- Chavez Soliz demos the Slöer Stereo Ambient Reverb. Headphones on!
The Slöer Stereo Ambient Reverb builds on our popular Slö lineup but adds two additional reverb algorithms, stereo width control, two additional modulation wave shapes, and the ability to control the sample rate. Now you can create immersive, lush, modulated, sleepy, and ambient soundscapes with more width and depth than ever before.
Learn more about the Slöer here: www.walrusaudi...
Other pedals used: Warhorn Overdrive, ACS1 Amp + Cab Sim, Canvas Stereo D.I. / Line Isolator.

it puts smile when he played Men I Trust
I was about to say the same, it was beautiful
Which song was it
@@LouisManofMusic Isnt it tell me how
The Lone Survivor theme by Explosions in the sky at the beginning is such a great demo for this release
That Explosion at the end 🙌🏽
had to
@@walrusaudioeffects yeah that sold me the first Slö
The "Light" present is so tastefully useful...a shimmer effect that isn't predictably cheesy and bright/digitally harsh in the upper frequencies, a _dark upper octave humb_ , so to speak.
Glad you dig it!
🤍🤍
The "Masters of Ambient" nail it again. The Light mode almost made me cry. If this had midi control it would be on its way to my house already.
1:41 to 2:26, I can listen to this melody forever...
Just because I waited for the Meris MercuryX to release, doesnt make this irrelevant. The Slöer is my favorite reverb of this style control and options, finally something to REPLACE the Strymon Nightsky AND be $80 cheaper! Combined elements from Juliana which is my favorite analog chorus pedal, and technically 4.5 different algorithms, its incredible. Will recommend this to everyone looking into reverb pedals, you even have a traditional reverb option with Light, the X fader removing the shimmer. For the price I argue if you arent specifically after the Mercury7 to be THE best reverb for $350 or under. The artwork and design easily makes it the most visually attractive reverb pedal of 2023. Satisfies all my wants in a screen-less reverb. 10/10 for its style of interface that currently exists.
One of if not the best reverb pedal I’ve ever owned
- thanks walrus audio 🙏
Wow, thank you!
What a mystical sound....
I fell in love with this pedal.
Just a brilliant little device. Pairs perfectly with other drives and distortions.
Thanks!
Ready, Able by Grizzly Bear at the beginning was beautiful
Instant time travel 🎉
My dream would be a *ARP-87 + Fathom* combination. They go together so well.
That Gibson ES-335 at 5:10 is absolutely gorgeous! I want it! 😍
It really is!
Very nice! Feels like the one thing it could benefit from would be expression input.
Damn I’m trying to save money and here y’all go dropping this gem. Clicks, pedal in cart!! 😅
💛💛
Sounds so good. I love my Slö, this is going on a stereo ambient board build for sure
Thanks!
Dammit. I've been wanting a Slo Stereo since I bought the original three years ago. So yeah, I'll be getting one of these eventually.
🙌
Perfect guitar playing, perfect video, and perfect pedal. I have to get it soon.
Classic.. I just bought Slö one week ago :'D This one is even greater!!
Really enjoying this pedal
I can’t believe y’all are just casually dropping a new and somehow improved version of the greatest reverb pedal ever created.
I love it. I need it.
You're very kind. Thanks!
Sounds amazing!
Something like this on the ARP-87 would be awesome too! Even more if you include a reverse delay on it and a time knob.
Walrus Audio rules!
I already have a slö. Now I'll get this one as my FX reverb, and use the slö as a shoegaze-verb - with a dirt pedal after
sweet!
just added the black version to my board last week and it sounds amazing!
Thank you!!
Mako series combining Fable (microloopoing/granular), Lore (feedback loops/reverse/pitch), and Descent (octaves) please (with latching hold). It has seemed so obvious to expect I keep being shocked anytime you release something else!
Oh my god! I've been waiting for this for so long. Best reverb ever!
Great playing
Yesterday I was about to buy the v2 version... Now this❤
This sounds like an amazing unit, and it's definitely on my list to check out - but if the noise level on this promo video is indicative of the unit, it's not something I could live with, recording-wise.
Any chance of an updated version with expression input? If even only for stretch control. Would love to hook something like an MTET up to that.
Of course, fully integrated midi control would be even better, but probably also costly to implement.
Cheers!
SOM LINDO DEMAIS ESSE PEDAL!
DÁ PRA TIRAR SONS INCRÍVEIS.
