Strymon Blue Sky V2
Strymon's Blue Sky, the pedal that revolutionized compact reverb pedals, has evolved! Delivering the most majestic and lush ambient sounds one could imagine, the second-generation Blue Sky adds significant new features — to give you additional flexibility, power and ease-of-use on stage and in the studio. Adding a 'Shimmer' control, a tone-bending 'Mod' switch, and a new 'Spring' algorithm into the equation — Strymon has somehow made their acclaimed Blue Sky stompbox even better!
Further updates include full MIDI implementation for control over just about every single Blue Sky parameter, a premium analogue JFET input circuit, and a new ARM DSP chip for increased processing power. You can now also control the Blue Sky with an expression pedal or MultiSwitch Plus! So whether you’re a classic spring reverb fan, a studio rack aficionado, or an ambient soundscape creator searching for new sonic textures — all the sounds you are looking for can be found within the Strymon Blue Sky Reverberator V2.
