Is the mod still offered??? I want it bad!

I was going to say Goatkeeper really is your one stop. lol

I think it is, just had mine updated a couple months back. It's $50 for preset mod and you also get an expression update that let's it control either rate or depth depending on which you choose at power up.

Chek out the Catalinbread Tap Tempo Semaphore, loads of waveforms. Also has synch jack for slaving with your other tap tempo peds. Has a really nice tonez too.

Yeah, the Semaphore seems to be a good option, but man, the presets on the Empress... :)

I love the diamond Trem. Between the wave shapes, the rhythmic patterns, and the tap tempo it's super versatile. My favorite setting is the chaos rhythm with a super fast tempo.

2011 I A/B'd the Diamond, Empress and a Red Witch. I thought the Diamond and the Empress were far better than the Red Witch, and I dug the Empress more than the Diamond, although both are good. Bought the Empress and it hasn't left my board since. Wouldn't mind a V2, but you can't use the presets with tap tempo.

You can also use the Chase Bliss Warped Vinyl as a trem... and it has presets...

I didn't think about using that as a Trem. Wow that could awesome. I may try that one out.

Just got this today. It is the real ordeal. Matched with the A/DA Flanger, Demo Tape Fuzz, and some Flickinger Spaghetti Western verb, I can make sweet sounds reminiscent of being in some sort of insect infested cave with an ever present threat of being eaten alive.

In conclusion, fuck the Empress 2.

Did you research this vs. their other tremulator? Or what ever it's called. :thumb:

Yeah, I looked at the other one too, but I liked the Taff much much better.

I am sure I can get a clip up.

Here is a pretty unhelpful clip, but I thought I would post it anyway. I can make another later that shows off more of it. Its a pretty neat pedal.

I had my Moog CP-251 plugged into it, but my settings weren't really that extreme at the filming of this clip, so it is not really affecting it that much. You can get some cool things going with it though.

Pretty sweet unit. I really like their bitcruher/delay, Wish it were decked out in those wooden side panels. That whole lineup looks really interesting.
Thnks for the clip, keep them comming :thumb:

Yeah I liked your clip of that delay. I would like to get it but I may just experiment to see if I can achieve a similar effect by placing a bitcrusher in the fx loop of one of my current delays.

I often use the oto biscuit in the f/x loop of a Moogerfooger 104. Insane textures. Quite different from the dreadbox though.

I just got the Empress Tremolo2 on my hands and man, that thing is really useful and too much fun! I love the size, shape and the different LED colors for each preset. I didn't like the switches and the awkward power jack placement.

Thanks to my gf and the 15% discount of Prymaxe :hobbes:
