The Catalinbread Soft Focus Ghost is a captivating shoegaze reverb pedal that introduces a unique phase-shifting element to your soundscape. Building on the original Soft Focus, this version replaces the Symph knob with the innovative Ghost control, weaving a nontraditional phase shifter into the mix. Unlike typical modulation effects that can overwhelm your tone, the Ghost control enhances your signal subtly, adding depth and texture without losing clarity. The pedal also features chorus, plate reverb, input gain, and a full wet-dry mix, offering a versatile palette for creating lush, immersive sound environments.
Inspired by the quirks of the FX500B bass unit, the Soft Focus Ghost channels the spirit of vintage gear with a modern twist. The pedal’s phase shifter ties rate and depth to a single control, delivering quicker, deeper modulation at higher settings and gentler effects at slower speeds. The Mod knob serves as a master depth control for all modulation effects, allowing precise shaping of your sound. Whether you’re after shimmering ambient textures or subtle enhancements, the Soft Focus Ghost offers a rich, dynamic experience that breathes life into your playing.
Designed for flexibility and tonal exploration, the Soft Focus Ghost also includes a Mix control for blending wet and dry signals, a Verb knob to adjust reverb decay time, and a Vol control that adds input gain or acts as a clean boost in buffer/trails mode. The pedal runs on a 9 to 18-volt DC power supply, giving you the option to increase headroom and output by using higher voltages. This pedal is perfect for musicians seeking to expand their sonic horizons with a sophisticated yet approachable reverb and modulation effect.
