How to write an awesome sci fi soundtrack: 1.- Put Nightsky and Volante side by side. 2.- Feed Nightsky a SOS loop from Volante. 3.- Press record and place catnip and toys over and around the pedals for good measure. 4.- Go for a bite, put on a good movie. 5.- Done!
I applaud you, Strymon, for going into the more experimental realm with your pedals. I’ve always wanted to hear what your company is capable of with more unconventional effect types, so this perfect for me. I’m really stoked to try this one out. I hope you all continue to venture into the unknown. :)
Yea I agree, there's already sooooo so many options for the usual effect types, even by strymon themselves. So I don't get why people have to hate on this, as they could just choose something else from the plathora of options. Edit: Well it seems like the reception on this video is rather positive compared to the sequencer demo I just came from.
@@leo.nordmann Hi! How do you like the nighsky thus far? For me its my favourite pedal over the last year, man every time I play it I learn something new about it. I think one needs a lot of time with Nighsky and multiple manual readthroughs to fully understand it. It sounds astonishing and almost feels like another instrument added in, reminds me of organs or fafisas sometimes.... Really creative. Sequencer is maybe a concept not that developed, but I think its only a minor part of it and still a lot of fun. I use sequencer into complex delay lines and bigsky, that is some killer sound! Cant wait until I get a volante, saw a video where nightsky sequencer is fed into a fully mechanics cranked volante, UNREAL!
what did you spend yours on? haha Hopefully you save the $300 in lost wages they're putting out and whatever you may still be getting due to extended claims and whatnot, they slacking on the new stimulus smh
Every Strymon announcement I tell myself I don’t need it. Then I watch this and the Pete deep dive and I decide my band needs to go in a new direction just so I can use this pedal.
I own a NightSky, and the one BIG thing you have to be aware of, you will need an external midi controller, it can hold 300 patches in 3 banks, BUT they have no librarian to keep track of this so you better think about it, also you can not access the next 8 patches from Strymond unless you can send controller, and PC messages, now you can create cool patches fast, but where do you store them? and how do you retrieve them? I reached out to Strymond and their words are you must buy an external control and figure out a patch librarian on your own, now that being said, I own a Morningstar MC8 and have begun to make and store my own patches, but at this price point you will have to invest in another controller to take advantage of this pedal...this is never mentioned in any review that I have seen yet, and its a BIG deal at this price point...Helix, Eventide H9 all have advanced editor/ librarian software to support their pedals, this does not...
Mine is arriving today! My first Strymon. Some of the most beautiful guitars sounds ever coming out of this thing and hours of fun with knobs, buttons and killer tone with no menu diving. It will go perfect with my Boss DD-200!
Sounds absolutely gorgeous! Want to own this pedal now! "Skys" the limit when it comes to recording at home or playing live! Just adds a a whole new dimension to making music really, I've got a million & 1 ideas for this amazing bit of kit...Intro's, interludes, fade outs & endless layers of lush ethereal sounds! & that's just with guitars & no other effect! Then add a keyboard??...This pedal would keep me busy for years! THANX guys I'm sold! Want one now! XxxX
Same here. I'm way late in the pedal game. I'm going tones of research and finding this just made my projected pedal purches shrink to just this and the double barrel from JHS.
Sold - within a few seconds to be honest. If you dig the album "Apollo: Atmospheres and Soundtracks" by Brian Eno, Roger Eno and Daniel Lanios ...this is a gift.
WOW! So many great examples!🤯Really awesome playing! I'm usually kinda picky, but went from not even thinking about getting one to "I'm GONNA get one soon" haha! My favorites were Spectroscope (0:35), Dodging meteors (0:58), Running on the moon (5:42), Omniminous (10:31) and Libration (11:21)
@@grantserrels2093 Even better - I have Devi Ever Shoegazer (two fuzzes: Torn's Peaker chained with Soda Meister), so whenever I can get my hands on this Strymon, I'll play the hell out of it
I would buy it just for the floating effect! It's mesmerising. I love my El Capistan and Blue Sky and have had 'em on my board since they came on the market.
The first “to die for” pedal I have seen demoed in a few years. Unbelievable. Combination retro vibe slash let’s move this shit into this century please. I have gone pedal nuts in the past 4 years, and I thought I had conquered my gear lust. Think again🤣
All pedal producers realize synth players are an expanding part of the market. And this pedal was clearly designed (and marketed) with that in mind. with terms like 'reverberant syntheses", adding essentially a LFO section with multiple waveforms, and the featured promo vid for it is all synths/sound design, has no guitar at all.
No front but you should really tell them that with infinite in combination with morph, you could do whammy reverbs! Completely fun, especially when having a dual delay timeline afterwards with the second delay set to 4/1 and both delays in parallel. Thats some whammy reverb frippertronic vibe, LOL Most underrated pedal of all time. In my oppinion, far too little demos online for what the nightsky is capable of.
I'm going to sell a pile of my used pedals to buy this. Replaces my EHX Superego+ Synth Engine, in every way and a lot more. It's as if Strymon built this pedal special for me! Seriously.
Man, when I learned it's going to be a another reverb pedal I was slightly underwhelmed, although I love reverb. But hearing this I think I will have to give it a shot!
At first I was thinking and hearing that this is just a bunch of presets boxed up in a boxed. Then I gave in. This demo makes me think this one is worth a try. I'm still not a fan of some of these ridiculous price points....this one is more deserved than a tweaked RAT pedal or another take on a preamp box. Way to bring it Strymon.
Nice! I think this can get a lot of those Daniel Lanois sounds from his Prime Time > reverb rig--love the freeze feature. And extra cool points for the Docs ;)
And here I thought I wanted the Big Sky… nope, scratch that, we are now going for a blue sky and a nightsky. I know it’s got like 16 presets, but I need something simple like the blue sky as well so I can always access normal everyday reverb without little to no tweaking. I am not an advanced man 😂
Produces a lot of similar sounds to the Eventide Eclipse in terms of complexity and atmospherics. However having that kind of sonic flavor in a foot pedal rather than a studio rack unit is very useful (and impressive).
I've been thinking about getting a synthesizer, but I want it to give me the ability to deep dive on reverb, modulation, and such. I've also been looking at doing sequencing with a guitar pedal... and hoping that some such thing would exist. Two weeks ago, I had no idea this pedal was out there, or that instead of a sequencer within a synthesizer, I actually want a synthesizer trapped inside a guitar pedal. Weird. But I like it.
Yea. This pedal has the most knobs, buttons and lights, not to mention the alt functions, of any pedal I've ever seen. This pedal is very guitar synth-like. Did you pick one up? It's killer.
Wonder if this will appear as a eurorack module at some point, like the eurorack Magneto to the Volante. There could be a load patch inputs to control the modulatable sections. You can a lot of this now in modular but you need a lot of modules which would cost a lot more and having it in one would sure be a great space saver. I like the quantizable tails and a CV input for an external sequencer input would be great too but by the looks of thing they can be played over midi which is nice :-)
Once my Effects loop is converted from parrallel to series I'll get a Strymon tape Echo machine. I can't believe how much I get out of my Riverside. This thing is madness.
I think the pedal I'm looking for is the delay version of this with a bunch of granular, micro looping, etc. options. I like a lot of what this can do but I'm not sure I have space for more reverb.