Nice Other Lives reference!!
OOOOOOHHHHH YESSSSSS (Paul Bearer voice). Thank you for releasing a stereo Slo. 🙏🏻🌙🌙🖤
Fantastic!
Lovely sounding reverb.
ambient bliss!!
very excited for this but expression out would’ve been really nice to control stretch
Sounds awesome 🔥
He played the “House of Cards” riff by Radiohead perfectly at 7:00
I bought Lore a while ago, but I fell in love with Sloer 😢
🥰😍❤i love this pedal
Wonderful.
Wow this heaven ❤
Can it handle line-level input signals? Ie can I run my synths through this without having to turn them all the way down and get a strong output signal?
Can’t wait for Josh Scott to demo this in mono.
I just bought my Slö during the memorial day sale and was like they wont release a stereo version soon. Gonna have to invest in one. My wallet hurts but its gonna be worth it
ha, appreciate the purchase from the sale though!
@walrusaudioeffects anytime! Looking forward to buy more pedals. Looking forward to getting the melee and lore. Now the Slöer is going to be added. Prolly have a couple more in mind
@@metalfan4863 💛💛💛
Is there multiple presets like on the slotva? Or just one?
Three presets just like the Slotva!
Sickkkkk ❤
Sam!
@@eriksales8351 Hey buddy 👋🏻
Love this pedal. Bought one. Very happy. But please you guys please put a les bright light on the pedal. you literally have a 1000watt spotlight coming off of it
I can’t even see the pedal when I look at it. 😂
I have to put tape over it as I think everyone else does as well. Please 🙏
Love you guys tho.
Goddammit Walrus, I bought one..
thanks!!
WANT!!!! When they available in the Uk?
If not already then very soon. Contact your local dealer to see if they have it yet.
Hi there, thanks for the video. I'm just wondering if this pedal has analog dry through?
Yes it is
@@walrusaudioeffects Thanks! Can I read about it anywhere? In the manual perhaps?
Very good pedal, and I have had two walrus pedals that I love, but I think you need the option to save preset like the halo Delay from AT,
You can save up to three presets. Press and hold the two stomp switches for a couple seconds and it will save your settings!
@@walrusaudioeffects shut up and take my money!! 😂😂😂
well, listening to this pedal, i can say - ,The Earth Is Not a Cold Dead Place' !
I have R1 already and thought this will be my "final" ultimate reverb. I was wrong apparently and I am never financially recover from this. 😅
What gravitates you the most to get this in addition to the R1? I’ve got one too and been trying to justify it haha
@@ltmarshmellow5351 it is more experimental. The vibrato/detune and secondary options seems better on Slöer compared to R1. I previously owned Slö and give it away because the verb was only mono and I found it too low fidelity, but it looks like they fixed it...R1 is still great reverb so I will likely wait for some sale
Explosion in the Sky
I can't be the only one to look through demos like that late at night knowing damn well I won't get any physical pedals since they're way above my bedroom player needs. It sounds so nice tho.
I just placed an order for the blue one at Sweetwater. Do you guarantee I’ll sound just as good as this demo?
IT HAPPENED!!!!!
what fender model is being used in the video? I love the coral peach color and pickups on it
It's the CME exclusive Jazzmaster!
What song is he playing during the Light mode demo? Sounds amazing!
“This is the Kingdom” by Elevation Worship
What's the tune on 3:39?
Show Me How by Men I Trust !!
Just got this pedal today and love it. Is the Modulation controlled by the depth knob the same for every algorithm?
Thanks! And yes it is. Check the manual for secondary use of it for rate too!
Finally.
This thing got me torn apart. Slöer or cloudburst. Can't decide.
Hi
I have both and man both of them together is beautiful
It sounds cool BUT I think the Strymon Cloudburst nips it in the bud.
Is it true, ''Slow'' is flying off the shelves, ''Fast"'?. Sounds nice.
Is MIDI coming in V2?
Arp, Fable and Lore in stereo next please 😃🤤😃
So can I plug my 1 guitar input into the pedal, then have my 1 output cable going into my interface, and still get a stereo signal? or do I need two output cables both going into the interface? &&&&& then what's the function of the 2 input jacks?
2 input jacks would be for another stereo pedal before it, like a delay pedal or some choruses.
