About this listing
The Encounter is more than just a combination delay and reverb effects pedal--it is a fully loaded vessel of atmospheric discovery, thoughtfully designed to explore swirling celestial tones and deeply immersive soundscapes. The pedal features a control surface similar to Source Audio's now-legendary Collider Delay+Reverb, but while the Collider focused on classic sounds, the Encounter offers a wide-ranging collection of otherworldly and never-before-heard delay and reverb effects.All six delay and six reverb engines can be used individually or in pairs (that includes dual delay or dual reverb combinations) with full MIDI functionality and stereo ins & outs. Routing options include series, parallel, or split stereo. Each footswitch engages or disengages its own effect, essentially providing the functionality of two separate pedals in one unit. It is also compatible with Source Audio's free Neuro 3 software for iOS, Android, macOS, and Windows. Prior to owning the Encounter, anyone can experience its sounds with the Neuro 3 Editor and its SoundCheck feature, which lets users preview and create pedal presets using only a phone or computer.The Encounter Ambient Delay+Reverb's collection of effect engines features a powerful mix of novel sounds and modernized favorites from Source Audio's award-winning Ventris Dual Reverb and Nemesis Delay. Exclusive engines such as the Hypersphere reverb (which imagines the reverberations heard from an ever-expanding room free of walls, ceiling, or floor), Kaleidoscope delay (a cascading, harp-like effect), and Shimmers (a dual-pitched shimmer effect) are among the most beautiful and imaginative in Source Audio's history. Returning effects such as Reverse, Lo-Fi, and Swell reverbs, along with the Helix, Drum Echo, and Resonant delays, have been reimagined and enhanced with expanded parameter controls, unlocking limitless sonic possibilities and creative potential.Features:6 Reverb & 6 Delay effectsCombine any 2 effects for a unique, customizable soundDual Signal ProcessingSimple & intuitive controlsRun Dual Delay or Dual Reverb Effects simultaneouslyCompatible with Free Neuro 3 EditorStereo Input and Output JacksDedicated Footswitches for both effectsUniversal bypass for buffered or true bypassAnalog Dry Through with 100% wet optionComplete MIDI Functionality6 Different Reverb EffectsHypersphere, Shimmers, TremVerb, Reverse, LoFi, Swell6 Different Delay EffectsNoise Tape, Resonant, Drum Echo, EchoVerb, Kaleidoscope, HelixCombine Any Two Reverb and Delay EffectsRun any of Encounter's delay and reverb effects individually or in pairs with series, parallel, or split stereo routing.Dual Signal ProcessingThe pedal includes two identical 56-bit signal processors for massive processing power, essentially housing both a high-powered delay pedal and reverb pedal in a single box.Simple User InterfaceWhen the knobs toggle switch is on DELAY, all knobs control the delay, including the effect selection wheel.
