New Alexander Now We Are Ghosts Reverb Guitar Effects Pedal

From Alexander:

The city remained, its familiar corners etched in shadow, its streets whispering with memories no living souls carried. Our laughter had vanished into cracks in the pavement, leaving only silence where voices once lingered. Now we are ghosts.

Now We Are Ghosts started as an attempt to create a synthesizer out of a reverb. Start with the familiar filter, envelope generators, low-frequency oscillators, and voltage-controlled amplifiers. Then replace the voltage-controlled oscillators with the reverb voice. The result is a complex exploration of sonic space with lots of unique opportunities for creative mayhem.

From the designer: I have been working on this pedal for more than a year, including early prototypes shown off in early 2025. The art is by the incredibly talented Conrad Keely. I leveraged the form factor of Forget-Me-Not with lots of knobs and switches to facilitate real-time control, which helps this pedal feel really immediate and fun. My only rule for this design was that every control had to do something cool. — Matthew Farrow
