we’re shoegaze guitarists and dreamgazer is our dream reverse reverb pedal we made with everything that we always looked for but could never find. so what makes dreamgazer the best reverse reverb pedal we've ever played? let's dive in…
first of all, dreamgazer is the only guitar pedal we've ever found with multiple reverse reverb modes in one pedal.
reverse
the shoegaze reverse reverb designed for shoegaze glide guitar. perfectly nostalgic & lofi.
blossom
maybe, just maybe, our favourite. the reverse reverb of our dreams. a rising envelope blossoms into an ethereal encompassing reverb. it sounds ethereal when adding distortion. the pinnacle effect for shoegazing.
shallower
shallower is an nostalgic ambient forward reverb perfect for dream pop guitar. it’s the final mode making dreamgazer so well-rounded.
but here's what changed everything...
dreamgazer fixes a problem shoegazers have dealt with for decades.
if you've played reverse reverb, you know exactly what i mean. the excess latency, the frustrating lag, the timing issues.. if you know, you know.
dreamgazer answers the question we've got about a million times. 'how do you play in time with reverse reverb?'
miraculously, each of dreamgazer's reverse reverbs has adjustable timing for playing in time. finally. we have never found this anywhere else.
we needed it for our shoegaze bands violet oscillation & abstract in sound so it had to be done. when dreaming up dreamgazer, it was our priority.
you can use the sample rate control to adjust the time & overall essence of the effect. truly groundbreaking. can't go without it.
wait, it gets better?!
yeah, it definitely does.
lofi 90s sound
dreamgazer is truly lofi, made with vintage engineering at 12 bit, reminiscent of the rack units that shaped the sound of 90s shoegaze bands with long lost vintage warmth & character.
soft nostalgia
soft nostalgia is a dreamy lofi multi-voiced modulation effect to blend in with dreamgazer's ethereal reverbs for immersive modulated reverb. instant dream pop guitar tone.
sample rate
dreamgazer’s lofi sample rate shapes a hazy sonic aesthetic by setting how lofi the pedal is. lowering this control also slows down the whole effect.
a shoegaze secret?
adjust ‘sample rate’ while sound is playing for dreamy swirls.
made by shoegaze bands
every single detail about dreamgazer was curated to our specifications for what we wanted when making music in our shoegaze bands violet oscillation & abstract in sound. maneco labs is our engineer friend who builds each of our guitar pedals. he has extensive expertise, having made pedals since the 90s. we chose him for his attention to detail, top notch build quality & his ability to bring our ideas to life with us.
