Walrus Audio Qi Etherealizer Terracotta Yvette Young Stereo Multi-Effects Pedal

General

Walrus Audio and math rock guitarist Yvette Young present the Qi Etherealizer: a stereo FX processor that wields chorus, delay, reverb and granular effects, plus 127 MIDI presets, tap tempo, and other tools for creating unique soundscapes. Play around with the mix (series) and dry (parallel) control to mash up the various effects and shape the same kind of modern textures Young is known for as part of the band she fronts, Covet. From a subtle chorus combined with delay to more wild-and-glitchy effects, this ultra-versatile stompbox opens up countless options for creative tone-tinkerers.

The Qi Etherealizer: Lush, Glitchy and Rhythmic Textures

The Qi Etherealizer has been fitted out with a decent number of knobs and switches, giving you full hands-on control over the sound. After dialling in the sound you're after, you can save it to one of three preset slots and quickly recall it when needed. If you plug in a matching pedal via the MIDI ports, you can even manage up to 127 presets. Tweak the Space pot to summon lush reverb, turn the Tone pot to sculpt the overall sound and then polish things off with the low-pass filter for synth-like vibes. Or you can activate the Grain Cloud and create unpredictable glitches before tweaking the density via the X control. For those more spatially-oriented modulation effects, you can turn to the built-in delay and chorus effects as well as the control-based features: tap-tempo, reverb-freeze and delay-oscillation.

Cortex M7 Processor for Advanced Audio Processing

The Walrus Audio Qi Etherealizer is based on the MDSP platform and is powered by a Cortex M7 processor, which not only offers advanced audio processing but an ocean of headroom, supporting the complex algorithms demanded by Young-style math-rock. Also, since this is the special Terracotta edition, it comes finished with artwork designed by Yvette herself. Add this stereo multi-effects pedal to your set-up and take your sound to a previously unimaginable dimension.
