I literally emailed Empress 13 years ago asking if there was an off-chance they would make a smaller form factor of just the reverse delays. As such, this is LITERALLY A DREAM COME TRUE HOLY SHIT
Would the folks @ChaseBlissAudio ever consider releasing a company EP? There's so much musical/engineering talent there (as evidenced by this and other demos/interviews) - I think it'd be an amazing showcase of both the people and pedals from Chase Bliss 😊
Every time I think "right, I have everything covered now, I'm not buying any more hardware", you guys release something new. This sounds ridiculously luscious.
Chase Bliss pedals, videos and graphic design in general are a pure work of art. Would be awesome to have demos with synths in the future too. Thank you!
received mine yesterday, hooked it up straight out of the box and immediately got lost for 3 hours. now getting the hang of how this thing works and am blown away a second time, so much possibilities. truly a masterpiece. thank you for this! but then, all of your boxes are visually and sonically unique treasures.❤
Continually pushing the boundaries of what pedals can sound like. This is a gorgeous homage plus insane amounts of other goodies. Beautiful sounds here, really soothing and mentally stimulating.❤
What a great, instructive, and inspiring demo! It is rare that a TH-cam demo explores the range of possibilities in a pedal so fully. And kudos for incorporating the dipswitch bank into the demo. On my old stereo Line 6 Echo Park, I would set it to fully wet reverse delay, plug into A and run A's output to B's input. Because of its internal programming, A would feed some of its output to B's output, which would normally result in a mono input providing two slightly different reversed delay outputs. But feeding A's output into B would re-reverse, such that B's output was now a melange of both forward AND reverse delayed copies. HOWEVER, keep in mind that, just like A, B would send a version of whatever *it* did to mix with A's output. What you end up with is a delightful mix of forward and backward delayed repeats, staggered in every which way. Of course, with *none* of the pitch changes, filtering, or modulation options that the Reverse Mode C provides. But it gives me a sense of just how much MORE fun the RMC can be with all those options added. This is a REALLY good pedal.
Received mine a few days ago. Within a few minutes I was able to get beautiful rich tones and I have no idea how to use this incredible pedal. Then I plugged my bass into it and same results - super full rich wonderful tone. I am instantly in love with this pedal. Can't wait to learn how to use it as intended. Thank you Chase Bliss and Empress - another amazing pedal!
I already spent my 2.3k for my spending spree month. This is easily in the top 5 best Boutique style delay pedals probably ever made. I'm waiting for a meris reverb workstation and already have an lvx and zoia for delay, but I'll probably buy this over the mood mk2. The only thing I wish it had from the mood is that bottom left knob hidden parameter "darken".
Holy Smokes! What an amazing array of psychedelic gadgets you've jammed into a convenient lil metal box. I'm in disbelief. Chase Bliss never ceases to amaze and instantly pique musical thought experiments in my mind, setting it ablaze with endless possibilities and "what if^scenarios... For example, what if I ran my Mother-32, Subharmonicon, or DFAM through it? Or my Grandmother? Or my BcRich 10-string guitar & 8-string bass? How harmonically far out into the cosmic realms of WOWEE could we go?!
This is the Collab I'm feel so much emotion for. And what a result. A bone fide masterpiece based on a masterpiece. Just like everything else you do. Love you to bits. ❤️
I just recently entered the @ChaseBlissAudio rabbit hole with ordering the Mood mkii limited release and a Thermae purchased from your neighbors down the street at El Diablo Amps and Guitars. Those two pedals alone have been beyond inspiring for my bass gtr & synths but then you go ahead and release this gorgeous collaborative specimen of which I must have! Thank you for your craftsmanship, creative brilliance and endless happy accidents! ❤
Bought it the first day. Can't wait to incorporate into the sound design of an off-Broadway show going up next year. I love this company's ethos and approach. Should arrive early October. Yay!
The glitch pedal of my dreams 🥰 all those lovely oscillations and pings tickle my ears in all the right ways, definitely going to have to consider getting one 😉
I’m not sure what happened while lost in this beauty of a video. my phone just glitched out, added the preorder to cart, input my credit card info and hit order…oooops 😊 Must be something with the epic harmonic frequencies being output. Y’all hacked my phone…I completely blame this on you Joel and Steve 😂
Beautiful! One of my biggest regrets is selling my Vintage Modified Superdelay that I had way back in the day. I may have to consider this Reverse Mode C now.
Please do a Small Batch Bliss for re-releasing Bliss-factory, or even better: a "Bliss-Factory-Probe" that instead of an antenna has MIDI controllable pitch squeals!
Lol same brother. Alarm went off. Dropped $400. Hope it didn’t suck lol. Empress is my all time fav so I knew this collab had to be something I jumped on. Can’t wait to see what you do with it!
Empress SuperDelay (in black) was my first fancy pedal beyond a RC-20XL BOSS looper. Reverse Mode was one of the first weirdo effects I tried, might need this for the nostalgia factor even though glitchy delays don’t get my heartbeat racing like they used to.
Mine comes tomorrow! So pumped! Sadly, these are already popping up on reverb for $200 over msrp. I hope that everyone who wanted one was able to order and the people that ordered this pedal just to resell are stuck with a pedal they don’t care about. Doubt it, but one can hope! Lol.
Maan this is cool! There’s only one problem, now I have an even harder time deciding what my next pedal will be.. I’ve been looking at the Thermae or a used Tonal Recall because I love the sound and feeling of those analog delays, BUT I’ve also looked at the Mood MK2 because of how inspiring it seems to be and that I could use it as a delay too. And now you released this, how can I possibly make a decision? My Dark World needs good buddy.
It would be really nice if chase bliss could .ake a vidoe showcasing each of their pedals capability and musical "scope". I honestly feel confused about the last 4 pedals theyve released. Seems they more or less do the same thing.
I've already been saving up to buy a new guitar, but I might have to pre-order this instead. Dang it you guys! It's like a mini Microcosm and I need it. EDIT: Pre-ordered.

