Empress Effects Reverb

A stereo multi-mode reverb pedal with MIDI, presets, control voltage and more. Realistic simulations of spaces, as well as never-before-heard surreal ambiances, are represented with stunning sound quality. Sporting stereo ins and outs, a small footprint and all the controls at your fingertips, it strikes the perfect balance of control and ease of use, avoiding laborious menus.

Presets, the versatile control port and MIDI open up a world of possibilities for live performances. Whether you're looking for a classic spring, a realistic room or new sonic flavours to expand your creativity, this pedal delivers. And it's got a beer mode.

Details

• 32 studio-quality algorithms as of firmware 6.0 and counting — 12 algorithm types, some with multiple variations (vintage and studio plate, dark and bright springs). More algorithms can be added via the SD card.
• Pristine classic sounds — hall, plate, spring and room sounds that rival or surpass studio units costing many times more.
• Ambient sounds — a complete palette of tweakable ambient textures for the creative player.
• Easy to use and fast to dial in — all algorithm controls sit on a knob in front of you, no laborious menus.
• Tap functions — many algorithms have infinite hold settings or the ability to tap in delay time.
• Low-noise signal path — signal-to-noise ratio of >104dB with an analog dry path maintained.
• Up to 35 presets — with three stomp switches, accessing them is easy. Bank style or scrolling style preset modes.
• True bypass and buffered bypass — configurable, so you can keep your trails.
• Cabinet simulator — 3 variations, perfect for recording, practising or gigs without an amp.
• Output transformer — hum-free stereo operation with two amps; output 2 is isolated to eliminate ground loops.
• High-quality audio — 48kHz sampling, 24-bit conversion, 32-bit internal processing.
• Analog dry path — dry signal left untouched and blended with the wet signal using a VCA, so no zipper noise.
• Unsurpassed connectivity — the Universal Control Port takes an expression pedal, external tap switch, control voltage, external audio input and MIDI, all on a standard 1/4" jack.
• Advanced configuration menu — set bypass type, 0–35 presets, MIDI configuration, control port behaviour, preset system style, input signal pad, output transformer and more.
