Walrus Audio releases limited edition Lüm granular reverb

September 16, 2025 · 3 sources

Walrus Audio released the Lüm, a mono granular and textural reverb pedal, on September 16, 2025, drawing on elements of its Fable, Lore and Slö/Slötvå pedals123. It is a limited edition of 600 units worldwide123.

The pedal has three modes. Mode I, Grain Cloud, is described as a grain cloud with dual granular taps reading from a feedback delay line. Mode II, Grain Verb, uses dual granular taps reading from the delay memory of a reverb algorithm tank. Mode III, Forward Reverse Verb, runs a forward reverb algorithm into a reverse reverb algorithm13. The X knob controls grain size and glitch frequency in the first two modes and the reverse reverb decay in the third13. The Stretch knob adjusts the global sample rate from 0.5x to 2x, affecting grain size, reverb decay and filter tone3.

Controls are Decay, Filter, Mix and X, with a three-way mode switch12. The Moment footswitch automates parameters between two settings, with glide times of 10 ms, 1000 ms or 5000 ms12. Both footswitches pressed together scroll through three onboard presets1. Trails and instantaneous bypass modes are included3.

"Enclosure / Topology-wise - this is essentially a rebooted and updated version of the 3-Presets Walrus Audio Slotvå pedal - just with slightly different parameters and algorithms onboard!"
Guitar Pedal X1

Guitar Pedal X reported that only 600 were offered through the Walrus Audio Store for $2791. Gearnews gave the price as $293 at Thomann and also stated the run was limited to 600 units worldwide2. The two sources disagree on the US price.
