The Mooer Ocean Machine 2 is a Devin Townsend signature delay, reverb, and looper pedal from Mooer (Shenzhen, China), designed in collaboration with progressive rock musician Devin Townsend (Strapping Young Lad, Devin Townsend Project). The Ocean Machine 2 delivers three simultaneous delay modes, reverb with multiple algorithms, and a looper in one pedal, capturing the lush, ambient delay and reverb character central to Devin Townsend thick wall-of-sound guitar tone.
The Walrus Audio Descent is a combined reverb and octave pedal that pairs modern reverb algorithms with octave-generating effects for lush, harmonized, space-rock and shoegaze textures. It layers higher and lower octaves into the reverb trail, creating a chorus-like wash of harmonized pitches and octaves that sounds especially rich on single notes, with the higher octaves particularly noticeable and beautiful. For a digital pedal it sounds excellent and offers a lot of creative room, with multiple reverb modes, octave controls, and a sustain or hold function for swelling ambient pads. It suits ambient, post-rock, and shoegaze players wanting expansive, pitch-shifted reverb soundscapes, delivering atmospheric, dimensional textures well beyond a standard reverb in a flexible, characterful pedal.
