BigSky Presets by Brendan Orchard

Price

$45.00

These are the exact Strymon BigSky presets Brendan Orchard—guitarist for Bailey Zimmerman—has used for years while touring arenas and tracking on major records. This 7-preset bundle covers his full range of go-to reverbs, from subtle space and vintage spring tones to massive ambient swells and shimmering plates.

 

Each preset was fine-tuned through real-world use—built not for show, but because they just work. Whether you're laying down clean rhythm parts, tracking big ambient textures, or adding sparkle to lead lines, these are the same reverb sounds Brendan trusts night after night.

 

Includes files formatted for both the BigSky pedal and the BigSky plugin.

    Preset Details

    Hall Main

    My go-to reverb for adding subtle space and warmth. Low mix, slightly scooped low end and mids, and a touch of modulation help to liven up any cab.


    Springy spring

    A spring that brings some splash. High mix and the combo dwell setting get me in the ballpark of some of that vintage amp washiness.


    Cloud Cover

    A medium-sized cloud reverb with a bit of pre-delay so I can play driving parts and chords without getting too muddy, and scooped lows with high diffusion keep things smooth and create a nice ambient bed.


    Bloomin Diamonds

    This is a great reverb for adding some sparkle and helping to lift a guitar part. I mainly use this when tracking diamonds, or any sort of parts that are held out. It also sounds great paired with my Diamond Digital Timeline preset.


    Full Plate

    I love EVH, and this is the Plate setting I use often to get me in the neighborhood when playing Van Halen.


    Swell Cloud

    A big Cloud setting for swells. No pre-delay, tone rolled all the way off, and diffusion maxed out with high mix and decay create for a nice, smooth swell tone.


    Big Bloom

    An ambient reverb that I'll use as an alternative to my Cloud Cover setting. Short length and feedback help the reverb bloom in a nice way without being too much.