I’m not sure if you can achieve stereo with only one cable, but you’ll need to at least have two coming from the output
Why u didn’t make a mode with both upper and lower octaves together?????? Damnit!!! :(
Cheers beers brothers ❤
That’s on our Fathom. 🙂
Does the reverb stay on your signal when you play over the sustained note?
It does not. The chip can't handle that kind of processing. However, our Mako Series R1 can do that!
the best thing that will happended to the sound..
Why is "Sweden" not available as a shipping adress during checkout? i cannot order this :(
We have a distributor for all of EU. contact a local dealer or thomann.de
So many tones, im just waiting here for a delay and reverb in one with both options able to be turned on and off...
What's that LP special looking guitar?
A Veritas Orpheus!
how does it sound on a synth??
Goodwood audio is putting a midi on em
The Slö range of reverb pedals are great (I own a Slötvå). But with this "Big Sky" version of the pedal, Walrus expanded its capabilities yet failed to improve the overly-complex system of secondary functions. It appears that a lot of control panel space was spent on the sliders, when instead we *really* needed separate controls for wave shape and modulation speed. Also (as with the Slötvå) having no manual mode means that you never know where the knob positions actually are until you turn each one to show where that preset is set to.
Appreciate the feedback, but FYI, this pedal is a good bit smaller than the size of a Bigsky. Also, the faders take up the same amount of space than if we were to make them knobs. So even if they were made into knobs, there really isn't enough room for more controls and this pedal doesn't warrant being any larger. And since you're comparing it to the Big Sky, the Slöer functions the exact same way as far as how it boots up in the last preset you used. If you adjust a knob then the preset LED will change color to indicate that you've gone off preset. The same way that the Big Sky functions. It may seem complex at first but it's pretty simple once you play around with it to hold bypass then select the waveform!
@@walrusaudioeffects Thank you for the response, Walrus. I appreciate it. I still stand by my comments though. Personally, I believe that faders are generally not a great design choice for floor pedals. In any case, the secondary functions are a pain in the butt, especially when that can be eliminated on a larger pedal like the Slöer via a toggle and a couple control pots.
Stereo in and out, but the effect is mono?
No, it's stereo. You have the option to run mono out if you want though!
How many presets can you save?
Up to 3!
The différence between the two ?
One is black, one is blue.
@walrusaudioeffects is this a joke ?
@@lionelprat505 Nope! There are two color variants to choose from.
@@walrusaudioeffects OK ! Tanks !
Shaky cam close ups of the pedal made me a bit sea sick. Pedal sounds great!
This or bigsky?
Well I guess I will have to get one.
🥱😴😴😴💤💤💤
Looking forward to trying this out on my FOH poodlebeard set up. Nice work team walrus. 🪄🧙♂️
💛💛
Was thinking the same thing. Currently using the BigSky, but this might have to join the board, too.
I’ve been using a Slo and ARP87 combo for a while in addition to a few other things.
I'll have to check those out, too. My board is currently the BigSky, Timeline, and Hologram. I'll also use a trusty old DL4 for one of my groups, but it's starting to show its age.
The modulation speed is set much too fast [whiskey]
Not going to buy another pedal with presets again in my life.
I'm happy they kept FV-1 to preserve its character, though it may have just been cheaper, but why is it so limited??? Three presets is fine but why is latching hold available on only one algorithm? Why can't it be either for all of them? Why would I ever want to pan reverb? Why isn't this a Mako pedal with on-board octaves for each algorithm, latching/sustain for each algorithm, and a section dedicated to the "glitch like textures" from the R1??? Its the best glitch texture I've ever heard and its only available in that obscure format. You guys already have all this tech but you keep drip feeding it in these super expensive FV-1 releases. Did you guys lose your SHARC team or what? It's really getting annoying to invest in the Walrus ecosystem when you keep developing FV-1 formats for over $300 while having a stagnant, similarly priced SHARC format not growing. Not only that but I could absolutely see a future Mako pedal totally undercutting the market for these in the near future, as per Walrus history. Y'all have some great algorithms but these practices are getting really old.
Nice art piece. For the studio ok perhaps if your song is slow. Live on stage? Most concerts are delivered in mono. With drums bashing away? So who is this for? Ambient non musicians who need all the help they can get? Pedal manufacturers are smart they know there are rich people who will buy this. It’s overkill for most. How many people who buy this are gigging? Or are finishing original music. Lol.
no reverse, dont care
You should care, because if their first stereo pedal (this one) gets huge then they’ll be highly incentivized to release their other stuff as stereo… like reverses
