So glad you're video demos strymon pedals with synths, for us keyboardists to view & lust after…… please continue to use keyboards in future videos of your effects pedals thank you
This is fantastic. I always thought that these kinds of sounds could only be achieved with computer based software. Amazing realtime reverb filtration!
Without a doubt the most musical sounding reverb stomp box I've ever heard. The overtones and harmonics that it creates are just phenomenal and it has a VERY distinct and unique sound.
STRYMON PLEASEEEEEE!!!! Where is your 19" rack version? I would love to have your world class reverb in my studio but pedals are such a mess on a producer desk...
MrHollabk Thanks for sharing this feedback. We really appreciate it. We unfortunately don't share what is or isn't in the works, but we listen to all feedback. Thanks :D
Agree for the rack version and messing with pedals when you already have tons of gear. I will buy a rack unit if you comes with one anytime. Still a wonderful product already no doubt. Viva Strymon! Cheers!
Hahah! That's awesome! Thanks so much -- what a compliment. I've been using it on tons of stuff and I don't really know what I'm doing with it yet, so I can't imagine you'll be very impressed with what you see. But I'm having great fun. It's an amazing device. I've been using it to add a bit of ambience to samples that I sample into the Octatrack, and it works great for that also.
Love this style of demo! Showing the dry sound first, the synth that's making it, and then the processed sound is my favorite way to demo effects. Thank you!
This is my dream reverb pedal.. I'm getting this one day, as well a modular synth. Both together is my dream, I'd sell all my equipment just for those two.
Man this thing is glorious! I listened to a bunch of youtube demos for the first time two days ago. It is arriving via fedex tomorrow. ;-) Got me hook, line and sinker.
as soon as I heard this pedal it became number one on my list of things to get. it took waiting like 5 months, and selling a preamp, but im so happy that the strymon bigsky is finally in the mail on the way to my house :)
This is simplyinsane. What this wonderful machine can do with simple Tones. If I hadn`t considered buying this. I would after hearing this demo. It`s nice, that this demo is with synths.
after the first couple of demo patches I found myself really looking forward to the button being pressed each time just to see what more fantastic sounds the little box was going to make. Astoundingly impressive piece of kit guys and a great addition for El Capistan owners!
There are 4 Strymon pedals on my studio desk (3 large, 1 small). I'd be so happy with 1HE 19" units of individual pedals like Timeline or Big Sky or 2HE 19" units with Big Sky + Blue Sky or Timeline + El Capistan/DIG.
Excellent demonstration with brilliant sound engineering. Well spoken ! Thanks so much for show, Thanks for up loading and sharing. I am inspired by you and Strymon-BigSky pedal device !
I really like your products, Strymon ! !! Very cool design with friendly features and very easy to work with ! and thats a PLUS there ! !! Of course sound and quality are excellent ! You've got a perfect width, length, depth, and awesome finish on your devices ! I like the way it looks, nicely balanced (Wide enough for being as a foot pedal), Well done !
Having used Korg SDD3000 rack and Echoplex EP2 for guitar in the past I was reluctant to try digital pedal for my Juno. This demo is pretty awesome though man !
I have a really good producer using the Abby roads plug-in by waves and he refuses to use outboard gear. I feel however this reverb is beyond superior. Opinions? I need a good argument.
Got my Big Sky on the way! Can't wait to hook it up to my Prophets 6 & 12, and to my Sub 37 and Jupiter 80 and anything else I can think of. I'm salivating till Fedex comes thru!!
Is it possible through the midi connection of this effects processor to select a programmed effect next to the timbre on the Yamaha DX7 or other old synthesizer that is not compatible with general midi standard?
Hi ADRIANKEYMUSIC! I'm not really clear on your question, however, the BigSky presets can be recalled with MIDI Program Change messages and the parameters of the pedal can be controlled with MIDI Control Change messages. A Synth would need to be able to send these types of messages to control the pedals presets and parameters.
