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).
Legendary Delays
With six delay programs, you can feel the warmth and depth of analog delays (ANLG), the harmonic nuances of a Bucket Brigade Device delay (BBD), or the nostalgic modulated vibe of classic artisanal tape and mechanical delays (TAPE). Feeling adventurous? The other-worldly Echo-Space Delay (SPC) awaits. The favorite Wampler Faux Tape Echo (FTE) and an accurate recreation of the classic 2290 digital delay (DIGI) also feature.
Iconic Reverbs
The Catacombs houses five finely tuned reverb programs. With just a twist of a knob, you’ll discover expansive halls (HALL), a warm vintage plate (PLT), and that classic spring reverb (SPR) with plenty of “drip.” The shimmer reverb (SHMR) allows a whole new layer of sonic texture, especially when paired with an expression pedal, and the intimate ambiance of the ROOM setting creates that perfect studio reverb.
Stompbox-like Control
Like the Terraform and Metaverse before it, the Catacombs is designed to be as quick to dial in as possible. We replaced confusing menus and fiddly touch screens with clearly marked knobs you can adjust on the fly. Controls for Time, Feedback, Modulation, and Level (with Alt functions for each effect type) put all the essential tools right at your fingertips. Each setting offers tap-tempo control and can be easily saved into one of the pedal’s eight front panel preset locations for instant recall. It’s like having a studio’s worth of delay effects right at your feet.
Digital Power with an Analog Soul
The Catacombs uses a high-performance DSP engine to bring each effect to life with authentic character and gives you eight front panel preset locations where you can save and instantly recall your favorite settings. If you’re looking to expand even further, you can access up to 128 presets with full MIDI control, it has configurable mono and stereo routing, a parallel or series switch, and an assignable expression pedal input to control any parameter (or multiple parameters).
