Please try to make the dreadbox darkness on the mercuryx, it's the one thing I'm dying to see if it's possible, otherwise I have to buy one. It's the only reverb pedal other than the nightsky I've ever actually wanted to get (which is now substituted for a zoia)
@@thepedalcollaborative I originally returned mine because it was unbalanced, I feel like with a zoia and mercuryx though I can recreate it 1 to 1 but I haven't tried that yet. Zoia or my Julianna chorus for the lfo, zoia, mercuryx, or moog mf101 for the low pass filter, and then the gate.
I was thinking of buying both the Sloer and OBN Darklight pedal. Shall I ditch the idea and just get the Mercury X? With the sound of your patches, it seems to replicate both pedals (and others) very well.
Great question! I think that depends on what you’re looking for. Both the Slöer and Dark Light are great pedals, as is the MercuryX, but they all have disadvantages as well as advantages. Slöer has presets but not midi or expression Dark Light doesn’t have presets but does have expression. It’s also a weird kind of stereo. Hard to explain but kind of like a dual mono with stereo spread unless you put the Dark on one side and Light on the other. MercuryX has everything and then some but can be a little complex to dive into. MercuryX can’t do dual reverb as of right now, which would be a possibility with buying both the others. Obviously our presets for the MercuryX are available and would give you jump start into all these sounds on the MercuryX Hope that helps?
@@thepedalcollaborativeThanks for the reply. I already have an original Bigsky so that would tick the dual reverb box. I think I’m going to take the plunge and get the Mercury X and your presets. Or should I go for the new Bigsky MX ? Too many choices out there!!
@timnolan3125 too many choices!!! I want to say MercuryX simply because I like it… …BUT the BigSkyMX is like having 2 BigSkies so get that and it can be your dual reverb in 1 box!
Original SLO was my first ambient reverb. Which makes it ye old solid go-to. Now with your preset my Merc x will be able to pull it off. Thanks!
🙌 that’s awesome! The Slo is so good and its evolution to the Slöer is great! Happy these presets help!

Ooh yes the Darkness!!! It’s on my radar for sure! When I get one I’ll see how the MercuryX can handle those sounds
@@JohnnyADi dreadbox stuff is so cool. Just kinda big so I haven’t taken the plunge.
@tonytaylor5087 I felt like they were bigger than they are. Then I had some and was impressed

@JohnnyADi I’ll have to give it a go on the MercuryX!
