Electro-Harmonix Oceans 12

Dual Stereo Reverb

A reverb processing machine! The EHX Oceans 12 is the big brother of the Oceans 11, featuring even more reverbs and functionality. It has two simultaneous, independent stereo reverb engines, series and parallel control for the dual reverbs, 24 presets, and expanded I/Os for stereo in/out or mono send/return with pre- and post-reverb options. The pedal also includes a new Tide Control for altering the stereo image, a Lo-fi Control, an infinite damping control, and an input for an external expression pedal, along with a 3-button footswitch control. A Tails switch allows you to choose whether the reverb effect naturally decays or stops immediately when the pedal is switched to bypass. In most settings, the pedal can also produce infinite reverb that can be layered with another reverb effect. The reverbs of the Oceans 12 are:

• ROOM - two modes: hall algorithms modeled after a lively room and a spacious concert hall
• SPRING - two modes: vintage 1962 Fender 6G15 tube spring reverb emulation and the spring reverb algorithm from the EHX Holy Grail
• PLATE - two modes: two emulations of the smooth, metallic plate reverb commonly used in high-end recording studios in the 1960s and 70s
• REVERSE - two modes: a reverse reverb effect as well as true reverse echoes
• ECHO - three modes: a digital delay with various echo rhythms that blend into a plate reverb
• TREM - three modes: a classic, periodic volume envelope with different shapes applied to both the wet and dry mix of a reverb
• MOD - three modes: combinations of chorus and flange reverb that create a rich reverb tail
• DYNA - three dynamic, experimental reverb algorithms: Swell, Gate, and Duck
• AUTO-INF - three.
