TC Electronic Announces the Aeon
TC Electronic has expanded their line of musical gadgets with the Aeon, a handheld infinite sustainer that allows for holding out notes. The device is housed in a brushed aluminum enclosure and features special transducers for fast string excitement at the touch of a button.
“By placing AEON over a string and slowly moving it closer to the pickup, you get dynamic volume swells similar to the sounds created on bowed instruments minus the initial attack,” the company writes. “This technique can be easily used on your guitar, bass, or any other steel stringed instruments; the only limit is your imagination.”
The Aeon runs on a 9-volt battery and automatically turns itself after 8 minutes of inactivity. It will be shipping this month with a street price of $69.99.
