Tsakalis Ocean Owner`s Manual

Ocean

The Ocean was designed to create, a studio quality, classic and ambient reverb textures of sound in a small sized

pedal. From thick and endless hall reverb, symphonic shimmers and classic vintage spring reverb.

3 types of reverb: Hall, Shimmer and Spring, fully customized via “Size”, “Diffuse” and “Storm” controls. “Mix”

control adjusts the balance between dry and wet signal and you can go from a pure dry signal to a 100% wet

signal, no dry at all, ideal for volume swells without the need of volume pedal or guitar volume knob. All these

makes the Ocean a versatile pedal ideal for almost any reverb job.

Hall mode (HL) is a reverb type that can move your signal from a small sized echoed room to a haunting

long caved hall. Ambient sounds with infinitive echoes can produce here.

 Size – mimics the length of the room where reverb produced. Set to zero for very small room

(almost no effect), set to full for huge hall adding long trails and echoes.

 Storm - will control the damping of the trails and echoes.

 Diffuse – mimics the material of the walls of the room. Set to zero for flat - glassy walls, set to full

for porous - spongy walls which will diffuse the reverb signal.

Shimmer mode (SH) is a reverb type that can move your signal from a classic hall reverb to a symphonic

almost infinitive reverb with pads and overtones.

 Size – mimics the size of the hall where reverb produced. Set to zero for very small hall (almost no

effect), set to full for big hall and long tails.

 Storm - will control the level of the pads and overtones (shimmer) produced by the reverb. Turn

clockwise to increase the shimmer effect.

 Diffuse – mimics the material of the walls of the room. Set to zero for flat - glassy walls, set to full

for porous - spongy walls which will diffuse the reverb signal.

Spring mode (SP) is a classic spring reverb that mimics the vintage character and grit of the spring reverb

tanks. It can move your signal from a short echo surf reverbs to long splashy sounds.

 Size – mimics the size of the tank but also the number of springs. Set to zero for small tank and

short tails, set to full for big tank and long tails.

 Storm – mimics the spring vibration and shake when the signal pass through them. Set to zero for

almost no spring effect, set to full for bold and a lot of vibrations.

 Diffuse – controls the reverb tone. Turn clockwise to lower the threshold of higher frequencies

allowed in the reverberated signal.
