Source Audio SA 264 One Series Encounter Ambient Delay Reverb

The Encounter is more than just a combination delay and reverb pedal – it is a fully loaded vessel of atmospheric discovery, designed to explore swirling celestial tones and deeply immersive soundscapes. Inspired by Source Audio's now-legendary Collider Delay + Reverb, the Encounter takes things further with a wide-ranging collection of otherworldly and never-before-heard effects.

Dual Effects Power

All six delay and six reverb engines can be used individually or paired together – including dual delay or dual reverb combinations. With full MIDI functionality and stereo inputs/outputs, the Encounter offers unmatched flexibility. Routing options include series, parallel, or split stereo. Each footswitch engages or disengages its own effect, essentially giving you the power of two pedals in one compact unit.

Unique Sound Engines

The Encounter’s effect collection blends brand-new algorithms with modernized favorites from Source Audio’s award-winning Ventris Dual Reverb and Nemesis Delay.

• New Engines:
  • Hypersphere Reverb – evokes reverberations from an ever-expanding room free of walls, ceiling, or floor.
  • Kaleidoscope Delay – a cascading, harp-like effect.
  • Shimmers – a lush dual-pitched shimmer effect.
• Enhanced Classics:
  • Reverse, Lo-Fi, and Swell reverbs with expanded parameter control.
  • Helix, Drum Echo, and Resonant delays reimagined with deeper creative possibilities.

Creative Potential

The Encounter is not just about stacking reverb and delay – it’s a gateway to limitless sonic exploration. From ambient textures and cinematic swells to experimental soundscapes, this pedal unlocks entirely new dimensions for your music.
