Keeley Parallax Spatial Generator Reverb + Delay Pedal

Keeley Parallax Spatial Generator Reverb and Delay Pedal.  

If you have ever checked out the Keeley Caverns Pedals then you already love it and own it because it's incredible.  But, if you ever felt that you wanted a different collection of reverbs, or a pedal that was more blue than white, then you would do well to check out the Parallax.  It is the same two-sided design as the Caverns and the Delays are the same in both pedals.  The Parallax offeres 3 new modes on the Reverb side, includiing a Hall Reverb with an ascending Octave Shimmer, Reverse Reverb, and Soft Focus Reverb (with its own dual delays built into it).  Using the soft focus mode along with the dedicated delay effect creates some of the most dense ambience that is sure to attract the attention of fellow guitar nerds during sound check.

Reverb Modes:

• Hall: Hall reverb with an octave up. The output of the reverb is fed into an octave up, which then feeds back into the input loop of the reverb, creating and infinitely ascending octave feedback loop.  The Depth Knob will control how noticable the octave pitch effect is.
  
  
• Reverse: A series of delayed swells that play back at increasing volumes to emmulate a reverse effect.  The Decay knob choses 1 of 8 fixed delay times ranging from 150ms to half of a second. In this mode the Depth knob controls an envelope trigered vibrato effect which emmulates a pushed-in vibrato bar which releases during the notes attack.
  
  
• Soft Focus: This mode is an ambient Reverb followed by two delays (fixed times of 250ms and 350ms), which is then followed by a 4 voice Chorus (fixed rate). Decay knob controls the legnth ofthe reverb as well as the feedback of the 2 delays.  The depth knob contols the depth of all 4 voices on the chorus.

• Off: No modulation
• Light: Light Modulation
• Deep: (Can you guess it?)

(This is the same analog tape delay effect found on the Keeley Caverns V2, which comes form their Magnetic Echo circuit.  The modulation effect emmulates the wow and flutter of tape echo)

Well, Keeley has done it again...

The Parallax offers the delay side of the legendary Caverns paired with unique Shoegaze inspired reverbs of the Realizer in one pedalboard friendly enclosure. On one side of the Parallax, analog-style modulated delays create a soft bed of warm repeats, while the other side builds reverse-setting vibrato swirls (great for those who don’t have a vibrato arm on their guitar) to ambient modulations to form perfect pools of reverb reflection. When both sides are paired together, the Parallax offers the perfect end-of-pedalboard solution for Shoegaze, Ambient, and Experimental tone seekers.
