Pre-Order Details
Note: Pre-order this product today, ETA of units will be updated soon.
Limited Black Custom Finish Enclosure
The original and much loved Dark Star is an epic pedal that historically was OBNE’s most popular reverb, but now, it’s the turn of the new Dark Star Stereo which expands greatly on all the ambient reverb, pitch shifting and bit crushing of the original and delivers it in one hell of a massive stereo voice.
Seen here in the limited edition and custom Black finish enclosure, this is a new Dark Star for a new era, with a drastically expanded feature set and improved signal quality that is sure to draw in old fans and new, and reviving the magic of the long-trail lo-fi reverb algorithm that made Dark Star a breakout hit years ago.

What Do OBNE Say?
Dark Star is a characterful lo-fi reverb, ideal for slow attack and pad generation. Around the core voice are a number of controls for signal degradation, filtering, pitch shifting, added delay, and utilities like mix and volume. For integration into many different rigs, Dark Star has stereo in and out with analog dry through and trails or true bypass switching. Presets, expression control over every knob, and MIDI control over every element round out the robust feature set. This is a reverb for anywhere in your signal chain, and almost an instrument of its own.
Controls
- Filter to set a low pass or high pass filter on the reverb
- Pitch 1 and Pitch 2 to set two independent pitch shifts from -2 octaves to +2 octaves
- Crush to introduce either sample rate reduction or overdrive
- Lag to introduce additional delay to the reverb
- Multiply to add feedback to the whole system, enhancing effects like rising and falling pitch shifts
- Decay to set the main trail length of the reverb
- Volume to set overall volume
- Mix to set effect blend from 100% dry to 100% wet
- Spread to simultaneously pan left and right in opposite directions
- Aux switch to indefinitely sustain trails, close the low pass filter, or set the pitches to +1 octave, depending on setting
- Soft-touch Bypass footswitch for true bypass and minimal switch noise
