Catalinbread wants you to know:

Era-defining plate reverb with studio-style controls. 479.99% smaller than the leading plate reverb. It adds lush ambience, dimension, thickness, and depth in an unobtrusive way.

Listen to any recording from the 70's and you'll most likely hear the sound of a plate reverb, a giant mechanical contraption roughly the size of a king size bed. It was ubiquitous in the studio, and was the only reverb used on Pink Floyd's iconic Dark Side of the Moon album for example. What made plate reverb so cool It adds lush ambience, dimension, thickness, and depth in an unobtrusive way. When you listen to your favorite albums from the 70s you probably don't even realize how much plate reverb you are hearing. Go back and listen and hone in on the reverb sound and you'll probably be surprised how much reverb is actually there. In the studio the plate reverb signal was often processed on the way back to the console where the things like filtering and delays were applied.

This pedal is gray in color, as shown.

Product Overview
The Catalinbread Talisman is a unique effect that captures the sound of classic studio plate reverb in a pedal format. Based on the EMT 140 at TapeOp founder Larry Crane's Jackpot! Studios, the Talisman was designed to surpass the thin and unnatural sounding plate reverbs that Catalinbread felt were populating many other effects. With studio-style control designed to let you dial in everything from polished ambience to expansive, shimmering spaces, the Talisman is an excellent weapon in the sonic arsenal of any guitarist craving an alternative to the typical reverb pedal options.
