The Electro Harmonix Oceans 11 reverb pedal is packed with eleven shimmering reverbs from essential to exotic. Its mode button allows you to select between up to three different variations of many, resulting in a myriad lush tones to play with. A useful tails switch allows you to select whether the reverb tails off when switch to bypass mode, or stops immediately. The Oceans 11 is also capable of producing a continuous reverb over which other reverbs can be played.
It also allows you to take even more control over the tone of each reverb by accessing “hidden” parameters through Secondary Knob Mode. Use the secondary knob parameters to fine tune the exact tone you want, or push the OCEANS 11 into wild, unexpected sonic territory. As Mike Matthews of Electro Harmonix says, "It’s compact, affordable and delivers serious control so you can really fine tune your effects. It also sounds incredible. The Oceans 11 is our best reverb yet!"
Supplied with a mains power supply, the Electro Harmonix Oceans 11 is now available from Merchant City Music, online and in our Glasgow store. Pop into the shop, and one of our friendly staff members will be happy to talk you through the features. Alternatively, buy online for fast delivery to the UK, Europe and beyond.
Electro Harmonix Oceans 11 Reverb Pedal with 11 lush reverbs
The Oceans 11’s reverbs are:
- HALL – the rich reverberant sound of a grand concert hall
- SPRING – pays homage to the classic Fender® 6G15 tube spring reverb
- PLATE – the lush, warm reverb that got its name because a large metal plate was originally used to create it
- REVRS – emulates the quirky reverse reverb effect where a note’s reverb fades-in backwards. (Jimmy Page claims to have invented it.)
- ECHO –sends a recirculating echo thru the Plate reverb. The crisp clear delays get tastefully smudged by the airy plate reverb
- TREM – reverb plus tremolo that’s applied to both the wet and dry mix of a Hall reverb, your choice of three different tremolo shapes
- MOD – modulated reverb, three modes. Chorus laced onto the reverb tails creates a luscious atmospheric effect. Flanger wraps around the reverb tails and weaves a hypnotic tapestry. Chorus and flanger combined.
- DYNA – Swell, gate and duck. Swell silences your notes’ attacks before blooming the tails back into the soundscape. Gate passes the reverb tail thru a noise gate that opens when it detects playing. (Phil Collins popularized the technique by applying it to drums.) Duck compresses the reverb tail while you’re playing and fades it back in when you’re resting.
- AUTO-INF – Auto-infinite reverb that triggers a reverb wash for each note or chord. When a new one is struck, the previously resounding reverb crossfades to the new one
- SHIM – Shimmer generates a rich octave-shifted reverb wash that modulates and blossoms behind your signal
- POLY – Polyphonic reverb, two configurable bi-directional pitch shifts operating on your pre-reverb signal. Combine dissonant intervals with near infinite decays to create disorienting soundtracks, or choose perfect/major intervals to generate creative harmonies when jumping around a key signature