In other words, if I don't need reverb, can I make use of the rest of this pedals power somehow?
Critics: Sure Strymon conquered the market for traditional reverbs with the Big Sky but they could never create something unique for us experimental players! Strymon: *hold my beer*
Covid pedal ... you can use it without a keyboard player... This item and a looper... the future for musician :( ....great job as always by the way... i use Flint from years... Top class!!!
Good lord! How did I miss this? You guys basically designed this pedal for me (me, the guy who did a 25 minute youtube video of me just playing with my big sky making all kinds of noises guitars don't normally make). WHEN is it available? 2:18 sounds straight out of Eno's "Apollo" record. Gorgeous.
Wished you all would have included the clean tone of the pedal steel "Floating" example. I'm going to try recreate that with my Big Sky,timeline and some of the octave generators in the hx stomp. If I don't get it I'm going to be so tempted to by this pedal for that one sound

This with Omnisphere, game over.
And vocals!

One of the best three pedals released in 2020 from the sounds from it... BRAVO!
I have gone through several reverb pedals and this is my favourite

On the want list. Some amazing sounds here and infinite possibilities, again Strymon have amazed.
When it went BREEEWWEE WOOOOSH MEEEEAARRRRNNNNNN OOOOOOOOO yea, i felt that
Amazing sound and the sequencer is a great idea, i predict some infinite possibilities !
Great work Strymon as always !
some settings are so Great for song INTROs!
I can hear it now playing inside my head!
Steven Wilsons gonna go nuts with this
Ian Williams too.
1:00 has me sold
This is the most beautiful pedal I have ever heard. How the fuck is this even possible

Wow they really kiiled it with this pedal. Features and branding totally on point. Excellent playing throughout too.
Thank you!
I would love to hear the Nightsky alongside the Volante!
Yes, in parallel!
I’d love to hear some demos with a synth like the Behringer Poly D or Korg Minilogue XD
I think this sounds perfectly with a synth rather than a guitar imho
Vhego I think it would sound amazing with anything. The only question is after I get this, will I still use my Big Sky 🙂
@@ZAYAZOfficial I believe this is kinda the Darker Sky so I bet you will still use the Big Sky!
hope they get peter dyer to do it like he did for the volante

One day you'll understand there are more Synth users of your pedals than Guitarists. This day, you'll start to add synth sounds in your examples =)
All pedal producers realize synth players are an expanding part of the market. And this pedal was clearly designed (and marketed) with that in mind. with terms like 'reverberant syntheses", adding essentially a LFO section with multiple waveforms, and the featured promo vid for it is all synths/sound design, has no guitar at all.
Haha no, the guitar market is larger by many magnitudes.
jeez 👍 nice saturation in the ominous. that could easily get out of hand otherwise. real nice sound. magic pedal

Very curious as to how you use the NS to replicate the freeze function of the Superego+. Do tell!
Man, when I learned it's going to be a another reverb pedal I was slightly underwhelmed, although I love reverb. But hearing this I think I will have to give it a shot!
someday I will have at least the pedal of my dreams the Big Sky ♥️
How are you getting , close to, those tones currently? I hope there's affordable alternatives for you you can use immediately
The Big Sky is great.
HELL YES!!!!! Thanks Strymon!!! ♥ ♥ ♥
Another amazing creation. Love it
About time for a Peter Dyer demo of Nightsky? Yup!
Joe Bonamassa will no doubt chain 2 together for his sound
Wow, that's so crazy. I think I would never be able to use 1/3 of its potential. Nevertheless, great product! Wish you all success.
At first I was thinking and hearing that this is just a bunch of presets boxed up in a boxed.

Wonder if this will appear as a eurorack module at some point, like the eurorack Magneto to the Volante. There could be a load patch inputs to control the modulatable sections.
