Strymon Cloudburst Ambient Reverb Pedal

Q: Does it come with a power cord?

No, power cord is not included.

Q: Has anyone tried this with synths?

I have not tried this pedal with synths, only guitar. However... In software, I have coupled synths with reverb plugins with functionality very similar to this Strymon pedal. So I can offer the following thoughts. The Strymon Cloudburst is particularly good at long, spacious, ambient-style reverbs. The pedal sounds glorious with guitar, especially when I put a volume pedal between the guitar and the pedal so as to provide gradual swells, very much like a synth. I would think that this pedal would also sound absolutely glorious with synths as well. Two pieces of advice I would offer, based partly on my experience with guitar+Cloudburst and partly on my experience with software synth+long-reverb. Both entail avoiding the final sound getting too dense and cluttered. First - one of the features of the Cloudburst is the "Ensemble" mode, which adds harmonic content to the output. It sounds more like a string or voice ensemble than a shimmer-type reverb. It's been my experience that if the input has a lot of harmonic overtone content (such as dense power chords with overdrive/distortion), when the Ensemble mode adds even more overtone content, the overall sound gets a bit thick and muddy (to my ears). So when choosing a synth sound as an input, I'd suggest opting for more harmonically simple base sounds rather than something that's already harmonically dense. Second - I find that guitar sounds that already have a lot of sustain (such as compression + distortion) can get cluttered when combined with the Cloudburst's long reverb tails. So I would imagine you'd experience something similar with a synth sound that has long decay. Obviously, your experience and preferences dictate your music. These are just my observations and hopefully they're somewhat helpful.
