Time-Warped Reverberator
Create vast soundscapes with just a few notes from your instrument. Apply mind-bending pitch and harmonic manipulation to your reverb tails, with synth-like filter sweeps. Enter a world of new sounds that blow away the boundaries of what is possible with reverb. With pioneers and adventurous sonic explorers in mind we created a reverb pedal that can go where none have gone before.

---|---|---|---|
Speed adjusts the rate of modulation from 0.06Hz (16 second sweep) to 12Hz (0.08 second sweep) Target selects the process to which modulation is applied. verb: modulates the delay lines within the regenerating reverb core. pitch: modulates the size (process rate) of the reverb core. filter: modulates the HIGH CUT tone control position. |
DEPTH adjusts the amount of modulation. Modulation is off at the fully minimum position. For env mode: modulation is off at noon. Sensitivity increases as the knob is rotated away from center. Rotate left for negative envelope response or right for positive. SHAPE selects the modulating waveform. triangle: rises and falls evenly. square: jumps between two fixed values. ramp: rises gradually and falls abruptly saw: falls gradually and rises abruptly random: jumps between random values. env: modulation value responds to playing dynamics (sensitivity set by DEPTH), and returns at a rate set by SPEED. |
LENGTH adjusts the reverb decay time from less than one second to nearly infinite sustain. At long decay settings, decay time may be impacted by the TONE settings. TEXTURE selects one of three different reverb typed. spares: granular-sounding reverb that can create interesting effects with staccato inputs, or produce a clean reverb with sustained inputs. dense: plate-like reverb with a fast response and dense reflections that can venture into ambient territory at high decay times. diffuse: slow-building, atmospheric wash that excels at ambient, swell, and even reverse-like textures. |
SIZE/PITCH increases the size of the reverb core to create a larger "space" for reflections as the knob is turned clockwise which also allows for pitch variations during adjustment. QUANTIZE selects the response and range of the SIZE/PITCH knob. smooth: SIZE/PITCH varies smoothly and continuously over a 2.5 octave pitch range. half step: The SIZE/PITCH is quantized into half-step intervals over a two octave range. scale: The SIZE/PITCH is quantized into selectable scales over a two octave range. |

LOW CUT removes low end content both at the output and in the regenerating core portion of the reverb as the knob is turned clockwise. FILTER selects the response of the HIGH CUT knob. regen: removes high frequencies from the regenerating core, creating a reverb that gets farker as it decays. low pass: applies a synth-style peaking low-pass filter to the reverb output to selectively shape the frequency content. |
HIGH CUT removes high frequency content from the reverb with characteristics determined by the FILTER switch selection. |
INTERVAL selects the pitch interval of the shimmer effect from a number of musically useful and interesting intervals. |
SHIMMER (button) selects the type of shimmer effect. input: shimmer effect is applied to the input of the reverb core and does not regenerate. regen: shimmer effect is applied within the reverb core and the effect is regenerative. GLIMMER creates a harmonically enhanced spectrum from the reverb output. high: higher frequency harmonics are highlighted creating as washy dreamy top end. low: lower frequency harmonics are highlighted that add mysterious and synth-like textures. LED off: Glimmer is disabled. DRIVE adds saturated overdriven harmonics to the reverb. pre: applies drive to the signal before the reverb tank. post: applies drive after the reverb cored, allowing the reverb tail to dynamically go into and out of saturation as the reverb decays. |
Challenge The Conventions.
NightSky evolved from a desire to push the envelope and challenge the conventions of traditional reverb while also paying homage to the experimental reverberant sounds from decades past.
It started with the variable rate core. Once that was nailed down, we knew we had to complement it with a set of sound-shaping features that could take full advantage of the unique possibilities and expand them exponentially. This led us to a full-featured modulation section, a 4-pole resonant filter, and a unique Voice section to control the reverb’s harmonic structure.
Three Reverb Textures: Sparse, Dense, and Diffuse.
NightSky gives you three distinct Reverb textures to choose from: Sparse, Dense, and Diffuse. The Sparse reverb creates reflections that are far enough apart from each other to be audibly distinct. Legato notes create a lush but pleasingly clean sound field, while staccato notes reveal individual echoes in a way that is well suited for sound design and special effects. The Dense reverb texture is an immediate-response reverb with a smooth sound field, featuring sonic characteristics similar to a plate. The Diffuse reverb creates a slow-building, atmospheric wash that excels at ambient, swell, and even reverse-like textures. The Diffuse reverb deconstructs and spreads transients over time to achieve its bloom-like effect.
Travel at Warp Speed.
NightSky jettisons tradition and opens up a new universe of possibilities by using a variable rate process to expand and contract the reverb core size. This changes the reflection density and response of the reverb while retaining the integrity of the audio within the reverb. The result is a reverberated signal that can be transposed, sequenced and pitch modulated for interplanetary approval.
Sonically Beautiful Reverb Repitching.
Inspired by the classic shimmer effects pioneered in the ’80s using digital reverbs and pitch shifters, NightSky’s Shimmer voice is carefully created from the reverberated signal itself to generate maximum radiance and beauty. Call forth deep, low ambient string sections with the octave down setting, or spacey ethereal textures with octave up. In between the octaves are several musically interesting intervals available for shifting the harmonic structure of the reverb. The Shimmer processing can be applied at the reverb input only, or can regenerate within the reverb core for ever-ascending or descending pitches as the reverb decays.

