Old Blood Noise Endeavors announced the BL-37 Reverb on July 25, 2023, adding a reverb pedal to the BL series that also includes the BL-44 Variable Clock Reverse and BL-82 Chorus12.
The pedal's central control is a Clock slider that affects the timing of the entire effect. According to MusicRadar, the clock function allows settings from quick, snappy reverbs to long tails that can be warped with modulation as the decay is lengthened via the Feedback control1. Gearnews reports that the Clock slider moves the sound from a quick, tile-bathroom echo to a darker, lo-fi, almost stretched reverb, and that the circuit introduces two points of modulation that affect the reverb2. Feedback lengthens the decay and increases the modulation character, while Volume sets the overall output level and Mix blends wet and dry signal12.
The BL-37 Reverb has a soft-touch bypass footswitch and is true bypass12. The enclosure art was created by Brandy M Patterson12. It runs on a 9V DC center-negative power supply and draws a minimum of 110mA12.
Gearnews lists an MSRP of USD 1792. MusicRadar's report gives no price.
"the clock function gives you the option of setting the BL-37 Reverb to quick and snappy reverbs that come right back at you or long reverb tails that you can then warp with some modulation as you increase the length of the reverb decay via the Feedback control"
