The Aether is a modulating delay pedal.  

 

The initial vision for the design of The Aether came shortly after the release of the Wardenclyffe Deluxe.  I wanted to steal design philosophies and incorporate tonal characteristics that made the Wardenclyffe so special, but this time as a delay pedal.  

 

At the heart of The Aether is a PT2399, tap tempo delay.  It has the standard Echo, Feedback, and Time controls you would expect on any delay, but what makes it special is the Color, Saturation, and Degrade Controls.  The Color toggle completely changes the character of the Aether and has two voices: Warm Analog and Bright Tape.  The Saturation knob is a gain adjustment that overdrives the delay chip.  In my opinion, the PT2399 chip takes gain and drive better than any other chip.  The Degrade toggle adds lofi textures and artifacts to the delay line.  The Degrade toggle removes a very vital section of the delay circuitry that keeps the delay stable with longer delay times.  As you increase the delay time, the artifacts become more present and lofi.  

 

The Aether uses a simple, but versatile modulation LFO core inspired by the Wardenclyffe, but with more features.  The LFO cores sets it apart from other modulated delays out there.  The speed of the modulation core can be set 3 different ways:  Rate knob, tap tempo tact switch, and Sync toggle.  When the Sync toggle is set to its middle position, the LFO can run at whatever speed you want. When the Sync toggle is in the up position it is synced to the delay time.  When the Sync toggle is in the down position, it is synced to delay time, but in half-time for slower evolving moduation.  The Shift knob determines the depth of the modulation and I promise that this has plenty of range in case you want to get really obscene.  The Stray toggle changes the LFO from a typical Sine wave to a Slewed Random waveform.  Creative exploration of the modulation section of The Aether is strongly encouraged.  The way the delay rate and LFO rate interact with each other can yield very creative results.

started fogging up inside after a couple of swimming sessions
Color: Black
Unfortunately, my watch started fogging up inside after just a couple of normal swimming sessions. I rinsed it with fresh water every time afterward and dried it with a towel, but later noticed moisture building up inside, and now I have to put it in rice to pull the condensation out. On the other hand, it’s hard to find good-looking classic-style watches with tide information, so I might just keep it as an everyday accessory rather than a watch for swimming.

Great watch for a great price.
Color: Green/Green
Watch is well made and keeps time accurate. Easy to charge and just keeps going. No surprises. If you like what you see and want a solar watch go for it. Sapphire Glass too.

It was too good to be true
Color: Tan
I spoke too soon. Like with every Timex, this one was faulty, too. When the seconds hand reaches the 12 o'clock position (indicating the start of a new minute), the minutes hand should align precisely with a minute marker. That's how it should be. However, in the case of this particular watch, the minutes hand consistently lags behind, meaning it does not align correctly with the minute marker when the seconds hand hits the 12. No matter how precisely I align the minute hand when resetting the time, the minute hand eventually misaligns. Timex, I give up. ORIGINAL REVIEW: "Wow. After receiving 3 faulty, shoddily built Timex watches in a row, color me impressed. This looks good, feels good, and operates well. This is a great cheap alternative to the Khaki Field watch, IMO. The case is made of steel, not brass like many Timex watches. The glass is mineral, but here's something many watch enthusiasts don't tell you—mineral glass is more impact-resistant than sapphire crystal. Since you want a field watch to have more impact-resistant features, I'm okay with mineral glass. And here's the final bonus... the second hand actually hits all the markers. This may not be your experience, but with the one I got, it's hitting the marks perfectly. A lot of collectors obsess over specifications way too much. For me, as long as the watch functions properly, aesthetics and design are most important. And this watch has it. In person, this watch just looks really, really good. And for the price I got it at, it checks off the spec sheet too. Now, let's see how it holds up over time."

Too small
Color: Tan
I have small wrists and this was too small even for me. It also seems a bit cheap compared to my other Timex and Casio.
