EarthQuaker Devices Ghost Echo Reverb

About this item

The Ghost Echo is our spooky take on the haunted* amp-top spring reverberation units of yesteryear. This creepy analog/digital spring reverb emulation machine boasts a terrifying 30ms ‰ÛÒ 150ms of pre-delay, controllable via the ‰ÛÏAttack‰۝ knob, for everything from a quick rockabilly slapback, to viscous pools of ectoplasmic reverberations. When playing staccato, you‰۪ll hear the tortured trails of the reverb, resulting in more of a slapback, or echo sound. Legato playing will reveal a massive ambient ‰ÛÏdepth‰۝ that fattens up the sound ‰ÛÒ and look out it‰۪s right behind you!

Phew, that was close. The ‰ÛÏDwell‰۝ control sets the length and thickness of the decay, which is to say that it controls how long the disembodied spirits of notes no longer with us float through the ether; and the ‰ÛÏDepth‰۝ sets the intensity of the reverb, which you probably know as the wet/dry mix, but we like to think of it more as how scary the overall effect is.

The Ghost Echo is true bypass, and built one at a time by a team of friendly ghosts in the never-ending hall of funhouse mirrors that is Akron, Ohio, USA.

EarthQuaker Devices Ghost Echo Controls:

• Depth: Sets reverb intensity
• Dwell: Adjusts the length and thickness of the decay
• Attack: Sets the delay of the pick attack on the wet signal from 30ms - 150ms

Power

EarthQuaker Devices pedals take a standard 9 volt DC power supply with a 2.1mm negative center barrel. EQD always recommend pedal-specific, transformer-isolated wall-wart power supplies or multiple isolated-output supplies. Pedals will make extra noise if there is ripple or unclean power. Switching-type power supplies, daisy chains and non-pedal specific power supplies do not filter dirty power as well and let through unwanted noise. Do not run at higher voltages!
