- Three spectacular new reverb pedals released this year - what hugeness can we coax from them?
Life too short for long TH-cam videos? Please see the ‘Interesting bits and go-to sections’ information below.
Welcome all ye tone seekers! In this episode Daniel and I take a look at the three big reverb releases in 2020. Well, Daniel does - I kinda nod a lot and get swept along.
Reverb pedals have advanced perhaps more than any other genre in recent years with companies honing ever more powerful DSP into musician-friendly, easy-to-understand interfaces.
This trio fits that description perfectly, offering exciting paths towards true inspiration.
If you're minded to tell us about all the awesome reverb pedals we didn't put in this video, we know. We know we know we know we know. We know you love your pedals and we know you're disappointed when we don't put your pedals in our videos. We have to make a selection and today, this is it. Cheers!
Filmed before lockdown, just in case you were wondering.
Enjoy the episode!

"Sit there and feel smug. Don't write nasty comments." Some of the best advice ever.
Truth
I don't feel smug or over-knowledge but I do value the right to speak freely even if it annoys someone.
To quote the hard times, "$1000 Reverb Pedal Models Tone After Big, Empty Rooms Your Band Always Plays"
Oh that’s good.
Yeah, then you take that sound and put it on a record and suddenly people want to hear it.
Where are you playing? I’m not having that issue.
The Blackhole: Those pads! The size! The depth! I'm dying....
The NighSky: The excitement! The energy! I'm flying...
The CMX: The access! The quality of the sound (its like its really happening in the room)! The PRICE! I'm crying...
We all cry. Sounds amazing, price is insane
At $399 the CMX would be great fun. At $899 it will defintitely have a very limited audience. I can't see this flying off the shelves... good luck!!
For $899 you could probably find a used Lexicon that would give you similar functionality, albeit in a rack mount...
@@williamwagnon2809 , YES you can , i have a Lexicon MPX -1 , the machine !!!!!
@@tonyfaelens3626 Phenomenal unit. So sorry that I Sold mine. I had racks, ( roland, yamaha, alesis, dbx, aphex, lexicon ) Adat's, Large mackie board.
Dan and Mick PLS, PLS PLAY TOGETHER MORE OFTEN IN THE VIDEOS!
Yeah! I didn’t realise how rarely they play together until this video. More please!
Yes - that intro jam was awesome
Exactly, those jams are so creative and beautifull.
YES
Totally agree. I love seeing/hearing them jam. Gives the pedals and effects a real context too 🙂
Do I already have a reverb pedal: yes
Do I have money for these: no
Would I ever really use that much reverb: no
Do I want one: yes yea yes
This was my exact thought process for buying an Alexander jubilee silver overdrive recently. Zero regrets.
Yup. Sounds about right. But I visualize myself constantly using it and having so much fun.
Edit: I bought it and use it all the time. You can use a lot of reverb, which I really would never normally use, but you can play with it because the gift of this pedal besides the ridiculous hi-fi tones, is that doesn’t get in the way of your playing. Also, if you record anything besides guitar, this is the pedal you want for vocals, drums or synths. My favorite are the effect on vocals and drums. It completely transforms vocals but also drum sounds as well.
I love that Dan said "...these reverbs go one step beyond", and without missing a beat, Mick hums the first few notes of the Madness classic! These moments are so ephemeral, yet so fun.
I love it when you guys jam and really showcase pedals in proper contexts! I hope to see more of this!!🙌🏻
I credit you both to helping me get through this Covid thing! I don’t think you guys know how important you are to many of us. God bless ❤️🙏
And you Jose. Thank you for being with us. Our best!
I love it when you two play together it's so touching and atmospheric, you can really read each others playing it's brilliant!
FREAKING FINALLY you guys start a show playing TOGETHER!!! That was soo awesome!!!! Fikin' yeah! Ready for this episode!
i cannot stress enough the huge smile that swept my face when listening to yall in the intro. please continue to do more of this! love your synergy and energy. also i will say that les paul tone melted my face off on the first notes. simply brilliant !
