GFI System pedals have garnered plenty of acclaim in recent years for their stellar, ethereal sounds and intuitive interfaces. The Skylar reverb packs four quintessential and highly-versatile GFI System ambient algorithms into a compact pedal that is straightforward and easy to use. The LCD screen makes it a breeze to navigate through Skylar’s vast sonic palette and features, giving you more freedom to focus on your playing!

Key Features

  • 4 selectable reverb textures: Spatium, Shimmer, Plate, Tremble (tremolo-reverb with tap-tempo).
  • 2 presets, accessible via dedicated A/B footswitch.
  • 4 knobs provide you with plenty of control over different parameters.
  • Intuitive interface with bright LCD screen.
  • Analogue dry-through retains character of your unaffected tone.
  • Mono and stereo input/output, allowing you to use the pedal with single or dual-amplifier rigs.
  • Expression pedal and tap-tempo input lets you affect parameters on-the-fly.
  • Momentary action supported.

Mono or Stereo – You Decide!

The GFI System Skylar has both mono and stereo inputs/outputs. This means that you can use it with a simple single-amp setup, or run it through two separate amplifiers to create an immersive ambient experience. Mono connection is made using standard TS patch cables, while stereo routing is achieved via TRS cables (a splitter-Y cable may be required).‹

External Control

A thoughtfully-added multi-purpose jack allows you to connect the Skylar to an expression or tap-tempo pedal.‹ With an expression pedal, you can directly control certain reverb parameters completely on-the-fly — perfect for players who like to create experimental and otherworldly sounds! An external tap-tempo can be used to control the tremolo speed in the Tremble algorithm.

Guitar Pedals

Guitar Pedals is a useful category for players looking to shape their guitar or bass sound in a more focused way. Products in this area can help with tone, control, routing, performance or creative sound design depending on the exact type of gear involved.

For anyone building a pedalboard, guitar pedals options can help fill a specific gap in the signal chain or open up new sounds that are difficult to achieve with an amp alone. They are worth exploring when you want a more personal, flexible and practical setup.

Reverb Pedals

Reverb pedals add the sense of space around your guitar, from small room ambience to spring tanks, halls, plates and huge atmospheric washes. They can make a dry guitar sound more natural, more polished or much more dramatic depending on the style of reverb used.

A subtle reverb can sit almost unnoticed behind your tone, while ambient and shimmer reverbs can become the main feature of a sound. Reverb pedals are essential for players who want depth, atmosphere and a more three-dimensional feel from their rig.

Guitar Pedal

Guitar Pedal pedals and related effects are commonly used by guitarists looking to shape their tone in a more focused and creative way. Different designs offer their own response, feel and tonal character depending on the style of music and the type of amplifier or guitar being used.

Many players build pedalboards gradually over time, combining different effects and utilities to create a setup that suits their own sound and workflow. Guitar Pedal related gear can play an important role in both live performance and studio recording.

Reverb

Reverb pedals recreate the reflections and ambience of physical spaces, helping guitar tones feel larger, deeper and more immersive. Spring, plate, hall and shimmer reverbs all offer different textures ranging from subtle room ambience through to huge cinematic washes.

Modern reverb pedals are often central to ambient and atmospheric pedalboards, but they are equally valuable for adding polish and dimension to clean tones, lead parts and studio recordings.