Custom Tailored Harmonic Spectrum.
Glimmer creates an enhanced harmonic spectrum using an optimally tuned dynamic resonant network. Its high setting accentuates higher frequency harmonics, creating a washy, dreamy, ambient top end. With Glimmer switched to its low setting, lower frequency harmonics are enhanced to alter the perceived harmonic structure and create mysterious synth-like textures.
Explosions in the NightSky.
NightSky’s Drive feature generates saturated overdriven harmonics that can either react to the signal going into the reverb core, or dynamically distort the reverb’s output in a very interactive way. When Drive is applied at the input to the reverb, digging in generates more distorted harmonics, so you can dynamically “play” the distortion going into the reverb core. Placed on the reverb output, Drive acts as a soft-clipped limiter, reacting dynamically with the complexities of the decay of the reverb. This can produce interesting distorted stereo panning effects, as reflections on either side of the stereo image surpass or recede below the amplitude necessary to generate noticeable distortion. The harmonic complexity created by the Drive block is perfectly suited for sonic sculpting via NightSky’s low pass filter.
Synth-like Low Pass Filter and More.
NightSky features a beautifully tuned 4-pole 24dB/octave low pass filter with a user-selectable resonance amount for gorgeous synth-like filter sweeps of the reverb output. The low pass filter is especially effective at shaping the distortion products from the Drive section. When used with NightSky’s Modulation section this filter reveals the inspiring power of subtractive reverberant synthesis. The low pass filter can also be swapped for a high cut filter that removes high frequencies from the regenerating reverb core to create a reverb that gets darker as it decays. Also in NightSky’s TONE section is a low cut filter that removes low end content both at the output and in the reverb core.
Powerful Modulation Capabilities.
Add motion to your sounds with NightSky’s Modulation section. Create slowly evolving ethereal textures, or push the limits of wildly experimental sound design. Triangle, square, ramp, saw, random, and envelope waveforms can be used to modulate your choice of targets: Modulate the delay lines within the regenerating reverb core, or modulate the size/pitch (process rate) of the reverb core. Or, for very synth-like sounds, modulate the resonant low pass filter.

Devo dire che è davvero tanta roba, ma se state cercando un riverbero standard optate per il big Sky perché questo non fa per voi, è più un riverbero da sperimentazione sonora.
Qualité du son : génial (du Strymon quoi) ! aucune acidité numérique, on dirait de l'analogique...
Assurément une des meilleures du marché.