You guys are incredible. Please keep making these demos forever. That ambient jam together was unreal
Thank you guys for today's session! The Chase Bliss is a game changer! Awesome noise!
Just wanted to say I love you guys and your show. It's hard to explain the "simple" stuff while getting some depth and making it entertaining and interesting. Thanks for doing it
Love you two and all you do for us! Thank you and God bless!
I'm blown away by that intro. This was FREAKING AWESOME!
Blimey, thank you!
Intro playing today was glorious
Thank you!
Mick’s rock ‘n’ roll room-sound was glorious! Could play that all day long.
Very good chemistry between the two of you. Always a good listen and a watch. You both give each other plenty of space to talk AND listen. More please!
Thank you Kick!
Love when you guys both play! 😃 sounds great and gives all the gear a bit of context too. 👌 keep up the good work.
Very inspiring episode, indeed. Thank you, Gents!
Fantastic show! One of my favourites so far. You guys must play together more often. The pedals were inspiring but not nearly as much as seeing you both create and get lost in soundscapes together. Loved it!!!
What fantastic playing in the intro! Brilliant reverbs with space for days! Top video as always fellas. Stereo into headphones is insane!
“It’s going straight to the poolroom” - most aspiring guitarists dreaming of the tomatoverb
I get so much inspiration from your videos that help me with creativity. I actually purchased a Roland Jazz chorus and a strymon nightsky because of your videos. Thanks so much. Great show you guys!
Its great to see how far you guys have come,and its been great fun watching the show's progress over the years. I hope to show never ends though, because then ill have to start learning how things work myself...!!
Thank you Graham. It’s fun evolving! Hopefully we won’t get bored and stop! :0)
I've never gone to Andertons faster. In four years of weekly obsessive watching and rewatching of your shows, learning as I go, I didn't even wait til half way. You were about a minute into the Nightsky, Dan, and programming that infinite loop with arpeggio. Honestly never pressed the big red danger button as quickly. Unchuffing believable. Massive respect to Strymon - I've been playing with programmable effects in DAW for years but it's never felt right. The way you both responded to the output coming from that thing was enough - that's what I've been missing. Awesome. Truly awesome. 🙌🏻 for TPS as always. Yas!
Legendary episode! So glad you went beyond your comfort zone for our enjoyment and edification :).
Wow! Loved this. Entrancing in a learning room.
You guys played beautifully. Those reverbs are maddeningly goooooddd!!! I want a cxm 1978 now........
So let's see what unnecessary gear I am gonna want to buy today
unnecessary??? these are all necessary pedals :)
@@MarcoZietzling Vital even...
These lads have cost me half a fortune already...
@@johancarlson2774 I Feel you Johan, same here... And the worst thing is I am not even mad...
Stay strong. All you need is fuzz.
It's nice to see you guys playing together. More of that, please
Loved seeing Mick play the gold top LP. The sound suits him and he always sounds good playing them. And on topic, I can't live without reverb. It and a boost are the only effects I can't live without.
"The sustain. You can go out for a bite and you'd still be hearing that one." --Nigel Tufnel
Amen.
Oh man....that CXM’78 jam at the end!!! You two composed one incredible film score with that one. Absolutely gorgeous!
And Dan. The best playing I have heard from you so far. Thanks for the great music guys.
Terrific show. That plate reverb tone you were getting out of the Chase Bliss at 44:35-ish was insane. And then Mick going full "inspiration machine" with it at 49:00... so fun to watch. Cheers guys. Stay safe. Play lots.
Spot on about these sorts of reverbs being transformative instruments in and of themselves. When I was trracking our first ep with my group we were lacking a synth/piano player at the time. I grabbed a big sky, no instructions, found a texture I like, cranked extreme setting and had a go. Ended up with what sounded more like a synth and orchestra than anything guitar related. You really just have to let go and let them do their thing. I sat with the guitar on my lap for most of it with a glass slide. Once you break out of that headspace the possibilities are endless and this isn't even for ambient music necessarily but just sonic soundscapes you could not achieve otherwise
Oh, boy! This is going to be good. I recently got my Blackhole and I'm still diving into all the awesome sounds you can get out of it
Wonderful tones today, thank you very much
Definitely the best intro I’ve heard on the show in a long long time, freakin sweet!
