- REVERB-Regler: Controls the overall decay time and size of the reverb effect. Turning it clockwise increases the length and spaciousness of the reverb.
- MIX-Knopf: Adjusts the balance between your dry (unaffected) signal and the wet (effected) signal. Turn clockwise for more reverb effect, counter-clockwise for less.
- TONE-Regler: Shapes the tonal character of the reverb. This control allows you to brighten or darken the shimmer effect, from warm and subtle to crisp and cutting.
- SHIMMER Knob: This dedicated control adds an octave-up effect to the reverb tail, creating the signature ethereal, shimmering sound. Increase for a more pronounced shimmer.
- Fußschalter: Engages or disengages the effect. The pedal features true bypass, ensuring your signal remains unaffected when the pedal is off.
