What's a ZOIA? The ZOIA is a modular synthesiser in pedal form. Instead of being a delay or a tremolo, it gives you the modules to build a delay or a tremolo from the ground up. Because you're the one building it, you can make it do whatever you want. With the ZOIA you can build your own custom effects, synthesisers, MIDI controllers and virtual pedalboards. Empress have made life a little easier by including pre-built modules for standard guitar effects, so if you want a phaser you can just drop a phaser in. (If you fancy building one out of all-pass filters from first principles, you can do that too.) Features 80+ modules and counting: build almost anything you can dream up. Create your own effects, synths, control devices and more from oscillators, LFOs, filters, bit crushers, envelope followers and dozens more building blocks. 20+ ready-made effects modules: reverbs, delays, choruses, flangers, overdrives and more, prebuilt for you. Up to 64 patches, saved and recalled on the fly. Swap and share patches via the ZOIA community at patchstorage.com. SD card included: firmware updates add modules and features, and let you back up patches. OLED display for on-pedal editing of every module and parameter. Control Port and MIDI: dedicated control port plus 1/8" MIDI in and out (1/8"-to-MIDI dongles included) to hook up external hardware. Customisable patch recall: scrolling- or bank-style preset modes on the on-board stompswitches. Built-in help function gives quick reference on modules and options. High-quality audio: 48kHz sampling, 24-bit conversion, 32-bit internal processing. Low-noise signal path: >105dB signal-to-noise ratio. Held in stock at the Windsor shop.
