Trey Anastasio Takes the Ventris Dual Reverb on the Road.

Picture
This is very exciting – we recently learned from reliable sources the Trey Anastasio added a pair of Ventris Dual Reverbs to his live rig. The pedals will be on the road with him during his spring and summer dates with the Trey Anastasio Band (click here for TAB tour dates) as well as some Phish dates coming later this summer (Phish tour dates). We have several HARDCORE Phish and Trey fans here at Source Audio, so the entire building is abuzz.
 
Trey’s latest rig was fully documented by Ryan Chiachiere over at TreysGuitarRig.com. TGR is a kind of unofficial/official website focused on Trey’s rigs through the years (click here to check out the TreysGuitarRig.com report on the current set-up). It really is very interesting how the two Ventris Reverbs have been implemented into the current rig. Trey runs two Komet Trainwreck 60 Amps connected to two Komet Ambikab speaker cabs. The Ambikabs were designed specifically to run time-based effects and maintain complete separation between the guitar’s dry and wet signals.

Each Ambikab contains two 12” speakers, two 10” speakers, and its own effects loop complete with a dedicated stereo power amp.  Trey runs two Ventris Dual Reverbs as well as a pair of Way Huge Supa-Puss Delays in the loops. The good people at Ambikab describe the process as follows; “AmbiKab allows the amplifier to directly drive a set of guitar speakers (“dry signal”) without any effects added directly to it. A portion of this dry signal is then split off by the AmbiKab’s internal circuitry and sent out into an effects unit. From there, a 100% effects signal (“wet signal”) is fed back into the AmbiKab where a separate, internal stereo power amplifier sends the signal to a dedicated stereo set of speakers.” (Check out the Komet website for more info) That is some serious amplifier/cab technology. 

Ultimately it was the Ventris and its True Spring and Plate reverb engine that made it into Trey’s rig. It is no secret that quality spring reverb effects are very difficult to capture in a pedal – the sound of the Ventris’ spring reverb engine was the result of months of research and development. The work that Bob Chidlaw – Source Audio’s Chief Scientist - put into the development of the Ventris’ spring sound is well documented in the video below.
Bob Chidlaw talks about spring reverb and the Ventris Dual Reverb's True Spring engine.
