SOURCE AUDIO / SA264 ENCOUNTER Ambient Delay+Reverb

<> An encounter with an unknown delay + reverb pedal focused on ""ambient"" effects

Unlike dual pedals that combine delay and reverb in a single package, this ""ambience machine"" allows you to explore spectacular, time-bending effects.

SOURCE AUDIO's Delay + Reverb pedals are highly sought-after. While COLLIDER offers standard spatial effects, ENCOUNTER offers unique and imaginative ""ambient"" effects. Inheriting the legacy of NEMESIS and VENTRIS, ENCOUNTER enables the creation of infinitely expanding sonic spaces not possible with COLLIDER alone.

■FEATURES
12 Effect Engines:
Equipped with six delay engines and six reverb engines. The dual DSP design allows you to use delay and reverb simultaneously, as well as delay + delay or reverb + reverb combinations. This delivers the ultimate ambient experience and a nearly limitless number of effect combinations.

128 Preset Memory:
Store 8 presets accessible via pedal control and 128 presets available via MIDI PC messages.

Stereo I/O:
Create a rich, spacious sound with stereo input and output.

ADT (Analog Dry Thru):
Maintains your instrument's 100% pure analog (dry) signal in parallel with the pedal's effect (wet) signal.

Universal Bypass?:
Select a high-quality signal relay for true bypass or soft bypass, or a buffered analog bypass.

Full MIDI Support:
Connect to a MIDI controller via the 5-Pin DIN MIDI In & Thru or USB Mini port to access up to 128 presets via MIDI PC messages and control various parameters via MIDI CC messages.

USB-Mini B Port:
Connect to Neuro 3 (Desktop Editor/Mobile App) for detailed parameter editing and pedal firmware updates. /p>

Neuro Community Preset Library:
Try out sounds from the extensive preset collection created by the SOURCE AUDIO team and the ever-expanding Neuro Community and instantly access great tones.

External Expression Control:
Connect an expression pedal (TRS / Tip: Hot) and assign expression control to any parameter.

Compact Design:
The extruded anodized aluminum housing is slim and space-saving, and can withstand harsh environments.

■EFFECT ENGINE
Includes a total of 12 carefully selected ""ambient"" effects, including six delay engines and six reverb engines. In addition to Delay + Reverb, you can combine your favorite effect engines with Delay + Delay, Reverb + Reverb, and Reverb + Delay, and flexibly route them in series/parallel, mono, or stereo.

Create fantastical sounds with layers of synthesizer-like sustained and repeated tones without building a large-scale system.

■Neuro 3 (Desktop / Mobile App)
Connecting to Neuro 3 allows you to fine-tune parameters that are not accessible on the pedal itself, unlocking even more functionality.

The ENCOUNTER can store up to 128 presets internally. Factory presets uploaded to the Neuro Community and user presets created by ENCOUNTER users worldwide can also be downloaded to the pedal.

The newly implemented SoundCheck feature allows you to audition presets on the Neuro 3 without needing an actual instrument or pedal. Use the DAW-inspired Neuro 3 Editor to create custom ENCOUNTER presets, then write them to the pedal, save them to your private library on the cloud, or share them with the Neuro Community.

The Neuro 3 Mobile App is available as a free download from the App Store (iOS) and Google Play (Android). The Neuro 3 Desktop Editor (Mac/Windows) can be downloaded from the download page.
