INTRODUCTION

We're stoked you've chosen to make the Empress Echosystem

part of your sound! We hope you use it to create new and

amazing sonic textures. In time, those sounds may make you a

superstar. At which point, we hope you remember us and invite

us back stage so we can impress our wives and children.

QUICKSTART

All modes are designed to sound good with all knobs at 12 o'clock.

Start there and then tweak to taste. Here’s a few others to try too.

Clean Digital Delay –Dotted Eighths

Warm Analog Delay

Delay and Reverb

Echoplex

Controls at a Glance

mode selector: selects which

mode is active. Each mode can

have many submodes which are

indicated by dierent color LEDs.

when using dual engines, press

to switch active engine.

engines: press to cycle through

the 4 dierent routing modes.

hold tap and press engines to

send current tempo from the

active delay to the other delay

feedback: controls how long the

delay takes to decay.

shift +

engine - switch engine order

mode btn- solo active engine

knob(s) - assign exp pedal

scroll - save preset

tap - select delay time source

tap: tap to enter a delay time.

also used to engage a preset

that has been scrolled to with

the scroll stompswitch.

hold tap to temporarily set

innite repeats (in most modes).

release to return to knob setting.

scroll: press to scroll through

presets, then engage the preset

with the tap switch.

scroll + tap: will scroll

backwards through presets.

Controls at a Glance

thing 1 & thing 2: these two

controls take on dierent

functions depending on the

mode. They control things like

modulation depth and speed,

saturation, panning, lter, and

reverb controls

Check the mode reference chart

to see which function they

perform in a given mode.

mix: sets the ratio of wet signal

(delay) to dry signal (unaected).

Counterclockwise is 100% dry,

clockwise is 100% wet, with 50/50

being somewhere around 2 o’clock.

output: controls the overall

output volume for the pedal.

12 o’clock is unity.

delay time | ratio: controls

the delay time. in tap mode, it

controls the ratio of the delay

time relative to the tempo

that is tapped.

scroll: press to scroll through

presets, then engage the preset

with the tap switch.

tone: use to apply EQ to the

delay line. center is neutral. bypass: engage or bypass the

pedal. Can be set for true bypass

or buered bypass in advanced

conguration.

SETTING DELAY TIME

To change the delay time source, hold the shift button and

press the tap stompswitch.

DELAY TIME SOURCES

Local Tap (Tap LED shines Red): When the user taps in a tap

time, it gets scaled by the ratio knob, and is saved with the

preset.

Global Tap (Tap LED shines Blue): When the user taps in Global

Tap, it sets the global tap time. This Global Tap propagates to

any other modes running with Global Tap. If you load a new

preset that has Global Tap, it will use this time. Each preset and

engine applies its own ratio setting to the global tap time

making it easy to sync delays at musical ratios.

Knob (Tap LED shines Green): Turning the knob adjusts the

delay time from 20ms to 1.2s (in most modes).

MULTI-TAP

Multi-tap modes allow you to tap in a sequence of up to 5 taps.

The tap LED will blink the sequence tapped, with the ratio

applied, and then pause for 2 seconds. Multi-tap modes have

their own global tap.
