Keeley Hydra Stereo Reverb and Tremolo Pedal

Keeley Hydra Stereo Reverb and Tremolo Pedal, New, Action Position Back

Pick up a Hydra to drench your guitar tone in the dense sound of stereo effects. Choose from three different reverb and tremolo styles to color your sound.

Overview

The HYDRA combines high-fidelity Reverb and Tremolo to add space and dimension to your guitar, bass, or keyboard signal. After the team at Keeley completed the ECCOS, we wanted to craft the perfect companion pedal, and we did just that with our new, feature-rich blue box.

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 HYDRAs smart Alt Controls. You can even create an Infinite Hold Reverb Trail!
Save up to three presets with ease using our intuitive save feature. Engage 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.

The HYDRA is a complete end-of-pedalboard solution that fits perfectly in any musicians 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 the new Keeley Electronics HYDRA!

The reverbs are fairly standard and go from drippy 60's spy movie to a huge hall. There are some modulation and modification parameters but nothing in the territory of the huge cloud P&W style reverbs, but that's not where I think this pedal is aimed anyway. However when ran in stereo it can still produce some really beautiful ambience, especially when paired with Keeley's Halo delay. Definitely a step or two above most amps built in digital reverbs, and you can have 3 reverb presets plus the panel. The tremolo is also very nice and can go from subtle to How Soon is Now. It's not quite as crazy as some trems out there, but all modes are very musical. You can also have 3 trem presets plus panel. It also sounds wonderful in stereo.For performance features it takes a tiny bit of tap dancing to move presets or engage tap tempo, and even though it's the same layout it requires different steps (pun intended) to navigate than the Halo which is confusing at first. There is also an expression pedal jack, but I've not used it yet.When you take into account all this pedal can do, plus it's stereo AND normal form factor, it's a bargain. Definitely check it out if you are in the market.
