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. Reverberant Synthesis Machine. NightSky is a reverberant synthesis workstation, and a powerful, hands-on experimental sound design platform. NightSky gives you real-time continuous control of reverb pitch/processing rate/core size, harmonics, and even a synth-like resonant filter with multiple modulation waveshapes, plus a step sequencer with variable glide. You haven’t heard a pedal like this before. The Rules of Space and Time Have Been Rewritten. New Sonic Territory. NightSky is a reverb pedal you will want to get your hands on. Deep and powerful sound manipulation with instant response knob-tweaking and no menu diving set a new standard in experimental reverb sound design. Warp Core Reverb. NightSky achieves some of its most mind bending sounds by using a Variable Process Rate for its reverb core, allowing you to simultaneously change the size of the reverb as well as the pitch. This pitch change can be completely smooth, or quantized to a variety of musical scales. And it can be sequenced. Harmonic Sculpture Machine. Use Shimmer to shift the harmonic structure by selectable musical intervals. Add Glimmer to dynamically enhance the harmonic spectrum. Turn up Drive to generate saturated overdriven harmonics. Then sculpt the resulting signal with NightSky’s synth-like variable-resonance low pass filter. 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. Specs Sound Design Three selectable reverb types offer a wide variety of ambient textures MOD section with various waveforms to modulate the reverb or tone filters TONE section to sculpt the high and low EQ of the reverb VOICE section to enhance the aural spectrum of the reverb Adjustable SHIMMER for adding pitch shifting of up to +/- 1 octave to the reverb GLIMMER dynamically enhances high or low frequency harmonics for synth-like textures Pre or Post DRIVE to add saturated overdriven harmonics to the reverb Adjustable reverb core size to increase or decrease the space for reflections Independent REVERB and DRY level controls Step sequencer for programming rhythmic pitch variations of the reverb Access to 16 presets from the front panel and 300 presets via MIDI Ins, Outs, and Switches High impedance ultra low-noise discrete Class A JFET preamp stereo inputs Low impedance stereo outputs Input Level switch allows for both instrument and line level signals On, Favorite, and Infinite footswitches Expression pedal input allows the connection of an expression pedal, MultiSwitch Plus, or 1/4” to MIDI cable Full featured MIDI in/out supporting MIDI CCs, program changes, MIDI clock sync and more USB jack for controlling via MIDI from a computer or for performing firmware updates Audio Quality Analog dry path for a zero latency dry signal that is never converted to digital Premium JFET analog front end Ultra low noise, high performance 24-bit 96kHz A/D and D/A converters provide uncompromising audio quality Super high performance SHARC DSP 32-bit floating point processing 20Hz to 20kHz frequency response Audio Input Impedance: 1M Ohm Audio Output Impedance: 100 Ohm More True Bypass (electromechanical relay switching) or selectable transparent Analog Buffered Bypass Strong and lightweight anodized dark blue aluminum chassis 9V DC power supply included Power requirements: maximum 9 volts DC center-negative, with a minimum of 300mA of current Dimensions: 4.5″ deep x 7″ wide x 1.75″ tall 114.3 mm deep x 177.3 mm wide x 44.5 mm tall Designed and built in the USA