Good chemistry happening when you guys were playing the night sky 🌌 love it!!
Another great show. Your playing is fantastic. The intro and outro were both incredible.
Thank you Tim!
Massive statement from Dan! That room setting with Mick running the Strat through it sounded epic.
Chase Bliss CXM 1978 it can’t get any better than that, wow it certainly is next level. Great demo guys, as always 🎸
Everyday that TPS uploads a video is a GREAT day!
Thank you!
Lead us thru the darkness 🙏🙏🙏
That intro playing genuinely gave me goose bumps, incredible tones!
Thank you!
Woaaah! I've thought for some time that the AKG BX 20 was one of the most epic studio reverb units I've ever heard, even the UA plugin version is huge, but that CXM 1978 is beyond next level. Thanks for another great show 👍
the BESTEST ever intro you lads have done. Great work!
We had the Nightsky in store recently - what a pedal! So easy to get lost very quickly, definitely takes you places as a player.
It's hilarious how many times I forgot to breathe during that vid. Well done guys, well done indeed.
Fantastic! Was hoping to see the Ventris Dual Reverb on this one! Maybe you'll show it sometime! Love everything y'all do!
Great Episode Mates!! Reverb has always been my favorite effect... still goin' strong since 1986! Happy Thanksgiving, be well, stay groovy!!!
FINALLY - you're playing TOGETHER. Sorry if I missed that in the past, but, please do this more.
This is just wonderful. I would buy an album of this! 😆
That intro jam is as good as it gets. Well done lads, well done.
Yet again I'm late to an episode but THIS has to be one of the most musical, mind-boggling, fabulously stimulating, informative and inspiring shows you guys have ever put out. I may never be able to afford the necessary 'dinero' for any of these but man alive am I going to be experimenting with all those pedals I do have. Thank you Dan & Mick, love all that you do for opening my mind and ears (despite the hearing aids...).
Blimey, thanks Paul!
holy moly i loved that intro from the both of you!
What an intro!!! More of that please chaps. Very Brothers in Armsesque
Intro with you both playing at the same time is brutal!
Omg, the end of show jam. Made me smile and also so beautiful, teary. And... You two have such nice personality styles and a supreme interaction style. My GF will watch just bc she finds you two so endearing. That's a win! TX, you two, as always.
Oh wow. Thanks Joe!
Dan, you really have a knack for ambient guitar playing. Super impressed with how you brought best out of the CXM.
Cheers Jordan
That tele was sounding majestic in parts of that Dan, Fantastic... I love otherworldly...
Playing together! More of this, please.
Thank you for this guys! This helped me reach a major reverb decision. Because we all know any reverb decision is a major decision. :-)
Since I started watching TPS just a little over a month ago. I haven’t stopped binging since. I’ve learnt so much from you guys. Thanks Dan & Mick!
Btw, that lick Dan played at 11:06 really reminds me of Mission Impossible II 🤤
You've created a sound track to a movie about Space Cowboys.
That intro was beautiful. 1:04 was peak Mick - what a beautiful lick!! Gotta admit, I get lost in your episodes discussing the ever-more-subtle differences between gain pedals but I loved this show. More like this please! Flange sounds, Phaser sounds, Slicer sounds, Tremelo sounds. I realise you may say it's out of your comfort zone, but that makes it even better - take us on a voyage of discovery!
Thank you David! Yeah this was a lot of fun! Mick here.
Thank goodness both are you are together. It bums me out when one of you can't make it. All the best guys. Cheers!
Dan for sure, and even Mick had that inspired playing thing that happened when they played the CXM... pretty cool to watch it transform them instantly!
I would literally buy that album... really nice playing guys
Literally just came to hear the CXM, and I'm not disappointed. Next reverb pedal for sure.
Another great show! Pro tip for stereo reverb at home: mic your cab and set you DAW to play just the wet sound of a reverb plugin out your monitors. It’s basically free, and sounds incredible.
