The Keeley Hydra combines two tone-enriching effects in one simple, pedalboard-friendly package. This feature-packed sonic workstation offers a range of high-fidelity reverb and tremolo algorithms that can add both space and dimension to your guitar, bass or synth sounds.
Following in the footsteps of their acclaimed Eccos 2-in-1 delay/looper, Keeley’s versatile Hydra pedal is the perfect companion for vintage aficionados who adore old-school ambient reverbs mixed together with traditional tremolo tones.
2 Effects in 1 Pedal
Hydra is split into two sides to reflect each of its sound engines, with independent Reverb and Tremolo footswitches making it easy to engage each of these effects or use them simultaneously. To alter the response of this killer tremolo/reverb combination, you can change their order to suit your specific tonal needs.
In addition, the Keeley Hydra’s ‘Alt Controls’ let you access in-depth parameters to shape the character of both engines. The pedal also offers an infinite reverb trail that’s perfect for creating dreamy soundscapes with, while the tremolo side’s footswitch doubles up as a tap-tempo function for syncing-up with a drummer or any musical accompaniment.
