KNAS Ekdahl Moisturizer with mods


Published on Mar 11, 2014 ISOTROPOSPHERE·125 videos

"Presenting my custom version of the Knas Ekdahl Moisturizer which was done with the directions on the KNAS website for this product.

The KNAS EM is an exposed spring reverb tank with a multi pass (LP, BP, HP) filter, an LFO and a mixer section all in one nice rugged unit. There are many modulation routes and plenty of ins and outs on the rear for cv and audio.

Yeah, you might think it pricey, but, its a very lush sound and not many other 'verbs let you play with the springs which makes it an instrument of it's own rite. The mods are not easy to perform, but the directions and Mr. Ekdahls nice replies made it work first power up. It is also a little unnerving hacking a nice, expensive device.

Along with performing the modifications I added some purple heart wood strips for the switch base and upper deck, custom hot pink labels for the mods and KNAS stickers, custom colored switch covers and the purple knobs to replace the stock white ones on my version. Sounds sweet and looks great.

I know these are popular because the are always sold out at the various distributors, has anyone else perform the mods to their unit? Lets see them....and hear them most of all....."
