Very cool! It’s really well executed and I’ve liked it on everything I’ve tried it with so far! I will definitely do a video on it with drums as well at some point. Thanks for the comment and glad you’ve enjoyed it yourself! :)
Thank you so much! It’s definitely one of my favorite effects of all time. And yep! That’s the track lol, I stumbled into the notes and had to run with it haha 😆- it’s a classic! :)
Wasn’t sold on it at first but by the end I really dug it. One thing is very clear, it’s absolutely gorgeous aesthetically. Have you used the Mercury 7? It’s the only reverb I’ve ever owned and I’m happy with the sound but it’s unlabeled secondary functions prevent me from tweaking much. This is far more encouraging with its very simple layout.
Totally agree with you on all counts! Gorgeous and the "everything on the front panel" layout is definitely ideal. I'm not at all a fan of secondary/hidden features (especially ones you might want to change regularly) so I get you there. I haven't tried the Mercury 7, but Meris definitely makes some good stuff so I'll probably get to some of their stuff someday haha. Thanks for commenting - much appreciated!
Im loving it... my only question is why? when you have stuff like big sky/empress pedals that offer much more option for the same price range. Idk, real question... when its an algorythm/digital, id go for the best, what makes this a better buy?
Fair question to ask. I think so much of it comes down to personal opinion and your individual taste. What would be the best to you might be the worst for someone else (I've learned that time and time again while doing these videos). Why would someone use a pedal at all when there are devices with built-in reverb, or plug-ins in your DAW? Like lots of us, I like the hands-on controls way more than software for example, and I definitely like some algorithms more than others. Something like the Big Sky definitely covers a lot of ground, and from what I can tell (never used one) it does the shimmer thing REALLY well, and that's kinda the go-to for it, even if it has plenty of other sounds on board. For one, I like the Ultrasheer for the specific flavor of reverb it provides (I cover the rest of what I like about it in my final thoughts section of the video), but I can't say it would be a better buy over any others since it's all subjective anyway (as are budgets as well). What I can say is that I really like what the Ultrasheer provides and whether or not it's for you, that's something only a shopper can decide for themselves, even if it would be easier/a cop out for me to just say "it's awesome, buy it!" haha. Hopefully the video allows you to hear it in some different contexts and can help you make that decision a little easier. =)
OK after owning everything that you have mentioned. This 100% sounds better than any of the empress algorithms. The big sky is great but it’s a little more synthetic if you want the 1978 plate sound it’s done honestly perfectly then this is the option for the price. The most letdown I ever was was when I owned the Empress reverb just what a total let down that was, after all the hype
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I’ve only tried out the ZOIA from Empress personally (still figuring it out haha). I definitely need to try a Big Sky! It’s been around for a long time and people love it for sure. The Eventide H9 too. 😅
Hey Kunchang, thanks for your question! Sadly I'm not an authority on the CXM 1978 from Chase Bliss, since I haven't been able to use one yet myself, but from what I understand what it has in added tone-sculpting capability, it lacks the vibrato of the Ultrasheer. I would also say it's tough to make that call for someone else anyway, but what I always suggest, especially because the used market is so strong these days, that you should just pick one up (of either) to try it out if you're interested. You'll likely always be able to sell whichever you decide isn't for you, and nothing beats a hands-on. I personally have kept some effects that have a lot of overlap because of any number of reasons, but sometimes there's just that "ness" that makes you want to have something around even if it isn't exactly "necessary" haha. Maybe I'll loop back to this if I get a chance to try a CXM 1978 and I can weigh in with added authority, but for now, I know I definitely love the Ultrasheer! =)
Hello, chiming in your say I have both and I use the vongon more these days. I’ve had both long enough for the honeymoon period to be over. I’d consider selling my CXM before this tbh. This is simple and straight forward. They both sound incredible but you have to decide if you’re a tweaker or you just want some nice verb. Good luck
That Ultrasheer certainly adds a lot to the output of the AF-MKII. Thanks for sharing. Went straight into my Wish List.
Right? I totally agree, they sound great together! =)
Now I want one
Haha that’s fair! It’s pretty want-able 😆
Love it! I've been using mine basically on everything since I got it :) It's very cool on drums as well!

Would love to get one of these....
It’s one of my “never sell” pedals! 👌
This thing is great!
...keeping it impressive
with the nice Production
Values too :]
I agree!! And thank you 🙌 I try! Haha
Cool pedal !
It’s one of my absolute favorites! 🙌
@@Duskmos sounds great 😊
Cool demo
Thanks so much! This is a really fun pedal, so it was an easy one to make! =)
Great demo as usual. This sounds fantastic and I'm now looking to get one. Was the song on the bass section:Basement Jaxx-Where's your head at?
Thank you so much! It’s definitely one of my favorite effects of all time. And yep! That’s the track lol, I stumbled into the notes and had to run with it haha 😆- it’s a classic! :)
Hi sounds great 😎😍😎 wish you a nice weekend! C ya
It really does sound great doesn’t it? I’m a big fan!
Thanks and you have a good one too!! :)

How do you think it compares to cxm? Can the cxm get the same sound as the vongon ? I’m trying to justify having both

@@brndnwilliams42069 wow - thanks for the info
@@brndnwilliams42069 Thanks for your input! I bet there will be quite a few people curious about this comparison indeed! Much appreciated! 😎