Such an epic intro ! I should have known I would love the tones from the great playing and ridiculous reverbs. At this point, I’m going to want so many reverb and delay pedals, my pedalboard will sound like I’ve launched a space shuttle into the next galaxy.
We have lift off! :0)
What a quality episode! Time to go play with my Source audio ventris...
Such a lovely vibe during your introduction: "Blinkin' heck!" indeed :)
Amazing show, amazing tones, amazing playing and awesome information! One of the best shows ever specially for me, effects aficcionado. I am a Strymon guy since i got the first one, but that CMX is so goooood!!!! But the price... damn!! Cheers form Portugal guys and thank you for your show.
I echo (appropriately) everyone saying you should play with 2 guitars together more. Not only are the jams wonderful, but it really demonstrates the points you make about sitting in a mix, or having a part with an effect for texture, or comparing frequencies. More, please!
Thanks Oliver!
Me: debating on a Nightsky.
Also me: sees the TH-cam notification and clicked on it so fast!
Thank you fellas!
The Strymon pedal is..wow....amazing! The impromptu jam was awesome!
I enjoyed that! Thank you!
Pressed the button on the NightSky after many weeks of prevarication. Thanks chaps.
Not gonna make the sound engineer “unhappier.” Good laugh at the expense of my sound engineering self, I love it :D
From us to you Jason. THANK YOU. We couldn’t do it without you. :0)
That opening was proggy AF. Loved it!
Holy cow that Chase Bliss pedal is outstanding! The most amazing thing is that I can see how it could possibly be worth its price tag. Options, functionality and above all: sound. The fidelity sounded a district level up from the others, which is crazy
I can't have been the only one who immediately went: MASSIVE LEGENDE HERE!!!, after that intro :)
Knocked this right out of the park into the next city. Brilliant lads this is right up my street 👏 👍
Loved it! Sooooo good 👍
That 'hall' algorithm on the CXM is possibly (probably) the best hall-type reverb I have ever heard. I am lucky enough to own some amazing reverb pedals and an Axe FX III. The best reverbs I have used, up to now, have been from plugins. This pedal looks very well thought-out with a perfect feauture set IMO. My £50 Valhalla Room plugin will probably get me close enough for the sake of an £850 saving, but this is the best reverb I have heard in a pedal. Wow.
Who would thumbs down this? Always love watching you guys!! I'd love to see a Pete Cornish segment from you two!!
This was great!! thanks!
That intro jam sounded fantastic guys!
Another fantastic show ... SCHWANG-a-lious! Just bought a CXM 1978 ... wowie! Gotta say M&D your playing is really wonderful too ... thanks.
Woah. Serious purchase Kevin - enjoy!
That CXM is the most 'natural' sounding reverb i've ever heard. Amazing
Us too. Mick here. It’s really crazy good. Hooray!
I just bought a JHS 3 Series reverb, and I tell you what, for the price it's simply phenomenal. It's only mono, but the tails are so clean and there is a lot of variation within a very simple design.
The opening reverb spacescape was cosmically inspiring.
Thank you Matt!
First of all, you guys are just the BALLZ! Second, I have recently begun using a Boss SY1000 in my rig and realized that it best mixes in as an effect much like these reverbs; tons of modulation/delay/reverb options AND 3 completely tweekable synth engines. I use a mixer to blend my Godin Multiac Jazz SA's 3 outputs (humbucker/piezo/synth), and their respective signal/effects paths. I am really loving the extreme flexibility of this rig. I play mostly solo singer/guitarist gigs and this has been very inspiring. Having said all that, I need help talking myself out of a Nightsky😊
They’re all great, but having heard the CXM at NAMM, I can honestly say it’s utterly unbelievable. You two are the absolute best. LOVE YOUUUU!!!
And you Aaron!
Epic opening :) tasty tones.
Great Episode! Truly massive Reverb sounds!
This Strymon Nightsky is one interesting pedal.
But i even sold my EQD Afterneath because my TC Hall of Fame does pretty much everything i need.
It’s a great pedal, and deservedly extremely popular!
Oh god this is basically my dream episode guys
Wall to wall tone! Cheers Dan and Mick!!
