Description: Excellent Condition.Some Wear To Knobs & Casing (Not All Visible In Images). From DigiTech:The Polara taps into the famous legacy of the Lexicon reverb library and adds a few of its own tricks. You get the standard fare of Plate, Spring, Hall and Room, along with the eerie Modulated and Reverse settings. The Hall effect is spacious and lively, while the Spring and Plate expertly tap into the classic sounds of the '60s studio scene. In terms of control, you get Decay, which controls the length of the reverb's trails, as well as Liveliness, which opens the faucet of high frequency response in the the reverbs. Baby I Can See Your Halo Where this pedal really makes it mark is with the Halo setting, which is something of an "I can taste color" experience. This is the mode for those interested in making noise and lots of it. By adding sparse octave content to the trail of the effect, the Halo setting glides through the cosmos, navigating all the astroid belts and solar flares of your playing and rig. It's safe to say that the guys at DigiTech were channeling their '80s British Goth with this one. As Tom Cram from DigiTech explains: "I?m a huge Robin Guthrie fan, and to me the Halo mode with the Decay wide-open and the Liveliness on around 3:00 is pure Robin Guthrie. I could lie around in a bean-bag chair and play that setting for hours." And it's true. With the controls past noon and the pedal set to Halo, the Polara rips open a wormhole straight to the shoegaze nebula. Speaking of shoegaze, there is also a Reverse reverb mode just as there was on the Hardwire RV-7 Reverb. While somewhat limited in application by itself, the reverse reverb sounds great in tandem with other effects and even other reverbs for some unique back and forth motion in the undulating soundscapes. For further effect chain experimenation, the Polara includes stereo in-and-outs and a Tails switch that toggles whether the 'verb sounds will continue after the pedal is bypassed. Pedalboard Friendly Apart from its obvious visual panache, the Polara also comes in a much smaller enclosure than previous Digi pedals and fits comfortably into the ever-expanding pedalboards of today's players. And what Polara review would be complete without the included StompLock?: a small rubber device that fits over the control knobs to keep your settings in place? Beyond its primary function, the StompLock doubles a spooky puppet kind of thing you can use to entertain your friends. The Digitech Polara Reverberator is an affordable and versatile pedal that will cover your reverb needs in a similar vein to the TC Hall Of Fame and the Boss RV-5. Where it makes its mark is with the expansiveness of the Halo setting and the inclusion of a Reverse mode.
