Aly James Lab tells us that the ELASTIC Bender EL-2 is a Virtual FX Pedal which acts mainly as a peak triggered audio pitch bend envelope. Here's more details in their own words...
It can also reach anything between chorus, flanger, ring modulator and early vintage pitchshifter sounds.
The input and output circuitry has been analog modeled and will overdrive nicely if pushed too far or reach oscillation...
Among the 3 main controls, SPEED, DEPTH & FEEDBACK, there are many things that can be tweaked inside the pedal such as:
