Source Audio Encounter Ambient Delay + Reverb

Source Audio Encounter Ambient Delay + Reverb is a stereo delay and reverb for swirling celestial tones and deeply immersive soundscapes.

At the heart of the pedal are six delay and six reverb engines that can be used individually or combined in pairs — this includes dual delay and dual reverb setups. Users can route dual effect combinations in series, parallel, or split stereo, with independent footswitch control for each engine, offering the power of two pedals in one easy-to-navigate enclosure.

Stereo ins and outs, full MIDI implementation, 8 onboard preset slots (128 presets with MIDI), external expression control, and seamless integration with Source Audio’s free Neuro 3 editing software for iOS, Android, macOS, and Windows further elevate the pedal’s flexibility and creative potential.

The pedal’s effects collection features brand-new engines including Hypersphere, a gravity-defying ambient reverb inspired by infinite spatial reflections, Kaleidoscope, a cascading, harp-like delay effect, and Shimmers, a rich, dual-pitched shimmer reverb designed for lush harmonic layering.

Modernized favorites from our acclaimed Ventris Dual Reverb and Nemesis Delay ADT also make a return — Reverse, Lo-Fi, Trem Verb, and Swell reverbs, along with Helix, Drum Echo, Noise Tape (inspired by the Roland Space Echo) and Resonant delays — all reimagined with expanded parameter control. The pedal is powered by a standard 9 volts power supply (not included).
