The Strymon BigSky requires a 9VDC Center Negative, 300mA power supply (included). If using an alternative power supply, make sure the voltage specifications are identical and that the power supply meets or exceeds the amperage (mA) rating.<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><strong>True Bypass or Analog Buffered Bypass<\/strong><ul><li>When you engage or bypass a pedal, that activates it \u201con\u201d and \u201coff\u201d in your signal chain. When bypassed with <strong>True Bypass<\/strong>, the pedal will produce no effects, and your direct signal will pass through. When bypassed with <strong>Analog Buffered Bypass,<\/strong> you enable reverb trails even after the pedals are technically disengaged.<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><strong>Cab Filter Switch<\/strong><ul><li>BigSky provides a sophisticated Cab Filter for times when a guitar amp isn\u2019t used. If you\u2019re outputting to a full-range PA system, recording interface, or headphones, you can simply place BigSky last in your effects chain and engage the Cab Filter.<\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.strymon.net\/support\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/media\/2022\/04\/Bigy-Sky-support-page.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1773161\" width=\"800\" height=\"342\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/media\/2022\/04\/Bigy-Sky-support-page.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/media\/2022\/04\/Bigy-Sky-support-page-300x128.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/media\/2022\/04\/Bigy-Sky-support-page-768x328.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>Click the image to visit Strymon&#8217;s BigSky support page<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Strymon BigSky Reverb - Cab Filter demo\" width=\"620\" height=\"349\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0BkPePRMbeQ?wmode=transparent&amp;rel=0&amp;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Strymon BigSky Reverb &#8211; Cab Filter demo<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Understanding Pedal Order\" width=\"620\" height=\"349\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/_Xl19g3zK8g?wmode=transparent&amp;rel=0&amp;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Understanding Pedal Order<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\"><a href=\"#Getting-started\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"button flat s blue\">Return to top<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"\" class=\"wp-block-cgb-block-customheader blackHeader alignLeft noUnderline customh2 swheader\"><strong>Sounds and presets<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container\">\n<p class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#fff5c7\"><strong>Important!
