Strymon BigSky Presets

TINKED

TINKED is an always-on hall reverb. Pair this one with a chorus and think happy vintage 80s thoughts.

SLVR__SRFR

Author: Edge Quintanilla

SLVR__SRFR - ride the clouds with this cloud reverb and the let the heavens join in praise. #PraiseBe

SHVR

Author: Edge Quintanilla

SHVR - a shimmer delay that starts to tickle the overtone series. It's like a cherub giggling.

REVREND

Author: Edge Quintanilla

REVREND is a great reverse verb synced to a quarter note return. Used on No Other Name.

OLD HORSEMAN

Author: Edge Quintanilla

OLD HORSEMAN is a long nonlinear delay with a slow gallop. I like to think of it as the ghost of an old wizard galloping through The Shire at night.

0IL_SPILL

Author: Edge Quintanilla

0IL SPILL is a modulated spring reverb inspired by oil can delays. Hit it hard and get a glob of verb spit/spat in your face. Try it with a tremolo/vibrato pedal but try not to get seasick.

TIDES.big_sky.syx

Author: Cody Adams

Probably my favorite sound. A couple tweaks to the factory preset. Not Bethel’s tides, but a great reverb that I use for slow worship and chords. I love this sound.

SWELL.big_sky.syx

Auto swell that comes in handy when I need it. Simple but beautiful.

SPRING.big_sky.syx

Author: Cody Adams

Spring reverb I sound for bluesy leads and grooves.

SOFT_BLOOM.big_sky.syx

Author: Cody Adams

a good use of the bloom verb that won’t get away from you. Softly bloom behind chords and leads as you play slow worship stuff.

SHORT.big_sky.syx

Author: Cody Adams

Short reverb sound I use for fast worship, that is just nice for keeping things warm.

SHIMMER.big_sky.syx

Author: Cody Adams

I really am moving away from shimmer patches, but this sounds great. I use it very rarely, but fun to keep in another bank.

PERFECT.big_sky.syx

Author: Cody Adams

A couple tweaks to the default, its the perfect sound I go-to for alter calls.

LONG.big_sky.syx

Author: Cody Adams

Long decay, to keep chords long. I use this most for slow jams and alter calls.

HALL.big_sky.syx

Author: Cody Adams

This is a sound that I use to keep my guitar tone Big during fast worship. Kind of hangs to of the way, but keeps things spacey.

BLUSKY.big_sky.syx

Author: Cody Adams

This was the setting I used on the BlueSky for so long. Room reverb, Heavy mod, High decay. Great for slow stuff thats more involved than swells.

SLAP.big_sky.syx

Uses Reflections reverb machine. A slapback delay effect great for thickening your sound.
