Essential Information About the Beetronics Larva Phaser Pedal
Essential Information About the Beetronics Larva Phaser Pedal
- 6-stage analog phaser with a warm tone, featuring a built-in preamp usable on its own (clean to slightly saturated).
- Two phaser settings (Phaser 1 and Phaser 2) and a morphing function to switch between sounds with either an abrupt or progressive transition.
- Phaser, Vibee (vibrato), or Preamp mode: a truly creative modulation pedal designed for playing and textures.
- LED bar to visualize the ramp movement and a bypass LED that also serves as a preamp saturation indicator.

Beetronics' First Phaser, Between Vintage Psychedelic and Modern Ideas
The Larva is Beetronics' first phaser : a boutique take on '70s-style phasing, but with a clearly modern approach. While a classic phaser gives you speed and depth, the Larva offers two ready-to-use states, and especially the ability to sculpt the transition between these two worlds to create movements impossible to reproduce with a traditional phaser.
Its preamp at the heart of the circuit is not just a "bonus": it serves to

Questions frequently asked
Can the Beetronics Electronics LARVA Phaser switch between settings live?
Two states are separately adjustable with Rate 1/Depth 1 and Rate 2/Depth 2. The Switch mode performs an abrupt change, while the Morph mode creates a smooth transition controlled by the Ramp section. An LED bar displays the position between the two settings.
What type of phaser does this pedal offer?
The 6-stage analog circuit produces a thick phasing effect with adjustable resonance. The settings allow for subtle movements or more pronounced textures.
Does the Larva's Vibee mode correspond to a vibrato?
In Vibee mode, only the modulated signal is output, resulting in a vibrato effect similar to a vibe rather than a standard phaser.
Can the Larva be used as a preamp or boost?
The Preamp position activates a section with Gain (Pre) and Master controls. It can thicken the signal and even reach mild overdrive; the bypass LED then indicates distortion.
What power supply is required for the Beetronics Larva?
A 9 V DC power supply with negative center is required. The stated current draw is 70 mA; a supply capable of delivering at least 100 mA provides a comfortable margin.
