The new compact stompbox from SolidGoldFX is a modulated ambient reverb called the Ether. It features a unique circuit that's a wonderful blend of shimmering ambient reverb and three types of modulation. The full-bodied ambient reverb side of things features decay, color, and level controls, along with a shimmer mode built around a special algorithm that devolves the effect as it decays for haunting, dissonant tones. On the modulation side, each of the three modes (vibrato, tremolo, and harmonic-tremolo) feature three different LFO shapes as well as tap tempo. "Ambient bliss is only a stomp away," SolidGoldFX promises.
