Old Blood Noise Endeavors Sunlight Reverb FAQs

How Does the Sunlight Pedal Work?

The pedal reacts to your playing by freezing and sustaining notes when you stop, then fading them out when you play again. This creates an evolving ambient effect that responds to your dynamics.

What Are the Three Modes of the Sunlight Pedal?

Tape Mode adds a fluctuating vibrato, similar to the natural inconsistencies of an old tape machine. Comb Mode stacks four short delays after the reverb, creating a shimmering, resonant effect. Pass Mode applies a bandpass filter that moves randomly, adding a unique, rhythmic texture to your sound.

Can I Use an Expression Pedal With the Sunlight Pedal?

Yes, the Sunlight pedal allows external expression control over multiple parameters, including Input, Decay, Rate, and Depth. This gives you real-time control over the effect, making it perfect for live performances and dynamic sound shaping.

Does the Sunlight Pedal Work With a Bass Guitar?

Yes, it works great with bass. The pedal’s dynamic reverb and filtering effects can add depth and texture to basslines, making them more atmospheric or experimental.

What’s the Difference Between OBNE Sunlight vs Dark Star?

The OBNE Sunlight vs Dark Star offers different reverb experiences. The Sunlight reacts dynamically to your playing, holding, and evolving notes until new ones are played, with three modes: Tape, Comb, and Pass.

The OBNE Dark Star vs Sunlight focuses on creating atmospheric effects with pitch shifting and delay. If you want a reverb that changes with your playing, go for the Sunlight. For more experimental ambient sounds with pitch and delay, the Dark Star is a great choice.

What Power Supply Does the Sunlight Pedal Need?

Can I Use the Sunlight Pedal in a Live Performance?

Absolutely! The Alt switch allows for quick preset changes, and the expression pedal input lets you tweak settings in real-time. These features make it a versatile tool for live gigs and improvisational playing.

Does the Sunlight Pedal Work Well With Other Effects?

Yes, the Old Blood Noise Sunlight reverb pairs beautifully with delays, modulation effects, and other reverbs. It can be placed early in your signal chain for a pad-like reverb effect or later for an ambient wash.
