Description
The city remained, its familiar corners etched in shadow, its streets whispering with memories no living souls carried. Our laughter had vanished into cracks in the pavement, leaving only silence where voices once lingered. Moving through the empty avenues, belonging nowhere.

Now we are ghosts
The device is a small metal box, humming faintly, remembering songs it can’t quite play. when activated, it releases long uneven tones that pass between distortion and clarity. Its voice floats on air, hollow and fragile. Exhaling into the void, its heartbeat replaced by an echo.
Now We Are Ghosts started as an attempt to create a synthesizer out of a reverb. Start with the familiar filter, envelope generators, low-frequency oscillators, and voltage-controlled amplifiers. Then replace the voltage-controlled oscillators with the reverb voice. The result is Now We Are Ghosts. It’s a complex exploration of sonic space with lots of unique opportunities for creative mayhem.
From the designer: I have been working on this pedal for more than a year, including some early prototypes that I showed off back in early 2025. It’s been through three name changes and three different graphic designs, but now we’ve finally arrived at something that is really special. The art is by the incredibly talented Conrad Keely, and I couldn’t be happier with the way the whole package turned out. I’ve leveraged the form factor of Forget-Me-Not with lots of knobs and switches to facilitate real-time control, which helps this pedal feel really immediate and fun. My only rule for this design was that every control had to do something cool. I hope you enjoy this.— Matthew Farrow
