## Overview

The Walrus Audio Descent Reverb/Octave Machine Pedal is a premium analog effects processor designed for musicians seeking rich ambient textures. Featuring three distinct reverb modes—Hall, Reverse, and Shimmer—and octave blending capabilities (+1/-1), it offers deep tonal customization through eight dedicated controls. Its Fab input and expression pedal compatibility provide seamless live control, making it a must-have for professionals crafting immersive soundscapes.

## Description

The descent was designed to create ambient textures of sound, from thick and endless hall reverbs to Symphonic shimmers. The descent is a three mode reverb system; hall, reverse, and shimmer. In each mode, the user has the ability to feed +1 and -1 octaves into the reverberated signal. The hall mode will feature a classic reverb sound that can move your signal from a small-room-echo to a haunting long hall- echo. The reverse mode smoothly flips your signal to playback unique responses and can be manipulated with pre-delay time controls. Shimmer mode highlights the octave features, dry signal, -1, and +1 to mix in your signal and creates a symphony of sound. The descent offers you eight controls to precisely hone in your perfect reverb. In addition, the user can use an auxiliary momentary switch in the Fab input to switch the pedal on/off and/or save presets. If you have an already crowded pedal board, you can set your descent at the back of the board and run a small SPST switch to the front of the board so you don’t lose valuable real estate. The Fab input requires a TRS Cable to be used. The expression pedal control works with most on-the-shelf expression pedals. This feature allows the user to set the high and low parameters of each control and then fade in and out the those controls by moving your foot up or down on the expression pedal.

Review: PROS: This is a great pedal if you're looking to create soundscapes. It's very versatile and the octave addition feature can do some really spooky, ethereal stuff. I really like the "tweak" pot which lets you control the brightness of the reverberated signal. I bought the pedal because I was originally looking at the Seraphim Mono Shimmer and this, in addition to having a really great shimmer effect, also had a hall and reverse setting. As someone else said, I haven't found a use for the reverse setting but the hall does a good cavernous reverb. CONS: Because the "dry mix", "wet mix", "dry signal", and "reverb time" pots all play important factors in determining the verb, it can be cumbersome to find the sound you want. This gives you a lot of control but also requires a lot of subtle tweaking. You will definitely have to set presets to use this pedal live. My main criticism of this pedal is that even with the "reverb time" pot turned down all the way, the reverb is still fairly long meaning that this pedal does not work as an all-purposes reverb. Overall it gets 4 stars because it's great at what it does but it loses one for the convoluted controls and the long reverb time. This is an incredible pedal for abstract soundscapes but does not work as a general reverb.
Review: Fantastic sounding reverb pedal. I love the dark vibes and undertones. The 1 octave up and 1 octave down knobs are a really nice touch. I also love the fact that it has dip switches inside to make it a stereo pedal. (With additional dongle, not included) Super rad because I plan on plugging a few synths into it as well. It’s a little pricey ($299) but well worth it for the sounds you can get out of it. Definitely watch a few videos of it in action before pulling the trigger, so you know what you’re getting into.

Absolutely love the crazy sounds you can come up with on the Descent. The reverb sounds are stellar! My only issue is that using the left mono output, there's a ton of clicking as you rotate any of the knobs - not ideal. This doesn't happen using the right output however, and since I only use this in studio it's not a dealbreaker. Overall, this pedal rules. Build quality is great.
