Totally. :drool:

Chorale sounds weird (the "angry mob" setting :lol:) but could be awesome before fuzz?

My thoughts exactly. RRR and Spring Chicken have me covered on verb, may even sell my Context. However, based on my TL and Möbius experience thus far, the BigSky should slay.

Möbius could def use more knobs. This is true.

if they let it do the two ins/two outs trick that Mobius has for running it in two different places in the chain, it sure looks like an amazing pedal

I am definitely going to get one of these if I can save up enough money.

Loved the spring, magneto, and shimmer. Could probably use the nonlinear for some cool stuff too. It also has a freeze/infinite function!

But if there's one thing that sold me on it, it was the spring verb. Man do I love spring reverb.

to expand - OOOOOG.

i don't have tons of reverb. so this really speaks to me. it'd replace the Nimbus i do adore so it wouldn't take up that much more space on my board.

um. want.

when they hit? by which i mean, when can i add 2-4 weeks to start looking for TGP flipped ones or not have to wait a month after ordering?

TGP flipped ones at twice the price. You'll never have laser eye balls if you keep this up.

lol. MUST. SHOOT. LASERS. ugh.

so lagging on that.

here's the thing though. i'm basically using my M9 as a tuner and a mute and a pitch shifter. and good GAWD that thing is huge. i could replace the M9 and Nimbus with a Strymy Stupid Name Reverb Box and an H9 and be about the same size or smaller.

urg.

I'd just tweak this thing to death, add delay, shit would get redundant and I'd tweak some more. I prefer simpler reverb pedals (and settings) with less options so I'm not sucked into the black hole of knob turning. I use verb to expand my sound a bit, make it bigger. This is not the pedal for me. That said, I'm sure it'll sound super.

Also $479? How can this be priced higher than a TL or Möbius? Does not compute. I guess they're following Eventide's lead when it comes to pricing, then shaving a few bucks off. I'd take this over a Space any day tho if I wanted a multiverb on my board.

Maybe they upgraded the processor??...they actually list some specs this time rather than just saying "super high performance SHARC"
