Wampler Catacombs Reverb and Delay Pedal

Reverb and Delay in a Compact Pedal without Compromise.

Ever since Wampler first picked up a guitar, they've been chasing the perfect sound—a quest that led them to build pedals in the first place. One challenge kept coming up, both for them and the countless musicians they've talked to: the struggle to have a wide range of sounds with complex editing capabilities while keeping the pedal interface manageable. They either compromise on versatility or sacrifice precious space. Wampler knew there had to be a better way. That's why they created the Catacombs - a pedal that eliminates the compromise altogether. It packs 11 of the most popular delay and reverb sounds into one intuitive, powerful package. Whether you're after a trusty digital delay and a plate reverb or a musical shimmer and a spaced out echo - we have you covered!

The team at Wampler have worked for a long time on ensuring Catacombs will become an indispensable part of your rig. You can run one of six delay and one of five reverb programs together simultaneously. Each program offers tap-tempo control and can be saved into one of the pedal's eight onboard preset locations for instant recall. Delays and reverbs can be run in Mono, Stereo, in parallel or in series. It's like having a studio's worth of delay and reverb effects right at your feet.

But it doesn’t end there - the pedal also comes with a complete software version as a plugin for your DAW in AAX, AU, and VST3 format for both Mac and PC.


Legendary Delays

With six delay programs, you can feel the warmth and depth of analog delays (ANLG), the harmonic nuances of a Bucket Brigade Device delay (BBD), or the nostalgic modulated vibe of classic artisanal tape and mechanical delays (TAPE). Feeling adventurous? The other-worldly Echo-Space Delay (SPC) awaits. The favorite Wampler Faux Tape Echo (FTE) and an accurate recreation of the classic 2290 digital delay (DIGI) also feature.


Iconic Reverbs

The Catacombs houses five finely tuned reverb programs. With just a twist of a knob, you’ll discover expansive halls (HALL), a warm vintage plate (PLT), and that classic spring reverb (SPR) with plenty of “drip.” The shimmer reverb (SHMR) allows a whole new layer of sonic texture, especially when paired with an expression pedal, and the intimate ambiance of the ROOM setting creates that perfect studio reverb.


Stompbox-like Control

Like the Terraform and Metaverse before it, the Catacombs is designed to be as quick to dial in as possible. We replaced confusing menus and fiddly touch screens with clearly marked knobs you can adjust on the fly. Controls for Time, Feedback, Modulation, and Level (with Alt functions for each effect type) put all the essential tools right at your fingertips. Each setting offers tap-tempo control and can be easily saved into one of the pedal’s eight front panel preset locations for instant recall. It’s like having a studio’s worth of delay effects right at your feet.


Digital Power with an Analog Soul

The Catacombs uses a high-performance DSP engine to bring each effect to life with authentic character, and gives you eight front panel preset locations where you can save and instantly recall your favorite settings. If you’re looking to expand even further, you can access up to 128 presets with full MIDI control, it has configurable mono and stereo routing, a parallel or series switch, and an assignable expression pedal input to control any parameter (or multiple parameters).
