Source Audio Collider Delay + Reverb

www.sourceaudi...
reverb.grsm.io...
The Source Audio Collider smashes two of their most popular effects, The Ventris Dual Delay and Nemesis Delay into one, dual DSP pedal. Rather than fill the Collider with hidden features that require an app, the Collider is gives you everything you need with the straight forward interface of the One Series that provides 5 Delay on the Left, and 7 Reverbs on the right, with shared knobs thanks to a handy toggle switch. Sound quality and functionality are top notch, with stereo ins and outs, midi, presets, and expression control or other Source audio control via rear port. Plus the two footswitches still get you tap tempo with 3 divisions and reverb hold or freeze for endless soundscapes.
Whether it’s classic slapback echo and True Spring reverb, reverse delay and ethereal spaces or a mix of vintage and modern, the Collider can be tweaked beyond the standard controls with the help of mode specific Tone and Control 1&2 knobs. For instance, you can adjust the repeat tone and modulation rate and depth of an analog delay or the shimmer reverb’s crossfade time and regeneration. Lastly, you have the power to enable trails or true bypass and choose series or parallel routing for these two versatile, studio quality effects.

The enormous amount of music that exists in this man’s head is truly astounding. Just learning all the functions of countless pedals is jaw dropping. Andy could had been a brain surgeon or an Astro physicist. Bravo Andy, keep up the amazing work.

[@SeanZetterlund]

wow, they hit a home run on this one. this might be the ultimate reverb/delay combo pedal.

[@johnmellor3048]

Seriously - I'd rather listen to Andy's demos than any of the popular music out there these days. Really great stuff!

[@beelbrother1648]

I have Source Audio’s Ventris and it is hands down the best reverb out there.

[@beachcomber4141]

That last tune Andy played is a real beauty!! Very nice

[@JJSurma]

This seems like a great pedal but tbh sometimes I just watch these to hear you play regardless of the effect. Man... Andy, you are loved. Keep rockin bro!

[@robertstapleton3598]

A great demo that shows off the variety of sounds this pedal can get.

[@jancreighton]

such tasteful playing... inspiring in and of itself... and demonstrates the pedal to great effect

[@ryanwhitley5427]

[@barrettisgold]

07:16 Yes Andy! Wonderful playing and sound. Had my headphones on 👌

[@bryanclarke1927]

Think this one could end up on a lot of boards. Seriously good sounds on headphones yet simple to use. Nice demo from Andy too. Creative sounds here.

[@wyldmanwgrable]

I quit using effects when I sold my ART SGX in 1992. But then I saw some videos from Pro guitar shop (Andy) about a decade ago and I was back on board (pun intended). Really appreciate your work Andy, helps me a ton no matter what band I’m playing in.

[@joelspaulding5964]

Best demo of the Collider, hands down. This should be the first video people see for the Collider. If this weren't already my next pedal or if I were waffling, this would seal the deal. Sub'd

Great Demo, Andy! Does the spring revenue have that same drip? Also can you access the missing presets from the other pedals in the software? Thanks in advance!

[@JJukstratfan]

I was going to buy a Source Audio Nemesis and Ventris for a small build I want to use. This’ll be perfect instead. Andy I own a Suhr Classic S Metallic like yours, but mine is Lake Placid Blue. What colour is yours? Sherwood Green Metallic or Ocean Turquoise Metallic?

[@AndyDemos]

[@JJukstratfan]

Thank you Andy.

[@philosdata]

This is "THE" compact delay+reverb pedal. Even if I move to more complex setups (like an Eventide H90) I will maintain it to a "B" compact pedalboard. Fantastic real state economy and sound quality!

[@sebastianarancibia2870]

hey man thanks for the review!! i was thinking about this pedal and now i really confirmed it sounds great! amazing pedal

[@Xn4W]

Wow this is an incredible pedal. I have a GFI Specular Tempus, probably the best competitor to this pedal. I was thinking about getting a 2nd GFI Specular Tempus, but now I want this. The possibilities will be endless with a Collider -> GFI Specular Tempus, imagine that.

[@Micah_s]

The GFI is such a great pedal too!!

[@Xn4W]

@@Micah_s most definitely. The size, top mounted I/O, large screen, amazing reverb/delay algorithms, firmware updates to add more algorithms, MIDI, FX loop, infinite auto swell mode, and 32 presets. The only 2 issues with it is = 1 DSP and no MIDI thru, just MIDI in which means you need to place it last in MIDI chain or use a MIDI splitter. Collider cons = no screen to tell you the tempo, only 4 presets, side mounted I/O, slightly larger, no FX loop and not as many algorithms as GFI. So having both will give you the best of both worlds and 4 delay+reverb combinations! If you stick the Collider in the GFI's FX loop, it'll be ambient esoteric stereo heaven! Can't wait to sell my outdated TC Nova Delay and buy a Collider.

