I can hear why this pedal is so popular. Honestly, Earthquaker should feel honored that they have finally been “paid tribute to” by DemonFX. 😂😂

Yeah it straddles a cool line I didn't even know I wanted to cross
I didn't know ghost echos were so expensive for our friends across the pond. Its a really good reverb. I made a vid on it. I got a deluxe reverb amp but I still have my ghost echo in the line. Its a digital pedal and it has a specific "springy" voice can probably be emulated cheaper without much trouble if someone knows what it's doing. I'm just surprised to see someone would go through the trouble to copy it. I thought they were quite cheap. Think I bought mine for like 99 USD.

I just got one of these yesterday. it sort of sounded close to the Afterneath. I thought it would be more of a springy effect but it's not really. It is it's own thing really. The pre-delay acts like an echo so its sounds like a delay pedal. With only three knobs you will be able to dial in a usable tone in a few minute, unlike the Afterneath.

Yeah it's kind of ethereal sounding with hints of classic reverb in there somewhere. You can get as subtle or crazy as you like without much hassle with this I found 👍
This might just be one of their best pedals yet. Still wish they'd change the artwork though 😆

I couldn't say unfortunately, I only had this for a few weeks on loan and it's gone back now. It feels like a Belton brick, but it could quite as easily just be pure dsp. Might be worth checking on the web to see if anyone has pics of it opened up 👍
Never owned this but I did have a EQD Levitation, sold it to get a big fancy reverb. Hope they rip off the Levitation next lol Belton Brick reverbs have a cool sound to them.

Not really, it kind of does a mid grind between a delay and a reverb. It's not quite as precise as a normal delay but does maybe ambient tones. Hope that explains it 👍

Can the oscillation be set so it's on the edge making its noise but staying in the background and no go full on runaway so you could use it as a kinda drone in the background while playing?

I assume if you are better at using the mix control than me, you'd probably be able to. I didn't get that myself but I'm not much of a drone user 👍
