Strymon NightSky Time-Warped Reverberator เอฟเฟคก้อน

“The Strymon NightSky is not just a typical reverb effect, but a ‘Reverberant Synthesis Workstation’—a tool for crafting complex and vast soundscapes. It combines reverb with advanced sound-shaping functions such as Pitch Shifting, Modulation, and a Step Sequencer, making it possible to create sounds beyond imagination, without limits.”

Data & Details

• Effect Type: Time-Warped Reverberator / Reverberant Synthesis Workstation
• Core Concept: A pedal for creating vast, ethereal, and cinematic soundscapes by treating reverb as an instrument.
• Target Audience: Guitarists, ambient/experimental musicians, producers, and sound designers.

Features & Functions

The NightSky’s interface is logically divided into sections, making its complex functionality intuitive and accessible.

1. REVERB CORE:
   • MOD: Select from six different modulation waveforms (e.g., vibrato, chorus, flange) to add movement to the reverb tail.
   • DECAY: Controls the length of the reverb, from a short decay to a near-infinite sustain.
   • TEXTURE: Choose from three reverb processing structures:
     • Sparse: A clean, granular-style reverb with audible early reflections.
     • Dense: A smooth, immediate-response plate-like reverb.
     • Diffuse: A slow-building, atmospheric wash.
   • SIZE/PITCH: Adjusts the size of the virtual space and can also be used to pitch-shift the reverb core.
2. MODULATION SECTION:
   • TARGET: Assign the modulation to affect the Verb, Pitch, or Filter section.
   • SHAPE: Select one of six LFO shapes (Triangle, Square, Ramp, etc.) to define the character of the movement.
   • SPEED & DEPTH: Control the rate and intensity of the modulation.
3. VOICE SECTION:
   • SHIMMER: A key feature that adds a pitch-shifted layer to the reverb. You can select various musical intervals, from an octave down to an octave up.
   • GLIMMER: Dynamically enhances upper or lower frequency harmonics for extra sparkle or depth.
   • DRIVE: Adds harmonic saturation pre- or post-reverb for added warmth or grit.
4. FILTER SECTION:
   • Features a resonant Low Pass and a High Pass filter to sculpt the tonal character of the reverb tail, allowing you to perfectly place the sound in a mix.
5. 8-STEP SEQUENCER:
   • Its most powerful feature, allowing you to sequence the reverb’s pitch through up to eight steps, creating hypnotic, arpeggiated melodies within the reverberations.

Highlights & Strengths

• Studio-Grade Audio Quality: Delivers pristine, clear, and dimensional reverb sounds, as expected from Strymon.
• Boundless Creativity: Acts as both an effect and an instrument, capable of everything from classic reverb tones to complex, evolving soundscapes.
• Onboard Presets: Save up to 16 presets directly on the pedal, and access up to 300 via MIDI.
• Integrated Step Sequencer: Offers a new dimension of rhythmic and melodic potential not found in typical reverb pedals.
• Full Connectivity: Supports stereo inputs and outputs, expression pedal control, and full MIDI implementation (In/Out).
• Infinite/Freeze Function: Allows you to sustain the reverb tail indefinitely, creating a pad to play over.
