Amverb is stereo reverb pedal, and an emulation of a classic 1980s reverb unit. The original was marketed as a cheaper alternative to the much more expensive offerings from companies like Lexicon and EMS, who just a few years earlier, introduced some of the first digital reverb units to the market.
The original unit ran on a custom, 12-bit, 24Khz signal processor, which was entirely built from discrete logic components. Our pedal recreates the full functionality of the original, but… we did decide to use a microcontroller and a software program to implement it, instead of big circuit board.
The pedal has 64 different programs, which you can scroll through in banks of 8, and then select which program you want using the Program knob. We've also included an additional low and high shelf EQ, for a bit more sound shaping variety.
The programs go from very short, small room echoes, at just 200 milliseconds long, and gradually extend in length and size up to 20 seconds, with a few variations at each length, offering different room sizes and reflection brightness.
Daedalus is a line of digital effects pedals, with the unique feature of being able to swap out the faceplates on the pedals, to re-program the device to any other effect in the series. It also features full MIDI control, Expression pedal control and it can be powered via USB (or a standard 9V DC adapter)
