Chase Bliss Dark World Dual Channel Reverb

• Dark WorldTM is the first fully digital offering from Chase Bliss Audio; a unique dual channel reverb that we made with a little help from our friends.
• Keeley Electronics crafted the “World” channel, which houses three absolutely gorgeous Hall, Plate, and Spring algorithms.
• Put together, the channels can be routed in 33 distinct ways, creating a stunning palette of reverb ranging from subtle, tasteful, and lush all the way to broken video cassette, glitch shimmer, and infinite freeze.
• Add all this to the dense digital control and full MIDI, dip-switch, and preset implementation Chase Bliss is known for, and you have yourself a very fun, powerful, and player-friendly reverb pedal in a small package.
• Cooper FX is responsible for the “Dark” channel; a collaborative effort influenced partly by their Generation Loss and Outward designs.

The Chase Bliss Blooper Bottomless Looper combines high-quality looping with creative manipulation to give you infinite possibilities. Record and save up to eight layers of loops in three distinct modes. Tinker with your tone using two dedicated modifier inputs or the built-in lo-fi stability control. Whether you’re performing live on stage or tracking in studio, Blooper has everything you need to take your creativity to new heights and bottomless depths.

THREE MODES

Blooper features three modes, enabling different styles of looping. In Normal mode, Blooper behaves like a “standard” looper, with the modifier and stability controls acting as post-processing effects for clean and simple overdubs. In Additive mode, overdubbing while a modifier or stability is active will imprint the effect on the loop.

In Sampler mode, you can record and manually trigger samples, rather than looping. Sampler mode also offers the ability to record traditional loops. However, each time you record, the previous loop is replaced by a new one, making this setting ideal for creating stutters or fast, performative looping.

IN-DEPTH CONTROLS

With six knobs, four switches and two push-buttons, Blooper gives you total control over every aspect of your sound. The Volume or Ramp knob primarily controls loop volume, but can also be used to modify the Layers, Repeats, Mod A, Stability, and Mod B settings. The Ramp settings can be set to modulate or ramp-and-hold using the 16 dedicated dip switches on the back of the pedal.

The Layers knob lets you navigate through the different layers you’ve recorded and even acts as an undo/redo control. This can be a quick way to remove mistakes, but it’s also a flexible tool for performing your loops.

The Repeats knob enables you to have layers gradually fade away, at a speed of your choosing. This setting makes it easy to slowly fade out a loop, or quickly cut a loop to transition to a new section of a song.

ENDLESS CREATIVITY

Blooper has two channels of modifiers, activated by buttons on the bottom of the pedal. These buttons can be used as a momentary effect by holding them down, or standard on / off with a quicker press.

The Mod A knob controls the A channel of Blooper’s selectable modifiers 1, 2 and 3, although the exact function changes depending on the mode. The Mod B knob controls Blooper’s selectable modifiers 4, 5 and 6. Finally, the Stability control introduces a vintage analog vibe that utilizes Wow, Flutter, Noise, and Filtering effects—perfect for gradually wearing out your loop over time.
