Red Panda Context 2 Reverb Pedal

The Context is a reverb pedal inspired by 1980’s rack mount reverbs. It has 8 algorithms, including room, hall, cathedral, gated reverb, reverse reverb, plate, spring, and a granular reverb. Each algorithm features separate high and low frequency damping controls, pre-delay, modulation, dynamics (duck/expand), and infinite hold. In addition, delay is always available, along with tremolo in spring mode. The modulation knob changes the amount and character of the internal reverb modulation, specific to each algorithm. 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. Holding down the shift button adjusts the modulation rate.

Key Features

• ROOM - fast buildup, good for thickening sounds
• HALL - slower buildup with longer initial delay
• CATH(edral) - emulates a large, reflective space
• GATE(d) - gated reverb with non-linear decay
• REV(erse) - reverse reverb
• PLATE - bright, dense studio plate reverb
• SPRING - spring reverb
• GRAIN - granular reverb
• BLEND - wet/dry blend (to 100% wet)
• PRE - predelay
• DECAY - reverb decay
• HI - high-frequency damping
• LO - low-frequency damping
• MOD - modulation amount and character