The CHORALE algorithm is one of the reverb TYPES on BigSky. It can be used with whatever you connect to BigSky. As long as that SQ1 has line level outputs, it can be ran through BigSky just fine :)
Why not do what eventide have done and release as an app on iOS for iPad. I have black hole on iPhone and iPad and use it lots. But this is even better, and I know for sure that all the other iOS musicians would also love this released as an app.
You could plug this thing into a can of beans and it would still sound great.
As demonstrated when running the Yamaha Portasound through it xD
lol!
Tried it. Now have wall to wall beans.
Thanks for that!
I'm crying. Best comment I've seen in a fat minute.
That must be the best quote I have heard in a long time... lol
So glad you're video demos strymon pedals with synths,
for us keyboardists to view & lust after……
please continue to use keyboards in future videos of your effects pedals
thank you
Thanks so much :D We will!
Amazingly beautiful reverb. Hands down, the best reverb pedal.
Thanks so much :)
4:24 wow I didn't see that coming ...
If any moment shows how powerful the BigSky is....that is the moment.
This is fantastic. I always thought that these kinds of sounds could only be achieved with computer based software. Amazing realtime reverb filtration!
2:57 gives me goosebumps and tears!
0:50 that bigsky on the wurlitzer is pure gold!
Says to meself..."but do I really NEED it?"....gets to 4:26 and it's "SWEET JESUS I NEEEEED IT!!"
LFOVCF you could record anything half decent, set the mix to 100% and play it through that and get insane soundscapes like no other
@00:00 Wulitzer 200a
@01:04 Roland Juno 6
@04:11 Yamaha DX21
@07:40 Yamaha PSS-480
@08:47 Casio MT-520
@09:37 Ableton
Without a doubt the most musical sounding reverb stomp box I've ever heard. The overtones and harmonics that it creates are just phenomenal and it has a VERY distinct and unique sound.
Best Big Sky synth demo I've seen. Appreciate the quality and various sound sources. I really want one after seeing this.
STRYMON PLEASEEEEEE!!!! Where is your 19" rack version? I would love to have your world class reverb in my studio but pedals are such a mess on a producer desk...
MrHollabk Thanks for sharing this feedback. We really appreciate it. We unfortunately don't share what is or isn't in the works, but we listen to all feedback. Thanks :D
strymon 19'' rack would be truly amazing!!
What about the Eurorack version?! Everybody wants/needs this!
Hi Caleb, Thanks for the additional feedback :)
Agree for the rack version and messing with pedals when you already have tons of gear. I will buy a rack unit if you comes with one anytime. Still a wonderful product already no doubt. Viva Strymon! Cheers!
a simple good sounding instrument + a very good fx + some decent playing skills - that's it to create wonderful music.
Strymon is heads and shoulders above all effects ....these guys are SOUND artists Bravo
This reverb is so great. just got it and it's magical with synths.
Thank you so much. I just went over to your UA-cam and see you have a few videos with it. Can't wait to watch them today. :D
Hahah! That's awesome! Thanks so much -- what a compliment. I've been using it on tons of stuff and I don't really know what I'm doing with it yet, so I can't imagine you'll be very impressed with what you see. But I'm having great fun. It's an amazing device. I've been using it to add a bit of ambience to samples that I sample into the Octatrack, and it works great for that also.
Totally enjoyed the clips, but can't wait to hear more as you dive in deeper with your BigSky :D
Love this style of demo! Showing the dry sound first, the synth that's making it, and then the processed sound is my favorite way to demo effects. Thank you!
This is my dream reverb pedal.. I'm getting this one day, as well a modular synth. Both together is my dream, I'd sell all my equipment just for those two.
0:08 This reverb sound like Silent Hill OST. I love It! ❤️
The sound of the DX21 and Strymon Big Sky is heaven!
I'm speechless!!! This thing is a pure magic!
A decade later this still is the only digital device sounding more analogue than analogue ever did. What a beauty...they should have sent poets.
Why is "Elijah Wood Teaches You How To Build A Gatorade Bong" related to this?
don´t have any fucking idea
Because Elijah Wood uses a microphone hooked to Strymon's Bigsky Reverb when he is practicing his scary Hobbit screams.