Forgot about inflation for a good 12 minutes and 55 seconds.
I hadn’t thought about inflation in hours and then I read your comment 😢🎉 this pedal makes sexy sounds though
My mind was inflation free for a good few days until you brought it up. 😔
some one, somewhere, always benefits from inflation.
Would the folks @ChaseBlissAudio ever consider releasing a company EP? There's so much musical/engineering talent there (as evidenced by this and other demos/interviews) - I think it'd be an amazing showcase of both the people and pedals from Chase Bliss 😊
I'm loving so much the ecosystem formed by Chase Bliss, Cooper FX and Knobs. Goldorak team
Every time I think "right, I have everything covered now, I'm not buying any more hardware", you guys release something new. This sounds ridiculously luscious.
This is magical. Joel, Knobs, and Co. never miss.
does knobs work at chase bliss now?
@@JasGoodgameJamzYuh yup
Chase Bliss pedals, videos and graphic design in general are a pure work of art. Would be awesome to have demos with synths in the future too. Thank you!
EXACTLY!!! Synths are what a lot of people want to hear.
Listening to this riding a train through the English countryside and it was a great 13 minutes.
There is a special place in heaven for Joel and Knobs for making these wonderfully soupy videos all these years.

Thank you!
Can't wait to see stephan's review from the pedal zone!
The frequency shifter is amazing! 7:48
Please make a demo with synth sounds 🙏
I absolutely adore the visual design of your pedals. They are all so pretty, truly works of art.
Closing song is legit one of the most beautiful pieces of yours I’ve heard. Hoping to grab one of these to try and make knobs sounds 🙏
Continually pushing the boundaries of what pedals can sound like. This is a gorgeous homage plus insane amounts of other goodies. Beautiful sounds here, really soothing and mentally stimulating.❤
Even my eyes don't get left out: the video production is a joy to watch.
This is the best short demo out there, thank you.
It is crazy how satisfyingly good this sounds even streaming over youtube. What an amazing design in both function and aesthetics! Wow!
I look forward to all of my favorite TH-camrs demoing this pedal. 😺👍

This sounds gorgeous, you guys did a great job with this pedal in capturing the magic of the original and taking it somewhere new.

This is what I really wanted out of my mood! Pre ordered!

Chase Bliss, once again knocking it out of the park!
Mood
Generation loss
Habit
Automatone
Reverse Mode C
-Edit-
Please make another batch!
Really beautiful sounds and modulation options ❤ really great collab pedal. The stereo control pan was the most impressive.
I just recently entered the @ChaseBlissAudio rabbit hole with ordering the Mood mkii limited release and a Thermae purchased from your neighbors down the street at El Diablo Amps and Guitars.

I'm loving the movement in the stereo field. Very nice.
Bought it the first day. Can't wait to incorporate into the sound design of an off-Broadway show going up next year. I love this company's ethos and approach. Should arrive early October. Yay!
The glitch pedal of my dreams 🥰 all those lovely oscillations and pings tickle my ears in all the right ways, definitely going to have to consider getting one 😉
Synth demo, please!

