Empress Effects
Description
The Empress Tremolo2 is an original design built from the ground up to include innovative features without sacrificing tone. The audio signal path is analog, but the tremolo effect is controlled digitally via opto technology.

Tap tempo, selectable waveforms, a choice of 8 rhythms and a full preset system capable of storing up to 8 presets are all at your fingertips. The control port allows control over the Tremolo2 via external tap tempo, expression pedal, control voltage and MIDI, making the tremolo2 more powerful than ever!

    The best things here are the options. The multi port that is expression pedal or external tap pedal ready, 8 tremolo varieties, the choice to be able to switch seamlessly between presets, the ability to choose the number of presets, 3 tremolo waveforms, choose of buffered or true bypass, etc. It sounds great and cuts through a band mix very well. My only knock against it is that it doesn't have an eq knob like the EQD Nightwire and it doesn't quite sound as full as either the very rich Supro Tremolo which could actually be a good thing since it allows it to cut better in a live setting and recorded band mix. Overall, the best tremolo box I've played and many more options than any on board amplifier tremolo if just tonally a hair brighter. Get if you love switches, traditional and modern tremolo and gobs of possibilities. Skip it if you hate knobs and switches and check out Supro's Tremolo in a box instead. If you want a bit of each the EQD Nightwire is great too.
