Electro-Harmonix Oceans 12

Dual Stereo Reverb

A reverb processing machine! The EHX Oceans 12 is the big brother of the Oceans 11, offering even more reverbs and functionality. It features 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 to alter the stereo image, a Lo-fi Control, an infinite damping control, and an input for external expression, as well as a 3-button footswitch control. A Tails switch allows you to choose whether the reverb effect naturally fades out or stops immediately when the pedal is set to bypass. In most settings, the pedal is also capable of producing infinite reverb that can be layered with another reverb effect. The reverbs of the Oceans 12 are:

• ROOM - two modes: reverb 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 during 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 the 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.
