Source Audio's Encounter is a dual delay and reverb pedal tuned towards immersive ambiences. Loaded up with six delays and six reverbs, Encounter gives you the option to run any combination of two engines, leading to endless worlds of sonic possibility. Some of these engines return from past Source Audio pedals like Ventris and Nemesis, updated with new parameters and sonic tweaks to breathe new life into them. Totally new algorithms like Hypersphere, Kaleidoscope, and Shimmers prove that Source Audio is still pursuing fresh ideas and new transformative effects.

Managing two effects at once might seem tricky, but Source Audio makes it as easy as possible! Encounter offers a Knobs switch to determine what effect is being adjusted: set it to Delay or Reverb accordingly, while the Lock position prevents accidental adjustments. Of course, you still have the option to operate two delays or two reverbs at once if you'd like to! And if you'd like an extended editing experience, the Neuro 3 app is available to manage MIDI settings, deeper parameter options, and more. Meet and greet with some new ambiences in Source Audio's Encounter.

  • Combine any combination of two engines—including two delays or two reverbs at once

  • 6 Different Delay Effects

  • Combine Any Two Reverb and Delay Effects
    Run any of Encounter's delay and reverb effects individually or in pairs with series, parallel, or split stereo routing.

  • Dual Signal Processing
    The pedal includes two identical 56-bit signal processors for massive processing power, essentially housing both a high-powered delay pedal and reverb pedal in a single box.

  • Simple User Interface
    When the knobs toggle switch is on DELAY, all knobs control the delay, including the effect selection wheel. When the toggle is set to REVERB, all the knobs control the reverb. When the toggle is set to LOCK, accidental knob bumps will not alter any sounds.

  • Run Dual Delay or Dual Reverb Effects
    To run two delay or two reverb effects at once, press and hold the CONTROL INPUT button, then turn the Effect Selector knob. This "opens" the Effect Selector, letting you load delay or reverb engines to either side of the pedal.

  • Compatible with Free Neuro 3 Editor for iOS, Android, MacOS or Windows
    Download Source Audio's free software and audition, create, organize, share, and download Encounter presets.

  • Experience Encounter Before Owning the Pedal
    Use Neuro 3's SoundCheck feature to hear and create Encounter presets using only a phone or desktop computer. SoundCheck includes pre-recorded guitar, bass, keyboard, or drum clips that can be played through a perfect recreation of the pedal. Make parameter changes in Encounter's Neuro Sound Editor and hear them back in real-time.

  • 128 User Presets
    Save up to 8 presets recallable via the pedal's onboard controls plus an additional 120 presets accessible via MIDI program change (PC) messages.

  • Stereo Input and Output Jacks
    Choose from mono, stereo, and dual mono.

  • Dedicated Footswitches
    The left footswitch is the ON/OFF for the delay. The right footswitch is the ON/Off for the reverb. The left switch also provides tap tempo when the delay is engaged.

  • Universal Bypass
    Select either analog buffered or relay based true bypass.

  • Analog Dry Through
    The dry signal is routed around the signal processor for a completely unaffected dry tone (available only with Parallel Routing).

  • 100% Wet Option
    A dry kill option for use in effects loops.

  • Complete MIDI Functionality
    Engage any or the Encounter's 128 preset or control any of its adjustable parameters with external MIDI messages. Includes 5-pin MIDI DIN input and through jacks.
