=======================
Time-Warped Reverberator.
Create vast soundscapes with just a few notes from your instrument. Apply mind-bending pitch and harmonic manipulation to your reverb tails, with synth-like filter sweeps. Enter a world of new sounds that blow away the boundaries of what is possible with reverb. With pioneers and adventurous sonic explorers in mind we created a reverb pedal that can go where none have gone before.
Reverberant Synthesis Machine.
NightSky is a reverberant synthesis workstation, and a powerful, hands-on experimental sound design platform. NightSky gives you real-time continuous control of reverb pitch/processing rate/core size, harmonics, and even a synth-like resonant filter with multiple modulation waveshapes, plus a step sequencer with variable glide. You haven’t heard a pedal like this before.

At last, with a synth. Thank you Strymon & Stephen.

[@davidmckelvey2601]

I can tell film composers are going to love this pedal.

[@thetylersherman]

Man that SV1 sounds incredible, and the NightSky is a perfect pairing for it.

[@Charlyaraya]

Never paid attention how good the SV1 actually sounds

[@my4trackmachine]

This sounds so good. Also, Noir et blanc vie is the man. Great person to get to demo your gear.

[@AvianBreak]

A really great demo! The pedal has a lot of versatility.

[@IamCarlFree]

I was waiting for a video with synths!! I like!

[@robertsyrett1992]

Love the modular demo, great stuff!

[@555atU]

Awesome demo!

[@sebp400]

I never realized how good of a keyboard player he is. love the sound also.

[@InstantlyDistant]

Lovely demo, thanks

[@haddongaming9946]

4:47 is so pretty, i love this thing on piano. i’m definitely going to pick this up whenever i get the money

[@JohnLRice]

Thanks Noir, nice demo! :-)

[@WiredSpaceWizard]

Wow! Fantastic!

[@gesslr]

Well done. Thanks.

[@christopherecatalano]

I have yet to see a poor demo of this device. Amazing guitar and keyboards and I am sure whatever you plug into it. Lovely keyboard and synth stuff here...a lot to learn from your fantastic musical ideas. I will be watching this a few times...

[@ztkspace5885]

Great demo bud.

[@tuftyindigo]

The main thing I liked about this video was seeing the interval knob used smoothly - I somehow got the impression from previous videos that it only had the marked positions. I was really confused about why you'd have a 2nd but not a 3rd!

[@midlander4]

Beautiful

[@gadd1111]

This is really excellent. I've just bought the night sky and hope to use it with my XD and microcosm

[@doctorvortex979]

Fantastic🌌

[@Transterra55]

Very Cool!

[@mulkytool]

that surface you're playing on is also beautiful

[@9877joseph]

Yeah, its like dragon scales!

[@rdean150]

Wow thank you for this. At first I was considering this as a potential companion for Volante, to potentially modernize the still-unbeatable Big sky + Timeline duo. But wow this is such a wild effect entirely on its own, I wonder if trying to use it after a multitap delay might be too much madness... I Hmm... guess there's only one way to find out... for science...

[@SoundsAndGear]

Great video!

[@strymon]

Thanks :)

[@seppoinnanen5577]

Another great pedal from Strymon for sure, but maybe it sounds a bit like separate effect in many of these examples. I hope to hear more demos soon, thanks

[@norjects7495]

my vintage korg poly 61 (with its one output) is completely transformed. It feels more like parallel processing live rather than just swamping something in reverb, if that makes any sense. omg sounds so rich

[@Space_pulse]

Yes. I envy that level of detail this pedal has, especially when I use my BAM. I love the BAM’s tone, and the Hall can feel kinda hi-fi sometimes, but it does not have that level of detail in the space and modulation. It’s definitely a swamper. Lol.

[@josephwright5921]

Like having Brian Eno and Daniel Lanois assist you in the studio . . .

[@1_of_4]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@lX-NDR]

this pedal is sexy! for now i use my mooer ocean but will get one of these too

[@kiickinballistics]

4:28 just says Moon Safari to me. What a magical union.