Y’all hacked my phone…I completely blame this on you Joel and Steve 😂
I already ordered it and I have to keep coming back because I’m so excited to get it!
Beautiful! One of my biggest regrets is selling my Vintage Modified Superdelay that I had way back in the day. I may have to consider this Reverse Mode C now.
Can you guys do a demo with some stereo synth please? :)
Jawdropping achievement; thanks to all involved!
Love this pedal…I have an expression pedal to play with the offset(seems to be the most useful imo) Great pedal, really loving the collaborations!!
my two favorite pedal companys in the same room? what is this, a crossover episode?
This just shot to the top of the list of things I want
I can’t wait for the Fairfield collab.. a shallow water with the midi routing of a CB pedal..
9:20 and 11:25 are my fave moments ❤❤❤ beautiful video knobs ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Thanks very much for artificial scarcity. I literally can't find one for sale anywhere. super innovative idea making pedals inaccessible
To be fair, we haven't shipped these to any customers yet, and aren't expecting to for another 6-8 weeks, as this was a pre-order.
Chase Bliss and Empress...yes please. Pre-ordered.
This sounds lovely. Inspired me to play guitar too ❤
Please do a Small Batch Bliss for re-releasing Bliss-factory, or even better: a "Bliss-Factory-Probe" that instead of an antenna has MIDI controllable pitch squeals!
Two days ago I didn’t know anything about chase bliss. Now I have Mood, Gen Loss II and pre ordered Reverse C.
Thank you!
Simply the « knobs touch » ! Love it
The filter knob on this pedal sounds beautiful.
Definitely on my list for my dream board!
I preordered and I don’t even remember what happened, it was so fast
Lol same brother. Alarm went off. Dropped $400. Hope it didn’t suck lol. Empress is my all time fav so I knew this collab had to be something I jumped on. Can’t wait to see what you do with it!
thank you for existing
I have an EchoSystem and it’s been my fav delay since it was first released…I really think I need to find one of these…
I like that small batch idea. I just hope there will be "analog heart - digital brain" products again.
There’s only so many analog effects possible it seems tho? That they’ve already covered.
Wow, this thing is a bottomless pit of inspiration!
Empress SuperDelay (in black) was my first fancy pedal beyond a RC-20XL BOSS looper. Reverse Mode was one of the first weirdo effects I tried, might need this for the nostalgia factor even though glitchy delays don’t get my heartbeat racing like they used to.
(I’m black)
another amazing sounding pedal
well done
Mine comes tomorrow! So pumped! Sadly, these are already popping up on reverb for $200 over msrp. I hope that everyone who wanted one was able to order and the people that ordered this pedal just to resell are stuck with a pedal they don’t care about. Doubt it, but one can hope! Lol.
Wait, you mean to tell me Chase Bliss has released an ambient digital glitch box thing?
Jakob Bro and Bill Frisell could use such a beautiful thing! Well done!
Nice to see this collaboration
AMAZING! LOOKING FORWARD TO BUY IT!
absolutely beautiful 🥰
what is the target demographic for this? people who have never heard of Norns, Mtl Asm, eurorack, or the new Boss DM-101 /EAE Sending v2?
Maan this is cool! There’s only one problem, now I have an even harder time deciding what my next pedal will be.. I’ve been looking at the Thermae or a used Tonal Recall because I love the sound and feeling of those analog delays, BUT I’ve also looked at the Mood MK2 because of how inspiring it seems to be and that I could use it as a delay too.

A beautiful demo - as always! ❤
I am blown away
I’ve never been so excited for a pedal tbh
Just ordered ! Love the artwork as well
Great jobs team Chase Bliss! Pre-Ordered!!
... what 😮CB you make wild stuff and I love it
Reminds me of the Hologram Microcosm a bit! But maybe even cooler
Loved it! Got it! Can’t wait to play with it!
It would be really nice if chase bliss could .ake a vidoe showcasing each of their pedals capability and musical "scope". I honestly feel confused about the last 4 pedals theyve released. Seems they more or less do the same thing.
Cannot wait to get this device of magic
I've already been saving up to buy a new guitar, but I might have to pre-order this instead. Dang it you guys! It's like a mini Microcosm and I need it.
EDIT: Pre-ordered.
Would love to see a Courtney Swain demo of this!
This is just stellar.
So good.
beautiful, this would be perfect if there was an octave down option as well
I'm feeling truly super
Wow. Can’t wait to see how Joey Landreth is going to incorporate this
Haha, right?!
Me either!
I didn't need this until I saw this.
The footswitches on my unit remain momentary even with latch dipswitch engaged. Help please.
I feel like this does what my Strymon Dig and MOOD mk1 do in 1 pedal? Color me intrigued
Frequency shifter! 8:10 Wow!!!
Any chance this is ever getting a reissue/v2 release? It's literally everything I'm looking for from a delay these days.
At the moment, there are no plans for a 2nd batch or updated version of Reverse Mode C.
Brilliant!
Damn reverse delay actually makes sense now
i am looking forward to bouncing the bejesus outta that offset control
Too bad Empress has already sold me the ZOIA, muahahahahaha
…honestly this looks excellent. Congratulations!
Can't wait to see Reverse mode B on patchstorage lol
Wow that’s amazing. ❤❤❤❤
Guys, i love you.
Sounds like you made a Baba O'Riley pedal. "Out here in the fields!"
Twinkle & Strange ❤
i'm inspired to make music today now.
The first frame made me recreate the Brad Pitt meme pointing at the screen and saying "HEY I KNOW THAT PRODUCTION STYLE"
wonderful!
Amazing 😲
