Just wanted to know. Has anyone managed to find a combination of Reverbs similar to “cloud” on the Bigsky? I’ve still got my board with it on but I’m downsizing and I really want to have a decent option.
Almost tempted to buy one of the plugins and work it via USB. But surely someone has something decent!
worked on this for a while yesterday based on some videos I saw of different settings with the Strymon Cloud verb on the Big Sky. Looks like it covers a lot of ground and has a pretty wide range of capabilities.
Not sure exactly which fx the original poster is looking for.
I’ll upload once I get all the levels matched. So far I’m combining several fx into the Mind Verb (split into phase-inverted parallel lanes for a bonus Bloom verb option) and using scenes for the different settings I’ve seen in video demos
Just stared to check out later! Currently running my BigSky in the FX Loop of the QC specifically because of settings like Bloom and Cloud. Excited to compare! Thanks for diving into it!
You can at least get in the same ballpark by using a few QC reverbs in serial. Use something like plate lush or mind hall with a short decay and pre delay, and then follow it with another block of plate lush or modulated. Then in that block, crank the modulation, crank the reverb duration, and make the pre delay longer. The idea is to have the first short reverb “bloom” into the 2nd longer reverb.
And I see what you did - I realised what I had been missing was the cutting through of what I was playing - might be because I spent so much time dialing the wet and decay and forgot about the dry signal.
Thanks very much.
Had so much fun I just made a version that adds a micropitch Lane.
Couldn’t find a video on the Stratosphere effect, unless you meant the Plugin.
Wow - the Bloom sounds awesome! Thank you! I had the big sky which I ended up selling a while back, and from my recollection this covers most of the ground!
Finally got around to trying these. Really excellent work. I A/B’ed these to my BigSky and they sound really great. I’m not considering kicking my BigSky in favor of something more… unique. Thanks for the presets!
