Amethyst

Classic Audio Effects was known for their innovative roller-based pedal designs that replaced traditional rocker mechanisms with a rotating barrel system. Their unique approach to expression control earned a devoted following before the company ceased operations.

The Amethyst is a full-size roller pedal featuring Classic Audio's precision mechanical design. The kevlar drive belt system provides smooth, consistent control without the maintenance issues associated with string-based mechanisms in traditional expression pedals.

The roller takes approximately two rotations from heel to toe to cover the full range, with a positional LED that dims and brightens to indicate current position. The 270-degree rotation provides fine control resolution while the sealed bearing system ensures long-term reliability.

Built in a sturdy aluminum enclosure, the Amethyst exemplifies Classic Audio's commitment to space-efficient designs that sound great and feel intuitive under foot.
