Lush, Majestic Reverbs. Insane DSP Power.

With our blueSky reverb, we have applied the same philosophy as our dBucket algorithm pedals. We´ve taken a super powerful SHARC DSP and dedicated it to doing one thing only – the best reverb ever. Since the entire DSP is dedicated only to doing powerful reverbs, and believe us, we squeeze every last drop of juice, the reverbs are lush and beautiful. Whether you´re a classic spring reverb fan or more of a studio rack aficionado, you´ll find your mojo here. The blueSky would be equally at home on top of a mixer or in front of a tube amp. We´ve even thrown in a plate, unusual in a pedal form factor but extremely useful, versatile and unique sounding. A full pre-delay and damping section provide deep reverb tone shaping. Add to that mod and shimmer modes and you´ll have unending fun.

SOUND CLIPS

A bright spring with no pre-delay and a moderately heavy mix recreates a miked up amps spring tank for some classic surf.

A variety of settings using the plate algorithm showcase the versatility, including a bright ambience (at 0:07), a large synthesized bright room (0:17), a larger bright metallic reverb (0:27), a couple of beautifully damped dark plates (0:45), a huge rubber barrel that has maximum low and minimum high (1:01), and finally a cymbal-like plate with minimum low and maximum high (1:22)

The "mod" option for the plate algorithm creates a beautifully chorused effect when mixed in with the dry signal. This clip uses some pre-delay to prevent the dry signal from being overwhelmed, and to allow the sound to breathe

The plates shimmer effect generates octaves within the tank to create an ever-expanding and regenerating bloom of pure harmonics that adds an ethereal synth-pad type of effect

The quality and range of the Room algorithm is highlighted with an array of sounds, including a lively walk-in closet (0:04), a nicely balanced room (0:15), a warm, small auditorium (0:28), a large hall with a long, balanced decay (0:41), an empty arena with lots of bass-traps but no high damping (0:57), and that same arena with plenty of high-damping but no bass traps (1:12)
