The Ethereal’s conception came about as a solution to guitarists who

wanted access to complex and exquisite ambient textures, but with

the easy of use and functionality that doesn’t require a college degree

to operate. Reverb and Delay have always been used in tandem, and

it seemed logical for the next step to be to combine the two to create

the ultimate ambient dream pedal, in a pedalboard friendly design.

Flexibility is key for being able to craft the perfect soundscape at any

given moment, so Brian set out to create something that would sound

amazing but still be easily tweakable in a live setting or in the studio.

For the sake of flexibility, the Mix knobs on the Ethereal allow you to

create the perfect blend for each of the delay and reverb signals,

making the ambient textures tumble over your signal in the most

glorious way while still retaining your full and beautiful analog tone.

This gives the player easy access to fine tune their ambient textures

to sit just right in the mix quickly and intuitively.

Along with the gorgeous ambient tones available, the Ethereal was

designed to also be a workhorse for players who want a simplified

way to get a basic delay and reverb into a single effect without crowd-

ing up already congested pedalboards. It’s quite easy to dial in a basic

single delay line with a bit of reverb to to fatten up your lead lines, or

to add extra depth to a very dry room.

The controls are quite simple and intuitive, and no matter how you set

any of the knobs and switch, it’s possible to craft some gorgeous

textures that will take your tone to a completely different dimension.

The Ethereal has 5 knobs and 1 switch: Delay, Feedback, Tone, Delay

Mix, Reverb Mix, and a Delay Mode switch, along with a button on

the side to turn Trails mode on and off. As you would expect with a

Wampler, the signal path is untouched, we split the signal, place the

effect on one only, then lay it back on top of the original. This way

your clean tone, the tone you love of your guitar, remains completely

untouched and most importantly, unchanged.

To get the most out of your new pedal, you'll want to become very familiar with the controls. For full explanations, please see below. Suggested Settings Bypass Switch – A relay based true-bypass footswitch that ensures that your signal is unaffected when not in trails (side button OUT) mode. When you tap the footswitch the Ethereal is completely bypassed and any repeats or reverb immediately cuts off.
