Product Overview

The Infinite Blooming Textures of a Late-'70s Studio Standard, Shrunk for Your Rig

Introduced in 1978, the first commercially viable digital studio microcomputer reverbs completely changed the sound of music. Found in elite tracking spaces worldwide, this grainy yet incredibly lush digital hardware added an unmistakable, blooming character to classic albums by artists ranging from Talking Heads and U2 to Blade Runner's cinematic soundtracks. The Universal Audio UAFX Evermore Studio Reverb packs that exact legendary sound into a compact, single-width stompbox.

Evermore avoids generic modern algorithms to provide an exact, bit-for-bit mathematical reproduction of those early digital programs. It perfectly retains the classic lower-bit converter grit, the signature pitch modulation artifacting, and the legendary acoustic bloom that feels alive beneath your picking attack.

Product Description

Three Iconic Vintage Digital Rooms and Halls:

The Evermore features a dedicated 3-way Program toggle switch, letting you jump between three masterfully modeled spaces straight from the vintage hardware's classic code base:

• Room: Recreates a tighter, highly reflective studio acoustic environment. It adds an organic, immediate three-dimensional width and percussive depth that wraps around your notes without washing out your core signal—perfect for rhythm playing or tightening up synths.

• Small Hall: Emulates a medium-sized concert hall with a lush, dark decay tail. It creates a beautifully warm, smooth bedding underneath lead lines and slow chord transitions, evoking classic indie-rock and late-’80s shoegaze textures.

• Large Hall: The holy grail of ambient guitar sounds. This program yields an incredibly massive, sprawling, and endlessly blooming space with the original unit’s signature modulated pitch movement. It lets you craft epic cinematic soundscapes, long swells, and wide ambient washes.

Revolutionary Bass and Treble Decay Splitting:

The magic of this early digital unit lay in how it allowed engineers to split the reverb decay times across different frequencies. Evermore retains this innovative workflow by changing standard EQ controls into interactive decay tuners:

• Bass Knob: Controls the specific decay time of the low frequencies. Cranking it gives you a boomy, dark, and earth-shaking ambient wash; pulling it back keeps your low-end notes tight and articulate.

• Treble Knob: Adjusts the decay time of the high-frequency reflections. Lower settings isolate your core note, while higher adjustments create a shimmering, bright, and glassy digital cloud that blooms after you finish a line.

Modern Build Quality with Vintage Trail Spillover:

Designed for both intensive touring setups and high-end studio guitar tracking, Evermore features a premium Analog Dry-Through circuit path. Your dry instrument signal bypasses the digital processor entirely to preserve its pure analog tone, ensuring zero latency and zero signal loss.

The rear panel includes a hardware slider to easily toggle between True Bypass (for an uncompromised signal path when the pedal is off) and Buffered Trails Bypass (allowing your beautiful hall and room reflections to decay naturally and smoothly after you disengage the pedal footswitch).

Key Features

• AUTHENTIC LEXICON 224 MODELING: Bit-for-bit digital reproduction of the iconic late-1970s studio digital rackmount hardware reverb algorithms.

• THREE RETRO DIGITAL PROGRAMS: Onboard toggle lets you select between Room, Small Hall, and Large Hall vintage algorithm spaces.

• DECAY-SPLITTING BASS & TREBLE CONTROLS: Adjust the decay length of low and high frequencies independently to sculpt the exact shape of your ambient cloud.

• PRE-DELAY NOTE CLARITY: Onboard Pre-Delay knob isolates your initial instrument attack from the reverb body, preserving crisp note articulation.

• EARLY DIGITAL CONVERTER CHARACTER: Retains the distinct musical grain, low-bit response, and lush pitch modulation that made vintage digital units famous.

• SWITCHABLE TRUE / TRAILS BYPASS: Choose between absolute true mechanical relay bypass or buffered trails bypass with smooth reverb spillover.

• PURE ANALOG DRY-THROUGH: Your dry signal remains completely untouched in the analog domain to preserve dynamic integrity and eliminate digital latency.

• COMPACT TOUR-READY ENCLOSURE: Heavy-duty, compact die-cast aluminum chassis built to save valuable real estate on modern pedalboards.
