Keeley Abbey Chamber Verb Reverb Pedal Overview
The famous Abbey studio had 3 echo chambers, with electronic filters, brilliance control, and a naturally ocurring pre-delay of 30ms; the Keeley Abbey Chamber Verb Reverb Pedal incorporates these parameters to replicate the techniques and sound found on a multitude of famous recordings - with the Abbey Chamber Verb, you can use these classic tools to add reverb to your guitar, vocals, or to any element of your recordings or live sound.
…Soft and Warm Vintage Reverb. That’s what we were after here. We want people to recreate some of those classic sounds in a live setting without a DAW or other expensive packages. Guitar players need a plug-and-play chamber reverb that gives them the classic sounds they are used to and want to emulate.
The Pre-Delay is used to match the classic sounds of vintage recordings, going from extremely fast doubling in the reverb to a slapback type of sound; the Pre-Delay of the actual room is a naturally occurring 30ms, and the delay of the tape machine added another 150ms, so that’s the range that we give you.
The Brilliance Control allows you to have the same types of tools to filter and fine tune the reverb, which allows for soft reverbs, deep and sublime reflections, bright and reflective ambience–whatever you chose. You are now the studio engineer to your own sound!
