Coldcraft Effects Echoverberator

The Coldcraft Effects Echoverberator is a parallel delay and reverb effects pedal that combines warm, organic echoes with lush, responsive reverb in one unit. Instead of chaining delay into reverb, the design runs both effects in parallel, so the reverb doesn't wash out the echoes and the echo repeats stay clear and distinct. It offers Reverb-Always-On Mode, Momentary Bypass Mode, and tape-style modulation on the echo for subtle wow and flutter, with a hybrid buffered input/output and trails-on bypass to help retain tone and ambiance even when disengaged¹.

What it does

The Echoverberator's defining feature is its routing. Instead of chaining delay into reverb, the design runs both effects in parallel, so the reverb doesn't wash out the echoes and the echo repeats stay clear and distinct¹. On a conventional series setup, long reverb tails can smear delay repeats together; the parallel arrangement keeps the two effects separate in the signal path, which is why players looking for both a delay and a reverb voice in one box sometimes seek this kind of circuit out.

RockBoard's PedalPedia describes the sound as warm, organic echoes with lush, responsive reverb¹.

Modes and bypass

The pedal includes three player-facing features beyond the basic delay and reverb voices¹:

• Reverb-Always-On Mode, which keeps the reverb layer active when the effect is otherwise disengaged
• Momentary Bypass Mode, for momentary access rather than latching on and off
• Tape-style modulation on the echo, for subtle wow and flutter character on the repeats

A hybrid buffered input/output and trails-on bypass help retain tone and ambiance even when the pedal is disengaged¹. Trails-on bypass means the delay and reverb tails are allowed to decay naturally after you switch the pedal off, rather than being cut off abruptly.

Power

The Echoverberator runs on 9V DC, center negative¹, the standard pedalboard supply arrangement.
