Backwards Compatibility
New vs Old
At Harmonn, we are trying to change music gear for the better and their are two reactions to it:
-
"Wow that's so cool and way better than all this out-dated rubbish"
-
"We perfected music equipment 50 years ago and any changes to it will make it worse"
Although it's a huge challenge to please both these camps at the same time we think we might have done a pretty good job.
Embracing Tradition
We firmly believe in preserving the timelessness of analog circuitry. While digital advancements have reshaped the landscape of music production, many musicians still look for the warm, organic tones that only analog circuitry can provide. We want to give you this and we use traditional analog circuitry to deliver unparalleled sound quality in every pedal.
Each Legion pedal houses hand-selected components that produce rich, harmonically complex tones. From the gritty growl of our distortion to the lush ambience of our reverb, the Legion pedals' circuitry captures the essence of classic guitar effects. Musicians can trust every Legion pedal to deliver incredible, timeless sound.
Seamless Integration
We know that the Legion pedal is a huge step forward and opens up enormous possibilities for guitarists. However, we also know that however good our pedals sound, we will never replace the classics or that one pedal that you just can't get rid of. Unlike a lot of modern tech that operates within closed systems (Apple we're looking at you), the Legion pedal embraces connectivity, offering jack input and output in every unit. This feature allows musicians to incorporate the Legion pedal seamlessly into their existing pedalboards, regardless of brand or model.
Whether you're a seasoned veteran with a collection of vintage pedals or a newcomer exploring the world of guitar effects for the first time, the Legion pedal is for you. Legion pedals are easy to use whether you want a complete Legion pedal setup (without the need for patch cables or a board or velcro strips etc.) or you just want to add a couple of Legion modules to your rig.
Signal Sends for Dynamic Signal Routing
Beyond its compatibility with existing setups, the Legion pedal offers a level of versatility that is truly pretty unique. Every pedal has 2 outputs - the MagneticLink and the standard jack. This means that you can run effect send from any point in your Legion rig!
You could, for example, want 3 Legion pedals at the start of your signal chain and 2 at the end but have a whole pedal board of other pedals in between. With the effect send you can still have all your Legion pedals clipped together but have an output from pedal 3 going to your pedalboard, and the return send from the pedalboard going into the input of pedal 4.
Balancing Tradition and Progress
At Harmonn we don't just want to let you embrace tradition, we want to help you. We're not here to start from scratch and do everything completely differently, we're here to fix all of the annoying grounding issues, cable management, and power supplies that tell you their voltage in the middle of a paragraph on the back (font size 4).
Whether you're new to pedals and are looking for a simple way of getting the sound you want or a purist looking for the next classic pedal, we might just be what you're looking for.
Love and Champagne,
