NEW Arrival
NEW Caline CP-27 Snake Bite Reverb Excellent Ambient Response

RES:（resonant）- to simulate resonant response in different environment of acoustics.
CFR（center frequency）- to adjust center frequency of format.
LPF（low pass filter）- to adjust the radio-frequency component of reverb response.
PRD（pre-delay）- to simulate the delay of space reflection.

Some of the knobs on the Caline cp-26 Snake Bite will be familiar to you, like Mix, Decay, and Pre-delay (which is like echo). Some folks seem to be uncertain of what the “Res” knob is. It’s basically like a “room-hall-plate” switch, only it’s a knob. “CFR” or center frequency control is supposed to affect the tone, but it’s difficult to hear much change. “LPF” stands for low pass filter. When you you turn this up, not only do you get more treble but the reverb effect comes through a little better.
If you’re foolish enough to crank up both Mix and Decay up all the way you will hear a little bit of noise. Mix doesn’t need to be any higher than half-way (mine is set to 10:00). Otherwise, I find this to be a rather quiet pedal (I use a clean-boost prior to the input and it definitely helps).
The main ic chip inside is a 32 bit flash microcontroller called STM32f103 with 48 pins. The newer Caline cp-26 pedals do not have true bypass. It uses some kind of a “latch enable” flag. When the pedal is first powered on you have to push the button one time to make the reverb effect come (I simply leave it on all the time).
I find that I can get any kind of reverb sound I want with this pedal. I typically prefer a subtle amout of reverb for some added “air”. This pedal is definitely a keeper.
