Tremolo and reverb have been paired together for decades – from
vintage amp tremolo and spring reverb to modern ambient tones - because
they do something simple and musical: one adds motion, the other adds
dimension.
Pathways builds on that familiar idea with a wider
range of textures, moving from tight, immediate sounds to expansive
ambience. The result is a pedal that feels natural for vintage tones,
always-on essentials, and modern soundscapes.
7 Reverb & Echo Engines
Pathways
brings together seven reverb and echo voices inspired by the most
enduring ambient guitar sounds - from classic tube amp springs and
vintage outboard units to studio-grade reverbs and early tape echo. Each
voice is tuned to feel musical under the fingers, with a distinct
response and sense of space that fits naturally into real playing
situations
3 Tremolo Voices
Pathways
features three tremolo voices based on classic modulation styles that
have shaped guitar tone for generations. From defined rhythmic pulse to
smooth, flowing movement and more complex tonal modulation, each mode
offers a distinct way to bring motion and expression into your playing.

Sounds Great Right Away

or deep editing required. Dedicated controls for Reverb Time, Tone,
Reverb Mix, Trem Speed, and Trem Depth give you direct access to the
most important adjustments without requiring external editing.
Separate
Reverb and Tremolo/Tap footswitches allow each effect to be engaged
independently. The Tremolo/Tap footswitch also supports tap tempo,
while the Beat Division switch provides quarter-note, eighth-note, and
triplet subdivisions.
