But I'm quite surprised there hasn't been more enthusiasm for Strymon and Eventide here.
Oh well, I have great enthusiasm for my Strymon effects. But since you asked for the differences between the two manufacturers in your first post, I simply can't answer that (besides some pure technical thoughts which I shared). I never owned the Eventide pedals and can't judge if they would suit me better or not.
I simply love the BigSky's reverbs. Especially the "effect" reverbs like Shimmer and Cloud, but also the Chorale. But I also like the whole bunch of standard reverbs like spring, plate... you know the gang ;-)
The Strymons are the first external effects I own. All my other keyboards so far had internal effects that worked (more or less). My Rev2 was the first keyboard/synth that sucked in the effects section (at least for my needs... I'm not doing high quality studio work), but not because of the quality of single effects, but in the weird single-effect-per-layer-architecture. Even if I use Layer B as effects layer only, this is just not the same as having a proper effects chain, like all my other stuff has. But I simply love the Rev2 so much in every other way, that I wanted to beef it up with external effects, rather than selling it. And after watching all videos I could see and testing both Strymon and Eventide pedals at Thomann I decided for the Strymons just because of my personal taste. Perhaps my tweaking on the Eventide pedals was shitty, or something else... but I simple liked the Strymons better. But that was an opinion based on videos and a Test at Thomanns for about an hour with a guitar(!) not a synth ;-) But I'm absolutely happy until today, so what?
Enough history. I can add one positive argument: The parameters you can tweak for every algorithm of the BigSky are not very much and so the whole pedal is not overly complicated. With only a little knob twisting I get a very nice sounding reverb. Perhaps you could tell the difference to "better" reverbs in a studio environment, but not over a big PA or standard lo-fi consumer audio hardware like cheap headphones and smartphone/tablet/PC/speakers. And so I guess you wouldn't spot the difference between Eventide and Strymon either, if they are both tweaked to their best settings. But as always: this has to be tested in a proper evaluation environment and is just my personal opinion until someone is setting up a test ;-)
Basically the same goes for the Timeline and the Mobius... together they are building my holy Strymon Trinity ;-)
Perhaps not very much people are overly enthusiastic for one side, because they all know you won't make a mistake with either of them?
