    Strum a chord, hit sustain and sit, contemplating Life, The Universe, and Everything. Great demo, Andy!

    Nice demo. I liked your approach. Thanks so much for focusing on the attributes of the pedal and NOT thrashing about or subjecting us to excessive noodling, etc….I subscribed because you know the product well. Did not waste our time, but gave us some personality while focusing on the pedal. Cheers!

    I'm usually not so much into Reverb but this is a cool pedal!
    I also like that they didn't cram it into their smaller pedal housing, with this double size you can actually step on the footswitches without hitting everything else aswell (i also use the V1 Monument Tremolo instead of the V2 for that reason)

    I need this pedal, this is my all time favourite guitar sound. I think an ambient sound, is the most beautiful guitar sound. ❤️🎸

    Love the layout. I have a Big Sky and I have such a love/hate with Strymon and the deep menus. This geezer is into dream pop and shoegaze and learning some new tricks. They needed to bring the sell price to $299.

      I was debating between this and the big sky, and I just bought this one, do you think it's redundant to own a big sky as well as this? Or should I fork it over for a strymon too? Or return this bad boy for the bigger bad boy the strymon?

    I'm only halfway thru, but adding MIDI controls over stretch and the other variables/knobs could be amazeballs.

    Already have a Slotva but also want this as well. I can see myself setting the Slotva set tasteful to play at the same time as the Sloer when you let the trails run. That way you done have the flat sound over the ambience. Just trigger the Slotva while you hold the trail.

    The Rain mode and the clock seem as if Walrus was taking some cues from the Chase Bliss Mood.

    This pedal is so awesome! If I didn't already have the Microcosm, I'd have to get this and the Fable (I got the Lore). They're just too good. Also, painter's tape is the perfect diffuser for those bright Walrus lights. It's especially helpful if you have five Walrus pedals on at the same time and you don't want to get blinded.

    • @TheGuitarGeek

    • @ramencurry6672
      @ramencurry6672 11 місяців тому

      I have the mono version of this pedal. In my opinion it’s one of the greatest reverb pedals ever made. The tone I feel is very natural. You notice the naturalness of the pedal more when playing through a synthesizer.

    • @Charlieboy2680
      @Charlieboy2680 11 місяців тому

      The microcosm is definitely going to be my next pedal. I have the sloer and it's a great pedal!

    Hey man thanks for this demo, I just ordered my Slöer! I have been waiting for a stereo version since the first one came out :) btw, what are those amp clamps you're using for the mics on your JC-40? I'd love to get a setup like that for mine!

    I have a big sky and a cloudburst ... it's got a different voice from strymon ... i wonder if i should part with the big sky as the cloudburst fits more snuggly in the pedal board

    When did blindingly bright LED’s become the standard? Maybe I should start selling indicator light shades for pedals. 🤔

    what are the input levels from this pedal like in the JC40 FX send/ return ?? something to consider as some pedals sound very thin and don't sound like they should in an FX loop...

    The only correct ambient reverb is a stereo one. And sliders on a pedal is always a win, so there’s that.

    I want to thank you Clown Boy, you just saved me $349. I have the original Slo and I don't care about stereo, am happy with the 3 secondary functions ,so the test for me were the new modes. Unlike what you said, "Dream" is part of the original set of 3 modes. The added ones are "Rain" and "Light". The former seemed totally unremarkable and for the latter I've gotten to the point of never wanting to hear shimmer 'verb again! Preset saving would be nice but not enough to fork out $349.
