Crazy Tube Circuits launches Mirage dual reverb workstation

July 1, 2025 · 3 sources

Crazy Tube Circuits announced the Mirage Dual Reverb Workstation on July 1, 2025, a reverb pedal built around two independent reverb engines12.

Each engine draws on 16 algorithms, split into a vintage/classic bank and an ambient/experimental bank1. MusicRadar lists Room, Hall, Plate, Cathedral and Spring among the classic sounds, alongside a Springier mode modeled on outboard units and studio tanks, an Inchindown mode inspired by Scottish oil tanks, Gated, modulated, four Shimmer modes, Repeater, Frozen Hall and Infinite2. Guitar Pedal X notes the pedal has no reverse mode1.

Routing options include mono in stereo out, stereo, series, separate channels and a send/return loop between the engines for inserting other pedals between the reverb stages1. Each side has Volume, Mix, Voice, Swell and Excite controls, with a shift button to toggle between them13. The footswitches can switch each channel independently or control Swell and Excite, and there is an assignable external expression pedal input1. Internal switches set routing, true or trails bypass, and kill-dry1. The signal path is analog dry, with click-less relay true bypass or buffered bypass with trails1.