Man this thing is glorious! I listened to a bunch of youtube demos for the first time two days ago. It is arriving via fedex tomorrow. ;-) Got me hook, line and sinker.
Hiro Protagonist Thank you Hiro :) Excited to hear you have a BigSky on the way. If you post any videos, please let us know so we can check them out.!
hook, line and 'shimmer'
Oh my God!! it's a brilliant reverb!! LOVE it!
Thank you!!
3:00 all this need is some drums & bass and you got a sick track ! Great demo video!
1:09 makes me feel so good
This is pure gold. When I graduate and get a job I'm buying this. Sad video ended...
I've just tripled the sounds of my keyboard with this great little box
Good job Strymon for a synthesizer demo. More stompbox manufacturers need to do these sorts of videos.
the "sunrise" part ... sublime. you just helped sell yet another one of these things, to me!
Appreciate that. Thanks!
The 'Sirens' preset... amazing! 5:13
as soon as I heard this pedal it became number one on my list of things to get. it took waiting like 5 months, and selling a preamp, but im so happy that the strymon bigsky is finally in the mail on the way to my house :)
fawnandrabbit Can't wait to hear when you get your BigSky. Please tag us when you do :D
Thank you for the great demo. This is the first video than made me think about the Big Sky. I was sold on the Eventide Space, now not so sure.
Thanks Jenny, if you have any questions about BigSky, let us know anytime at support@strymon.net
Simply stunning ! I’m going to be locked away in my studio for a VERY long time !
Play anything into the shimmer and set the mix to 100 for instant ambient music
This is simplyinsane. What this wonderful machine can do with simple Tones. If I hadn`t considered buying this. I would after hearing this demo. It`s nice, that this demo is with synths.
Thanks so much :) Really appreciate hearing that!
When we first used it, it gave us goosebumps. The big sky is worth every penny!
AlobarMusic Thank you :D
This has shown me so much u can do when plugging fx pedals in synths
after the first couple of demo patches I found myself really looking forward to the button being pressed each time just to see what more fantastic sounds the little box was going to make. Astoundingly impressive piece of kit guys and a great addition for El Capistan owners!
There are 4 Strymon pedals on my studio desk (3 large, 1 small). I'd be so happy with 1HE 19" units of individual pedals like Timeline or Big Sky or 2HE 19" units with Big Sky + Blue Sky or Timeline + El Capistan/DIG.
Sonic Synergist Appreciate the feedback :D Thanks so much!
+strymon I would buy that in a heartbeat
Same here!
Only synth i’ve ever owned that came close was a Yamaha CS-80. Great video and demo. Tnx
I think a HUGE part of Vangelis’ sound was the way he played the synths in the presence of high end Lexicon reverbs
"BigSky" is a good name, but "WetDream" would be more accurate.
Hahahhhaa
FedEx just delivered Big Sky
ARP Odyssey mono in & stereo out to Alesis line mixer
What profound effects and lush
ARP came alive using presets
Awesome! Love hearing that. Please share if you post a video :)
well, I'm convinced that this is the reverb I need for my setup
This will be my first Strymon piece. Killer work guys.
Really nice demo mate, good job. Sounds awesome and the keys played too. :)
Amazing, just ordered one to go with my live looping setup, can't wait to get started
My favorite reverb box!
So beautiful, thank you. I adore this cosmoromantic reverb effect👍
this thing could make a *fart* sound like a symphony.
watch?v=Tk-5RVMerfI
I had the Juno 60 which has chorus & reverb built in but this baby tops it by a galactic mile
just ordered one!! im so happy!!!
supper jelly :(
im begging so much for this pedal, i will damn sure buy it as soon as i can
Excellent demonstration with brilliant sound engineering. Well spoken !
Thanks so much for show, Thanks for up loading and sharing. I am inspired by you and Strymon-BigSky pedal device !
Thank you for the kind comment! Appreciate it so much :D
I really like your products, Strymon ! !!
Very cool design with friendly features and very easy to work with ! and thats a PLUS there ! !!
