From MAS Effects:

THE EXPANSE

A harmonic tremolo pedal you can keep on Earth, or get lost in space

This harmonic tremolo gives you a huge range of tonal possibilities. It can be used as a standalone tremolo, optionally with with some layered on reverb, or you can dial in some complex textured delays and feedback to create dreamy soundscapes. And of course you have everything inbetween.

Controls

Expression jacks

Separate jacks let you simultaneously control WIDTH and either EXPANSE or VELOCITY with any expression pedal, including the Expanse-themed expression slider, or the regular MAS Effects Desktop Expression Pedal.

Width

Sweeping range of the tremolo (on bottom 2 OUTER SPACE settings)
or Spacing between echoes (on upper OUTER SPACE setting)

VELOCITY

Speed of tremolo sweep

EXPANSE

Amount of atmospheric ambience

VASTNESS (Unlabeled upper-right knob)

Amount of space added when pressing the VAST EXPANSE foot switch
(Interactive with EXPANSE. e.g. Higher EXPANSE settings make this more responsive. Experiment to get a feel for it)

VOLUME

Overall effect level. Gives up to 2x boost to compensate for the perceived drop in volume from tremolo

BLEND

Mixes dry and wet signals

OUTER SPACE

Sets the mode of the pedal:

DOWN: Harmonic tremolo only. EXPANSE is disabled
MID: Adds expansive reverb
UP: Adds echoing feedback

WARP

Selects between different voices:

DOWN: Sensible and beautiful harmonic tremolo
MID: Slightly more severe, with different frequencies on the high and low pass filters, and more resonance
UP: The low frequency oscillator (LFO) not only pans between the filters, but also shifts their frequencies. The WIDTH knob has a much bigger impact on the sound than in other WARP settings as it also shifts the resonance

VAST EXPANSE (foot switch)

Temporarily pushes the EXPANSE beyond EXPANSE its limits. Its added amount is controlled by VASTNESS

BYPASS (foot switch)

Tap to toggle between engaged and bypassed (true bypass). Hold to temporarily toggle, the release to switch back
