Got in first like a young Geoff Hurst. 

£279 preorder

Just watched a few demos and it genuinely sounds incredible. 

To have an exp input as well as midi capability at this size and form factor is really impressive. 

I’ll be grabbing one of these to play with…

….once they start showing up used!

For those wondering, there's already a video:

TL;DR - Just get a Big Sky. I had one until recently. Made me smell of joss sticks.

I imagine a large portion of the target market already has one!

I'm curious where the demand is for all these ambient reverb pedals? While I love a bit of Hammock etc, isn't it still a bit of a niche sound? I find it's an effect I think I want/need but when I get it, I really don't use it as much as I expected.

Aren’t they used for praisin’ the lord music in the USofA?

I own a BigSky but I only use it on my synths.

As I hate reverb on my guitar, no idea why, just really do not like it on my own guitar tone. I'm fine with it on other players, but for some reason detest it on my own playing.

Genius business from Strymon. I have a feeling this isn’t aimed at your Nightsky/Zoia/Microcosm ambient users, this is like a modular add on for your Flint or Blue Sky, when you don’t want the hassle of a Big Sky and have limited space for a niche sound you might not use 24/7. Enter this form factor. Gives you that ambient algorithm in a small box with 5 controls on it. They’ll sell bucket loads of these. 

I can see a lot of these coming, maybe we’ll see a DMM/Analog algo a la Brigadier V2 in this format.

I reckon there's a lot of bedroom knob twiddlers. You can make a impressive sonic impression without a band

I like the form factor

Good form factor and the only algorithm I really genuinely thought was interesting from the big boys. Will probably snag a secondhand one at some point.

Yeh, seems unlikely that this is it, just the first of a series.

In one of the videos they allude to the fact that more pedals in this form factor are coming.

Ah. It’s the Bladerunner pedal.
