It’s always a party when we all get the pleasure of another release from the genius crew over at Keeley Electronics, and their latest is just fantastic. Coming on the heels of last year’s uber-popular ECCOS Stereo Delay & Looper, the HYDRA Stereo Reverb & Tremolo is the perfect compliment to wrap up the end of your signal chain. Again combining two incredible effects, this one has a TON of tone, a BUNCH of options and sounds that will set your soul free. Get ready, we’re diving in!
The HYDRA combines high-fidelity Reverb and Tremolo to add space and dimension to your guitar, bass, or keyboard signal. Bathe your sound in Spring, Plate or Room Reverb, then add tap-tempo enabled Harmonic, Vibrato, or Sine Wave Tremolo with the press of a button. You can easily change the order of effects or the character of the Tremolo or Reverb with the HYDRA’s smart Alt Controls. You can even create an Infinite Hold Reverb Trail!
Save up to three presets with ease using our intuitive save feature, and even engage the Reverb Trails on the fly – no more internal dip switches. The Hydra can be used with pro remote switching systems and offers both TRS Expression Pedal and External Tap-Tempo inputs. A complete end-of-pedalboard solution that fits perfectly in any musician’s rig, regardless of genre. Experience next-level processing power in this pedalboard-friendly enclosure. The sky, or more appropriately, the ocean floor, is the limit with this monster modulation machine!
Speaking of diving right in, our demo below will explain anything and everything you need to know about the HYDRA Stereo Reverb & Tremolo and all it can do. It’s a long one, but sometimes you need 15 or more minutes to dig into something this complex (although it is extremely user-friendly), so sit back, grab a cold one and enjoy the soothing sounds of the latest Keeley triumph. Cheers as always to Robert and everyone at Keeley Electronics – not only do they make wicked rad gear, but they have been one of our biggest supporters throughout the years, and we are so humbled to partner with them on these reviews and demos. Now, grab those headphones and head over to YouTube for the demo (don’t forget to subscribe and turn on those notifications, now)!! Cheers!
