When the shift button is held down, the top row of knobs adjust delay parameters. The Context can create ghostly reverb effects, slowly sweeping resonances, and at higher modulation settings is a multi-voice granular processor that creates clouds of detuned sound fragments for entirely new reverb sounds. The SST-282 was released in 1978 and used multiple delay taps with modulation to create reverb effects. Grain mode is a granular reverb inspired by the Ursa Major SST-282 Space Station. Of course, delay and dynamics are also available. The modulation is tremolo with adjustable intensity and speed. You can adjust the length of the decay, high and low frequency damping.

It gives you the chirp, drip, and feel of a spring reverb with a slight twist. Instead, we designed a spring reverb algorithm using the techniques and algorithms that were used in 1980’s reverbs, but with a lot more processing power available. The spring reverb is not a model of any specific spring reverb. Reverse reverb fades in louder and brighter over time, giving the impression of playing backwards.

Holding down the shift button adjusts the modulation rate. It gives you a mix of different modulation types from 1980’s and early 90’s reverbs, including chorus modulation, random modulation that keeps the pitch stable, and deep modulated reverbs. The modulation knob changes the amount and character of the internal modulation.

They also has separate low and high damping controls with more range, along with all the other new features. The Room, Hall, Cathedral, Gated, and Plate reverb algorithms are updated versions of the Context version 1 reverbs, but now delay is available in all modes.

Version 2 adds stereo input/output, USB MIDI, fully assignable expression pedal, 3 new modes, delay plus reverb in all modes, separate high and low frequency damping controls, modulation, dynamic reverb, and infinite hold. It has 8 algorithms, including room, hall, cathedral, gated reverb, reverse reverb, plate, spring, and a granular reverb. The Context is a reverb pedal inspired by 1980’s rack mount reverbs.
