Collider Delay+Reverb User Guide
Welcome
Thank you for purchasing the Collider Delay+Reverb. This powerful, yet easy-to-use stereo effects
pedal features 12 meticulously crafted delay and reverb engines. Each effect was handpicked from
our award winning and highly regarded Nemesis Delay and Ventris Dual Reverb pedals. The Collider’s
intuitive control surface makes it easy to mix-and-match any two-engine combination of delay and
reverb. Plus, dual footswitches provide individual Engage/Bypass control over each effect in a two-
engine combination.
The Collider offers an exceptional collection of rich, spacious tones, including realistic reproductions
of vintage Analog, Tape, and Oil Can Delays, classic models of Spring and Plate Reverb, natural
replications of large and small acoustic spaces, and an intriguing and highly musical selection of
“unnatural” tones including Reverse Delay and Shimmer Reverb.
The pedal also features dual DSP architecture, 8 user presets (or 128 user presets with MIDI), stereo
inputs and outputs, analog dry through, delay tap tempo, reverb hold, full MIDI functionality,
external expression capabilities, and extra editing and signal routing options via the Neuro Desktop
and Mobile App Editors.
We built the Collider Delay+Reverb for supreme sonic exploration. We cannot wait to hear where it
takes you.
