Hello, I’ve had my Cathedral for nearly a year now. I really like it. I could however use some suggestions for settings! Especially for reverse. I’m really wanting to make an atmospheric intro to a song. Unfortunately each time it comes out lack-luster. How would I get a sound along the lines of this… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9E80yJcRqA&feature=related ? I have a DL-4, tremelo and POG2 to throw in the mix as well. Any suggestions? Greatly appreciated!

nice clip.
i built my rig to create this type of stuff. there’s an obvious lack of attack when he strums, so this could be reverse reverb almost completely wet, delay twisted up, with a dab of feedback to keep the reverb repeating into the distance. it sounds like you could use your DL4 to create the ambient loop, and octave up your pog2 (slow attack) for that high lead. he’s definitely got some chorus (you could use pog2 detune) in there as well.
hell, if you wanna spice that up, add a trailing delay, perhaps a normal reverb on top of that, and tremolo it up for some shimmers. very lite phasers work in these cases pretty well too, especially something that can be controlled via expression pedal.
think about reverse delay as well. sometimes people try to recreate the “kevin shields effect” and do not consider that a lot of those chords merging together can be accomplished with reverse + trailing delay as well.
the first thing i did when i got my cathedral is i went to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJ6kzw3x510 and put all those settings in for mine because i liked the way they sounded. since then, i tweaked each one to the specific way i like. you might like that reverse
