The Talisman Ghost expands on our original Talisman pedal by simulating two EMT 140 plates in modulated tandem, adding a chorus-like effect to the reverb trail.

The Talisman Ghost takes a step outside of even that framework to answer the question: What would happen if you configured two EMT 140 plate units to work in modulated tandem? The result is a luscious chorus-like effect, applied only to the reverb trail. This ground-up reimagining took a careful look at the diffusion characteristics of a real EMT 140, bolstered by the luxury of having a second 600-pound behemoth running in parallel, which most studios did not.

This tasteful modulation dramatically opens up the spatial effect of the reverb by giving you the sound of two plates co mingling with one another in satisfying ways. This serves up a slick post-process doubling effect that lends a sense of dynamics to a normally static reverb decay.

The Talisman can be powered by any centre-negative 9–18V DC power supply that is designed for use with effect pedals and can provide at least 100mA of current. When powering multiple pedals with one supply, make sure that the current rating of the power supply is greater than the sum of all the individual pedals' current draws.
