Crazy Tube Circuits White Whale V2 Reverb & Tremolo

An all-analog reverb & tremolo based on classic 1960s amps!

Inspired by the classic pairing of reverb and tremolo found in 1960s Fender amps, White Whale V2 sets out to pack huge real spring reverb and tremolo sounds in a pedalboard-friendly enclosure!

The 3-spring reverb tank housed inside its enclosure has remained the same as on V1, but Crazy Tube Circuits upgraded the power amp driving the springs for increased headroom and a wider frequency response.

Crazy Tube Circuits also upgraded the Dwell control to allow for mellower or splashier reverb sounds.

The spring reverb tanks found in 1960s amps and reverb units featured a tube power amp driving the spring assembly via an output transformer, so Crazy Tube delicately tuned and analog circuit to emulate the natural saturation that was produced at higher settings.

Choose between 3 different reverb sounds!

Every vintage unit had its own signature sound, so Crazy Tube added a switch that lets you select between the most emblematic ones.

You can select between the milder reverb qualities of a short to medium 2-spring reverb tank, the liveliness of a medium to long 2-spring reverb tank and the dense reverb qualities of a long 3-spring reverb tank.

Higher reverb mix settings tend to get lost in the mix, so Crazy Tube Circuits made sure you’ll be heard loud and clear by incorporating a volume control capable of up to 20db boost!

Choose between harmonic, optical and tube-bias tremolo.

The tremolo section has also been upgraded to feature harmonic tremolo, besides the opto and tube bias found in the original.

This hypnotic and mesmerizing effect was found on Brown and Blonde-era amps and does frequency-based modulation by shifting between high and low frequencies.

Crazy Tube made sure to include the two most significant variations of harmonic tremolo, as found in the original amps, that differentiate in the range and sweep of pulsating frequencies.

Completely independent sections!

Another upgrade found in the White Whale V2 is that the two effect sections are now completely independent and you can select the effects order so that the tremolo effect comes before the reverb or vice versa.

This gives you the option to make heavenly combinations as optical and tube bias style tremolo usually sound better when placed after the reverb while harmonic tremolo usually sounds better when placed in front of the reverb.
