pushed the boundaries of what an electric guitar could sound like in a rock trio setting. The Electro-Harmonix Andy Summers Walking on the Moon pays tribute to this elusive sound, enabling you to infuse your own playing with the slippery shimmer that fueled so many of the Police’s classic songs. First and foremost, the Walking on the Moon is an analog flanger pedal with Color, Range, and Rate knobs that unlock a wide breadth of modulation effects. Its unique Filter Matrix switch disengages the flanger circuit’s LFO for a fixed effect. You also get dedicated Dry and Flanged outputs. Finally, the EHX Andy Summers Walking on the Moon’s housing dons Special Artist Edition graphics, and it comes with a tribute poster designed by celebrated artist Laura Josephson!

A ghost of modulation effects in the machine

Andy Summers’ modulation-heavy tones were his stock in trade during the Police’s heyday, and the EHX Andy Summers Walking on the Moon has them in spades. Best of all, all these sounds are easily accessible using the stompbox’s simple 3-knob layout. The Color knob controls the intensity of the pedal’s flange effect, supplying you with everything from subtle chorus-esque coloration to full-blown jet-plane swooshes. The Range knob dials in how wide the effect sweeps into the low-frequency range. The Rate knob adjusts the modulation speed, yielding slow sweeps, quivering vibrato, and everything in between. The guitarists here at Music Experience especially like the Walking on the Moon’s Filter Matrix. This switch disengages the flanger circuit’s LFO to produce a fixed filter effect that lends ear-grabbing metallic overtones to your playing without the movement you’d normally experience with a typical chorus or flanger pedal.

What Electro-Harmonix Says…

Celebrating the classic, shimmering flanger sounds of Andy Summers, the EHX Walking on the Moon is a tribute to the tones Andy employed while carving his niche in the early days of playing with the Police. Liquid flange effects that hint toward chorus with extra depth and nuance make Andy’s sound one of the most coveted in all of the guitar universe. “This beautiful shimmering which sort of made the sound more bigger and more glamourous…became a sort of characteristic of my guitar sound…A big part of my guitar sound at that time in The Police was the flange sound which we have here today in this great new pedal.” – Andy Summers The Andy Summers Walking on the Moon is an analog flanger with a simple but powerful control set of RATE, RANGE, and COLOR. RATE sets the speed of modulation which ranges from slow, smooth filter sweeps to jittering vibrato. RANGE controls how narrow or wide the effect sweeps into the bass frequency range. The COLOR control effects the intensity of the flanger effect from subtle chorusing effects to classic jet woosh sounds. These three controls interact to create a wide breath of modulation effects. Additionally, the Walking on the Moon includes a FILTER MATRIX which disengages the LFO from the flanger circuit, freezing the flanger giving a fixed filter effect, which can add chime or metallic overtones to your sound without the movement of a traditional modulation pedal. A DRY output allows you to split your dry signal from the effected signal. Special Artist Edition graphics featuring Andy’s signature adorn the chassis and a tribute Walking on the Moon poster with art by Laura Josephson is included with each pedal.
