After Nightverb, Erica Synths presents Echolocator, another compact desktop performance effects unit developed in collaboration with 112db. While Echolocator borrows Nightverb’s aluminum enclosure with lots of knobs for tweaking, it’s a whole different animal: a digital stereo delay with a bunch of tricks up its sleeve.
All important parameters are directly accessible. In addition to standard delay parameters such as Time(including Tap Tempo), Feedback, Mix, and Ping Pong, you’ll find a built-in resonant filter. The delay can also be modulated. Furthermore, there’s a Freeze function, as well as an adjustable Shimmer parameter.
In addition to this, Echolocator offers an integrated pitch shifter and a one-knob reverb. While real-time tweaking is obviously the main focus here, the device is also fully MIDI-controllable. It comes with 30 presets and 70 memory slots for user settings, which can be exported via USB.
On the back, Echolocator has stereo inputs and outputs and a configurable footswitch jack – perfect if you don’t have your hands free during a performance. There’s also MIDI in/out and a USB port.
Price and Availability
You can now order Erica Synths Echolocator from Thomann* for $521 / £488 / €569. Erica Synths says that the delay will begin shipping on 17 March 2025.
