New Electro-Harmonix Ambience Pedal

EHX introduces the Oceans Abyss Advanced Reverb Laboratory   16-May-25

Electro-Harmonix has introduced the Oceans Abyss Advanced Reverb Laboratory, which they describe as an ambience powerhouse. The pedal is centered around dual reverb engines that are independently programmable with full-stereo algorithms including Hall, Spring, Shimmer and more. EHX says that you can place these reverbs into a configurable signal path with additional FX blocks like Delay, Chorus, Tremolo, or Bit Crusher for a completely customized sound building experience.