[@Pheonix0114]

I really seems more like a companion instrument than a reverb half the time, a little weird buddy that plays with you.

[@dakotahrivers6640]

Question, does the pedal convert do an entire ADC signal or is some of the original signal left unprocessed? Just wondering how much it would affect the analog signal path from my synth

[@strymon]

The dry signal is never processed, and a copy of the dry signal is what is used to process and create the wet signal :)

[@dakotahrivers6640]

@@strymon ah beautiful

[@Robert_Babicz]

waiting to put my hand on this ...

[@shinokto3972]

how you conect the nightsky with the eurorack? are they on the same level

[@strymon]

NightSky cannot accept eurorack signal level. You'll need something like our AA.1 to lower the signal level to line/instrument level before feeding it to NightSky.

[@christophertodman]

tasteful beautiful and weird...the perfect trifecta

[@apache5098]

0:06 please name of song I love this melody pleeease….

[@mrcgeraldes]

What presets are these?

[@NeilGuise]

Any thoughts on a plug-in that has similar functionality or a similar philosophy?

[@strymon]

Hi Neil, We don't discuss what is or isn't in the works, but it helps us to hear what you might be interested in :) Thanks!

[@hovercat26]

Try Valhalla supermassive for that in-between delay and reverb sound. It’s free!

[@lockyp204]

Hmm I have a modular and play a bit of guitar. This or the Magneto- or both 🤣 What has more modulation?

[@strymon]

Both very different pedals :) if you want modulation overall something like the Mobius would probably be better. If not, go for both!

[@midierror]

Sounds great! I'm looking for anyone with one of these to try my Max4Live editor. HMU if you have both - you'll get a free copy say in the final design

[@fromustocolombia]

Eurorack please and thank you

[@cornerliston]

Good to see, thanks. It sounds a bit “ringy” on some sounds-but you'll get that also from high end reverbs on certain sounds. Maybe it's just some harmonic content that get exaggerated when run through the unit. Would it be fair to compare this as a hardware version of Soundtoys' Crystallizer? (Also, sorry, shouldn't this be tagged as sponsored? Having the logo on the end seems like it.) : )

[@urmumsbaps]

Why would they tag their own video for their own product as sponsored

[@cornerliston]

@@urmumsbaps True that! My mistake. I thought it was a NBV video I was watching but he was just the endorsed host. My apology.

[@TheOneMonk]

I really appreciate the synth demo! I dont know, however, what this pedal is about. It certainly does things but what exactly? I like my Strymons but this gets a pass.

[@josephwright5921]

It does heavily modulated reverbs with analog style filters, pitch shifters, tremolos, etc . . . It can everything from beautiful to very strange, from what I have heard. Every demo seems to show a different side of this thing.

[@andycarrillo48]

Is the jdxa worth a buy.

[@denverm4x]

3:35 is very Battles

[@ufosigma]

I have the pedal, it's perfect.

[@errorkit]

not my cup of tea - gonna try the blackhole - need sth less crazy 🥴 loved the pro6 playing in the intro 🔥👍

[@MeAlexSenna]

I love my BigSky, I though this would be a “must buy” but I can see a very limited use of the nightsky in my production. Zero to be precise. But if you don’t know the bigsky this pedal could be for you.

[@tompoynton]

This is a great pedal obviously but to me it would make more sense as a Eurorack module

[@mk1st]

I'm sure Behringer will oblige:-)

[@JxhnNichxlls]

Whoops we got a starlab because of this lol

[@HotelPools]

First P6 patch is butter

[@HotelPools]

Neeed it

[@miguelangelarbita5293]

I expected a product with better performance, the bigsky is the best reverb on the market.

[@TheFarout69]

I usually hate keyboard demos because the origin sound could be anything. Guitar stuff makes sense. I know what that is. That said, this is a good vid for this strange reverbisizer. Still- I'm thinking guitar... Maybe. WTH is it? Best guitar synth ever?

[@-........]

too much reverb was used here imho. not knocking the pedal but why would you want to sound like this 5:00.

[@__teles__]

I hate it. Eventide Space or nothing.