Of course sound and quality are excellent ! You've got a perfect width, length, depth, and awesome finish on your devices ! I like the way it looks, nicely balanced (Wide enough for being as a foot pedal), Well done !
Such wonderful feedback to hear. Thank you again!!
My pleasure ! Please keep up the good work !
nice tones for the people!
juno-6 sounded great
Incredible Bigsky !
Sounds so good. Gonna try plugging in my keyboard via midi this afternoon...
Amazing reverb.
Best pedals out there, I want em all!
Snagging one this month. You guys have an amazing product line.
+BoomBoom Look forward hearing when you have your BigSky. Thanks :D
Here's a track I recorded using the Roland JX3P and a Big Sky. Needless to say it's a pretty incredible combo. soundcloud.com/capferrat/eq2
I love this sound 😃😃😃😃
The sound is epic!
goddamn now I need to buy a bluesky, wurlitzer and a Juno-6!
My first strymon piece as well i think. Consider eurorack sometime guys!
amazing.
This goes way beyond 'a pedal'. this is an obilatory tool for sounddessign!
Amazing sounds 😯
Having used Korg SDD3000 rack and Echoplex EP2 for guitar in the past I was reluctant to try digital pedal for my Juno. This demo is pretty awesome though man !
love it... strymon is going to make me go bankrupt
So smooth !
Hello Road!!!!!
I've got to get one of these!
After watching this I just ordered one !!! :D
btw your subbed and thumbed up mate
Marvelous !
Personally hoping they'll make another eurorack module but based on this beauty.
Best pedal I’ve ever had the privilege of owning. I need at least 3 more lol
Beautiful! I would love to hear this thing in person!
+Draven Flores Thanks :) You can find select dealers at our dealer finder here > strymon.net/dealers Look forward to hearing when you get to play one.
Man that 'Stop Signs' bit is lush, is it from something? :P
I have a really good producer using the Abby roads plug-in by waves and he refuses to use outboard gear. I feel however this reverb is beyond superior. Opinions? I need a good argument.
Got my Big Sky on the way! Can't wait to hook it up to my Prophets 6 & 12, and to my Sub 37 and Jupiter 80 and anything else I can think of. I'm salivating till Fedex comes thru!!
+Colin Caetano Looking forward to hearing when your BigSky arrives. Please let us know if you post a video :D Thanks!
this is just too good ...
My favorits are when you create SOUNDS using toy synts... I got to get one!
My sir the sky !!
awesome!
Very nice
You should make a synth demo of the timeline, not many around-
Yes, we definitely want to make more synth demos! :)
Is it possible through the midi connection of this effects processor to select a programmed effect next to the timbre on the Yamaha DX7 or other old synthesizer that is not compatible with general midi standard?
Hi ADRIANKEYMUSIC! I'm not really clear on your question, however, the BigSky presets can be recalled with MIDI Program Change messages and the parameters of the pedal can be controlled with MIDI Control Change messages. A Synth would need to be able to send these types of messages to control the pedals presets and parameters.
Great demo! Thx
Impressive!
Currently looking for a job so that I can get this on my first paycheck
i wish you the best of luck
This thing's crazy. First thing I'm gonna do is hook it up to my microwave, calculator and doorbell when it's arrived!
This is my next purchase, just pushed it's way to position one..
Please share with us when you get your BigSky :D
Excellent!! I want!
The sound is incredible, so spacious !
very useful tutorial ! thankyou!
does this reverb have chorale and or voice on all synths i have ensoniq sq1 plus
The CHORALE algorithm is one of the reverb TYPES on BigSky. It can be used with whatever you connect to BigSky. As long as that SQ1 has line level outputs, it can be ran through BigSky just fine :)
This demo made me REALLY want a Juno...
Why not do what eventide have done and release as an app on iOS for iPad. I have black hole on iPhone and iPad and use it lots. But this is even better, and I know for sure that all the other iOS musicians would also love this released as an app.
Is the Bloom setting inspired by the Alesis MIDIVerb preset 40?
