No power supply. No batteries. No complicated controls. Just two germanium diodes to choose from, and a simple way to change the character of your sound.

Hi, we’re Graig and Zera. Since 2009, we’ve been creating innovative tools that inspire creativity. We’ve chosen to keep Recovery Effects small and hands-on. Every device is assembled, tested, packaged, and shipped by the two of us from our small Seattle workshop.

We also run a recording studio, so our attention is occasionally split between studio sessions and soldering irons. Most of our devices are made to order, and our production schedule can shift depending on what’s happening in the workshop.

Lead times vary depending on order volume and production schedules, and can be longer during busy periods and new product launches. We build and ship orders as quickly as we can, and we really appreciate your patience.

For current shipping timelines and details, please see our FAQ page. If you need your order by a specific date, email us, and we will do our best to accommodate you.

Direct orders help sustain our workshop and allow us to keep building pedals, modules, and synths while developing new ideas.

We share tips, tricks, and behind-the-scenes glimpses on Instagram, so give us a follow.

Thank you for supporting our small business. We could not do this without you!

Our plug-ins bring the character of Recovery Effects into your DAW. Motion Pictures delivers lush stereo delay and reverb, while Shortwave explores unstable, lo-fi textures inspired by vintage radio transmissions. This is just the beginning of our software lineup!
