Wampler Catacombs

Wampler Catacombs

From Brian Wampler:

Ever since I first picked up a guitar, I've been chasing the perfect sound—a quest that led me to build pedals in the first place. One challenge kept coming up, both for me and the countless musicians I've talked to: the struggle to have a wide range of sounds with complex editing capabilities while keeping the pedal interface manageable. We either compromise on versatility or sacrifice precious space. I knew there had to be a better way. That's why I created the Catacombs - a pedal that eliminates the compromise altogether. It packs 11 of the most popular delay and reverb sounds into one intuitive, powerful package.Whether you're after a trusty digital delay and a plate reverb or a musical shimmer and a spaced out echo - we have you covered!

The team at Wampler have worked for a long time on ensuring Catacombs will become an indispensable part of your rig. You can run one of six delay and one of five reverb programs together simultaneously. Each program offers tap-tempo control and can be saved into one of the pedal's eight onboard preset locations for instant recall. Delays and reverbs can be run in Mono, Stereo, in parallel or in series. It's like having a studio's worth of delay and reverb effects right at your feet.

But it doesn’t end there - the pedal also comes with a complete software version as a plugin for your DAW in AAX, AU, and VST3 format for both Mac and PC. The Catacombs plugin is FREE to all customers that register their Warranty online (plugin suite is $49.99 if purchased separately).
