Electro-Harmonix introduces the Oceans 11, a compact pedal with advanced functionality that features 11 reverb styles ranging from essential to exotic. Watch Bill Ruppert’s guided tour of this hot new pedal.
Watch the demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkQCetlEUSg
The Oceans 11’s reverbs are:
1. HALL – reverb characteristic of a grand concert hall
2. SPRING – pays homage to vintage Fender® tube reverbs
3. PLATE – a lush plate reverb
4. REVRS – emulates the reverse reverb effect created in studios where a note’s reverb fades-in backwards
5. ECHO – reverb plus delay, a digital delay feeds into the Plate reverb
6. TREM – reverb plus tremolo applied to both the wet and dry mix of a Hall reverb
7. MOD – modulated reverb, a combination of various modulations creates rich reverb tails
8. DYNA – three dynamic reverb algorithms: swell, gate and duck
9. AUTO-INF – Auto infinite reverb that triggers a reverb wash for each note or chord. When a new one is struck, the previously resounding reverb wash crossfades to the new one
10. SHIM – Shimmer generates a rich octave-shifted reverb wash
11. POLY – Polyphonic reverb, two configurable bi-directional pitch shifts

Another must-have.
Is this pedal like the Canyon, in that if the Tails switch is OFF the pedal is true bypass? Thanks.
Another awesome release. Thanks guys!
The Oceans 11 is essentially a Canyon delay with delay algorithms swapped out for reverb algorithms. Neither one has what is normally referred to as “true bypass.” Both of them have what is usually referred to as “digital bypass.” The circuit stays engaged the entire time to sense the footswitch. Any pedal with a “soft” switch, which is a button really, as opposed to one that clicks, is almost always a digital bypass rather than a “true” bypass that just connects the input directly to the output.
The internal Tails switch works the same way on both pedals. With tails on, the tails (echos, trails, tails) will continue and trail off naturally when you step on the switch to bypass the effect. Whith tails off, the tails (echos, trails) cut off immediately.
