The Qi Etherealizer (pronounced “chee ethereal-izer”), a collaborative creation with Yvette Young, is a multi-effects pedal that combines Chorus, Delay, Granular effects, and, of course, Reverb, into a creative playground for atmospheric exploration. Mix and match the chorus, delay, and grain and run in series or parallel to create your own inspiring universe of possibility in a stereo field. With the ability to save presets and bypass the chorus, delay, and grain controls, you can quickly and instantly change settings by simultaneously pressing the Bypass and Freeze stomp switches. Go from a traditional chorus with a little bit of delay, or go all in and let the Qi take over with unexplainable washes of glitchy and lush ambiance. Whatever your style is, the Qi will give it a new life.

The Qi Etherealizer allows players to mix and match Chorus, Delay, and Granular effects, running them in either series or parallel configurations to create a vast universe of sonic possibilities. Whether you’re crafting a traditional chorus with a hint of delay or exploring glitchy, ethereal washes of sound, the Qi offers unparalleled flexibility and instant inspiration. The pedal features intuitive controls that let players save up to three onboard presets (127 via MIDI) plus a live mode.

Inside, the Qi includes the debut of Walrus Audio’s own proprietary digital processing platform, MDSP, setting a new standard in high-fidelity audio and innovative design. At its core is the powerful ARM-based Cortex M7 processor, enabling sophisticated algorithms in a compact, modular form that adapts to various pedal formats. With a superior audio codec and advanced processing capabilities, MDSP ensures unmatched performance, offering limitless creative possibilities for musicians and audio professionals. The introduction of MDSP reflects Walrus Audio’s commitment to providing creators with cutting-edge tools that inspire innovation and creativity.
