Alexander Pedals · pedal
The Alexander Pedals Now We Are Ghosts is a stereo reverb pedal conceived as a synthesizer built from a reverb — routing reverb voices through a multimode filter, envelope generator, and LFO. Controls include Decay, Space, Dirt (saturation and instability on the reverb tail), Warble (three pitch instability levels), a multimode resonant filter with Frequency and Resonance, a Noise section with three types (Trash, Pop, Hum) for analog artifact injection, an auto-swell Sense control with swell, gate, and ducking modes, and a rate-synced LFO with tap tempo and MIDI sync. Stereo I/O, 4 onboard presets, 32 MIDI presets. 399 USD.
