General

Reverb pedals can produce gigantic sound but are rarely are a match for the software reverb available on your computer. The American-made Strymon blueSky Reverberator is equipped with a monstrously powerful SHARC-DSP (24 bit/96 kHz), which it uses every last bit of processing power to create plate, spring or room delays with enormous decay times and - very importantly - this blue stombox has an adjustable pre-delay.

The Base of the BlueSky

Select plate or spring or the modern room reverb, that exactly calculates the reverberation you would get in a real room. After that, you can set the reverb time with the decay and use the pre-delay pot to determine the time between the dry sound and the start of the reverb. The mix knob adjusts the balance between the effect and the (always analogue!) dry signal. The Low and High Damp let you set the level of low and high tones for the effect signal.

Three Modes, More Effects

Whether you're a guitarist, bass player, play another instrument altogether, or if you're the sound technician, the Strymon blueSky should keep you entertained for quite some time. The above settings alone allow for a veritable arsenal of sounds, from short and subtle to luscious and grand. However, the number of options is tripled with the Mode selector, so you can create chorus-like effects in Mod mode, or sparkling extra octaves in Shimmer mode!

Beste reverb die ik ooit heb gehad. Ik heb verschillende reverbs gehad, maar vond ze allemaal vrij "kunstmatig" klinken. Uiteindelijk heb ik besloten om Strymon een kans te geven en heb daar geen spijt van! Dit pedaal zal mijn board niet verlaten

Deze reverb is echt supergoed. Je kunt er korte reverb en hele lange, bijna orgel-achtige, geluiden mee produceren. Julien Baker is ook fan.

Beste reverb die ik ooit gebruikt heb! Ik ben zelf een singer-songwriter en met deze reverb wordt alles mooi opgevuld! Soms ben je precies in een kerk aan het spelen! En trouwens is de favorite knop heel handig als je je instellingen hebt aangepast en terug naar je vorige wilt! Geweldig effect!

Heel fijn reverb pedaal! Ontzettend veelzijdig maar toch heel eenvoudig te bedienen. Deze hemelse reverb kan (vooral in combinatie met een goede delay) prachtige pad-achtige geluiden maken. Hij is wel prijzig maar hij is het wat mij betreft meer dan waard. You can't put a price on heaven!

Geweldige reverb. Zeer eenvoudig te bedienen en enorm veel mogelijkheden wat betreft instellingen. Voor ambient muziek, ideaal. In stereo is dit pedaal helemaal geweldig, een mooi vol en breed geluid. Ik heb meerdere reverbs, maar deze is veruit, naar mijn mening, het mooist.

Wauw

Na lang wikken en wegen toch 350 euro aan 1 effect uitgegeven, en meer dan tevreden met de keuze.

de strymon blueSky zit boordevol ambient magie, met name de shimmer is fantastisch. Ik zou m iedereen aanraden die iets in de richting van ambient wil maken op gitaar.
