Description

The CopperSound Pedals Telegraph V2 in Carolina Copper is a comprehensive evolution of the original Telegraph, designed as an advanced killswitch and auto stutter pedal for guitar, bass, synths and studio use. It sits comfortably at the front of a pedalboard or in an effects loop, giving players immediate command over signal cuts, rhythmic chops and tightly controlled bursts of sound. Suitable for everything from modern alternative and experimental styles to precise rhythmic funk, post rock swells and electronic textures, the CopperSound Pedals Telegraph V2 turns simple signal interruption into a deliberate musical tool.

Sonically, the CopperSound Pedals Telegraph V2 moves from sharp, percussive signal cuts to tremolo like stutters that can be set from around 110 BPM to extremely rapid rates. In Kill mode, the footswitch mutes the signal instantly for classic staccato effects. In Activate mode, audio only passes when the switch is pressed, allowing controlled punches of sound. Burst mode introduces an automatic stutter, generating rhythmic slicing that can feel subtle and pulsing or aggressive and machine gun fast. The Polarity toggle lets players decide whether bursts are additive or reductive, meaning you can either inject rapid cuts into your playing or fire short bursts of sound from silence.

The feel is immediate and intuitive. CopperSound’s Smart Bypass switching allows quick taps for latching effects or press and hold for momentary control, making it equally suited to live performance and studio work. The response underfoot is precise, and the ability to operate it by hand makes it equally effective on a desktop setup. Expression pedal compatibility and CV sync extend the creative range further, enabling real time speed control or tight synchronisation to external tempo sources and DAW clocks.

Control over the effect is straightforward and musical. The three way Mode toggle selects Kill, Burst or Activate. The Burst Speed knob sets the rate, with the bi colour LED reflecting tempo for quick visual reference on stage. A side mounted Polarity slide switch determines whether Burst engages as a kill or activate function. The CTRL input and selector allow connection of a 5K to 10K expression pedal via TRS, or CV clock via standard instrument cable, with an internal dip switch assigning the correct mode before connection. This makes shaping and adapting the pedal to different rigs simple and reliable.

At its core is a completely redesigned active circuit developed specifically for the CopperSound Pedals Telegraph V2. Unlike the original passive edition, the powered architecture enables the automated Burst function while maintaining strong signal integrity. In the event of power loss, the pedal reverts to passive killswitch operation, ensuring performance continuity and peace of mind on stage.

The all metal enclosure and hardware provide solid durability for regular gigging. The Carolina Copper finish combines the distinctive Telegraph aesthetic with clear, easy to read labelling. The bi colour LED integrated with the speed control offers instant visual feedback of rate and operational status, particularly useful in darker environments.

True bypass preserves the integrity of the signal when the pedal is disengaged. Side mounted input, output and CTRL jacks, along with a side mounted DC input, make pedalboard placement straightforward and tidy.

Backed by a limited lifetime warranty from CopperSound Pedals, the Telegraph V2 Carolina Copper stands out as a versatile, performance focused killswitch and stutter system. For players seeking precise rhythmic control, expressive tempo manipulation and dependable build quality in one compact unit, it offers a distinctive and highly usable addition to any modern rig.
