Electro-Harmonix Pico Shimmer Reverb

Electro Harmonix Pico Shimmer – Shimmer Reverb
By combining reverb, modulation, delay, and synthesis, the Pico Shimmer opens up new possibilities for creating completely unique reverb sounds. The Shimmer reverb effect itself is based on Electro Harmonix’s award-winning Oceans Reverb pedals and will give you effects you never thought existed.

The Pico Shimmer features three distinct shimmer modes (Scenes): Intergalactic, Off-World, and Etherdust.

INTERGALACTIC: A classic shimmer effect with polyphonic octaves, reverb, modulation, delay, and compression, complemented by string synthesis. Switch between plate reverb, shimmer, and ethereal strings for cinematic sounds.
OFF-WORLD: A softer and more subdued shimmer with deepened delay modulation. Creates warm, synth-based atmospheres with a distinct vintage character.
ETHERDUST: A glitch-inspired shimmer where the delay time is randomized to create everything from small, short percussive repetitions to rhythmic echo effects.

The Pico Shimmer features a simple user interface where each control has two functions.

VOICE: Morphs between different reverb characters—from plate to shimmer and synth-based textures.

BLEND: Adjusts the balance between the direct signal and the effect signal.

TONE: Controls the amount of treble in the effect signal.

TIME: Sets the decay time, from short reverb to endless reverb

Infinite Reverb: Activated by holding down the footswitch; the reverb continues to ring out as long as the pedal is depressed.

The alternative functions for each control let you adjust the amount of reverb and delay, as well as the depth and speed of the modulation effects

Scene Button: Switches between the three Shimmer modes. Holding down the button activates the alternative functions for each control.