[@patrickr6505]

@@Xn4W But you can put the Collider into your amps effects loop right?

[@joelspaulding5964]

That opening tune gave echoes (sorry) of Cutting Crew. Brilliant playing and phenomenal 80's tones . Oh, and a Collider will be arriving within 5 days. You should get a commission.😉

[@charlarge3555]

Great review. Where in the chain does this pedal live? Reverb is last, yes? If I already have a delay, would this pedal be last?

[@adajay9257]

You can choose which you want last. You can run delay into reverb, or reverb into delay, or you can run them parallel. There is no “the right way”, whatever gives you the sound that you want. By the way, you can also do all of these setups I mentioned on the Collider itself (without using an dedicated delay pedal). This is an amazing pedal.

[@JamesDGardner]

Is there ANY difference between the true spring pedal and this spring reverb the collider has?

[@AndyDemos]

It’s been a while since I compared but the “True Spring” algorithms are the same between the two pedals. However there are two more spring algorithms (Outboard and Tank) in the True pedal and it includes tremolo. So, more spring options in the True Spring pedal. Good question!

[@JamesDGardner]

@@AndyDemos Thank you for taking the time to reply!

[@baseboardmatt]

Anybody want to buy my Volante and True Spring?

[@jayditzer2082]

How much for the Volante?

[@VelvetAirGuitar]

The first track reminds me of Rome Void's "A girl in trouble"?

[@cheenu711]

A lot of people think that this is expensive. Tbh if you want a reverb pedal and a delay pedal that you'll not throw away for upgrading you'll probably spend the amount equal to collider's cost. Why not just get this and call it a day. This is the industry standard sound.

[@cheenu711]

Or you can buy a zoom multi fx :3

[@vibratrem]

You sound awesome. really creative.

[@aaronbolton]

where were you when you first heard Andy NOT say, “with Pro Guitar Shop”

[@BetonBenni]

This one or the GFI Specular Tempus?

[@ransombaggins9301]

I'm guessing this is superior to the Fender Reflecting Pool, but I'd love to see a comparison demonstrating what you get for the extra money, and what you give up with the Fender. Also, AWESOME review as always!

[@kjetilalexandersaltnes8643]

Can this pedal do circular delay?

[@jesusfreakster101]

Purchased this to replace modified tc nova delay and EHX Cathedral, much improved upgrade - though both of those pedals had merit. I am looking for midi remote now - allows expansion in presets - and it fixes this pedals only fault with is the location of the foot switches too closely to the knobs

[@george25199]

can this be run in a wet dry set up?With out the aby boxes?

[@mattgilbert7347]

Yes! It has analog dry-thru (unlike the Nemesis delay and earlier One Series pedals). You can use two amps w/your ABY for stereo or wet/dry, or add a third amp for W/D/W. I have a Nemesis, Gemini, and Vertigo and while i really love the sounds, it's mono, stereo, but no W/D. No dry-thru. I wish they'd made those other pedals with a dry-thru path...

[@ancientteenager7880]

Avalanche Run has a way better reverse, probably up there with the Danelectro Backtalk and EHX MM Hazarai as the three modern classics of reverse reverb- plus the obvious sonic differences. there is objectively more variation but it’s all a sonic color palette 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@brauliozuniga8638]

Can Delay and Reverb be used at the same time?

[@AndyDemos]

Yes, that’s the whole idea with this pedal (dual engine). Any example you see with both Green and Red LEDs on is Delay + Reverb.

he man : Source audio Collider : two completely independent 56-bit signal processors. Stop bitching.

[@HerrSpuzzmacher]

Hmm. It’s 2021 i’m still using a reverb unit operating at... 18bit. I figured the longer i’d wait to upgrade, the better the quality would be when i did. Aside from being closer to 8-bit than 56, i’m a bit surprised that in all this time there are so many fx pedals (even by quality builders like keeley), and give you a stereo output but only a mono in. Just creates forks & dead ends all over my plans. Gonna try a SA instead.

[@mattgilbert7347]

Maybe it's my cheap phone and headphones but it sounded kinda harsh and metallic.

[@ofthe7552]

Love your playing but that demo was useless

[@AndyDemos]

3 comments you’ve left here. If you don’t like it, move on. To demo the sounds of reverb and delay, sometime I play with them wetter than normal so you can hear the nuances/tone of these modes.

[@ofthe7552]

I've been watching reverb delay combo demos since this morning and they all suck. Who tf plays with all their effects full wet? We get it. Its drippy and ambient. Now turn the blend down and let me here how much people would use it.

[@ofthe7552]

And shimmer reverb never sounded good. Sounds like some artificial cheesy synth. Do people actually use that?
