Source Audio Encounter Ambient Delay/Reverb Effects Pedal - Black

Combining six delay and six reverb engines, it lets you stack, blend, or split effects in series, parallel, or stereo for lush, three-dimensional sound design. Each engine—from crystalline digital repeats to blooming, infinite reverbs—has its own personality, giving you everything from cinematic ambience to experimental soundscapes. With dual footswitches for independent control, stereo I/O, and full MIDI integration, the Encounter functions like two studio-grade pedals in one. Compact yet powerful, it’s built for guitarists, producers, and sonic explorers ready to push delay and reverb beyond the familiar into something deeply inspiring.

Innovative Delay and Reverb Engines for Sonic Discovery
