FWIW, I really, really like it.
I usually don't recommend devices because it's too subjective.
Depends on your needs.

But this pedal is a smart buy to me.

The big thing is that I know the Empress team is committed to continuing to expand it.
I'll be making more short videos of the new algorithms as they come out.

Same... I think this will end in getting the Empress so I can "compare" the two and ending up with both for literally no justifiable reasons.

This thing sounds really impressive. I usually don't fork over a lot for pedals but this is tempting to save up the $450.

If i was the kind of person who dropped that much money on a reverb pedal, this would definitely be more enticing than the Strymon Big Sky, but might lose out to the Space. Still, gorgeous demo, as always, thank you.

I wonder how bad the noise floor is on it. The WoP made me a little cautious when it comes to non-fuzz pedals from DC. Care to chime in on that, Knobbie?

Can you run the empress pre/post with the stereo jacks? Ghost mode would be sick pushing dirt but I'd feel limited with it in one spot.

Knobs should do a vid on the EHX 8 step, I'm so curious to hear what he comes up with it. :V

The Wizard is the only non-fuzz pedal of ours with a noise floor. The Twin Stags and Happiness shouldn't have any hiss or the like.
