You need an Earthquaker Devices Transmisser. I have one on every board, and tried to recreate it with my FX8. Great pedal.

Also a Freeze. Hard for me to recommend EHX these days, but the Freese is still the best in class. I hated the TC Electronic Infinite. I still have yet to try the Gamechanger one though.
 
I like doing stuff similar to that. Always use delay (usually DIG, Dispatch Master, DM101) and a looper. I'll create an initial loop, volume swell lots of harmonics over it. Usually add a soft melody with a harmony. Sometimes create a 2nd loop that takes it somewhere else, maybe a bit more sparse, darker. Play over all that while toggling loops.

Probably not what you're thinking, but here's some of the stuff I made up kind of ambientish...
Couple simple ones:

Not so ambient, similar idea:

Layers of guitar with touches of synth:

This came about playing with the El Capistan, feedback on the delay cranked way up:

More random ones. Got a bunch more that are just soundscapes, without much playing over them.

This one has a recurring theme with some freaky cool stuff in the middle, around 4 minute mark:

So, this sounds goofy as can be, but honestly - I pop on the Strymon Nightsky and that's pretty much all I need. A single pedal. A monster of a pedal too btw.....

I have a TimeLine that is wonderful as well but I tend to not even need to stack delays with the Nightsky to all of a sudden be in some weird cinema-esque soundscape.

My amp has a wonderful spring reverb tank on it and I have a supa trem Jr, etc but that Strymon is a crazy pedal and it can do a ton of stuff. Cost as much as a whole board though!!!
 
...with spare unused pedals from my pedal storage bin.

I like creating long winding, hypnotic trance like ambient soundscapes but haven't done it in awhile.
I'll be replacing the tuner and Fab pedal spots with other pedals eventually. I'll be using the Vox channel on the Nano Legacy floor amp, which I really like.

The idea is to have another avenue of expression separate from my high gain rig because I really don't want them integrated. That way I can just plug this board directly into a speaker cabinet and run it as it's own independent thing. I could always A/B the two rigs, but only if I have the desire and can incorporate both genres together. Just need to order an isolated power supply to properly handle the digital pedals involved.

That is a really clean looking setup. I really enjoy the Fab pedals! I had an echo I loved that I gave away years later to spread the love......

Wish I would have kept it! They never used it and that thing sounded really cool.
 
Talking about spare pedals.....
I also have that same Digi delay I just remembered.

Maybe I will take inspiration from this and build a board with some pedals I have floating around.

I always thought the tera echo has some cool sounds in it from the stuff I have heard online, but have never gotten my hands on one in person.
