After an extremely well received showing at the NAMM show in January 2017, Empress Effects has announced the release date for their Echosystem pedal. According to Empress Effects COO Dan Junkins, “They should begin shipping on May 4 th, 2017”. Here’s a few highlights of what to expect when the Echosystem hits the streets:

Spanning the gambit of known delay possibilities and beyond, the Echosytem could be the ultimate delaycrafting tool. Faithful emulations of classics like digital, tape and analog delays are numerous, as well as Empress' own take on each of these delay styles. Moving beyond the traditional, the vast amount of sonic ground the Echosystem can cover becomes apparent. Check out the ambient modes when you're feeling chilled out, or perhaps visit the multi tap modes for a taste of inspiration.

The Dual Engine functionality allows any 2 of these delays to be used together, routed in parallel, series, or left/right configurations. In addition to delays, there's the super-useful reverb combos, which will elevate any guitar part. Oh, and don't forget Whisky mode, best accompanied by a dram of whatever you've got!
