«  Superb »

Published on 05/27/11 at 01:48
Format digital reverb pedal. Very good build quality, beautiful blue brushed aluminum finish.
Stereo inputs and outputs, it can treat 2 independent mono signals.
2 footswitches: 1 on / off true bypass + 1 to call your favorite setting, so 2 settings available in the foot.
Note: the dry signal from the guitar is not converted to digital, avoiding degradation.
Negative point: providing a power supply providing DC 9V 300mA

UTILIZATION

The settings are intuitive being many for a pedal.

3 position switches # 1:
- Normal (aptly named)
- Mod (with reverb signal modulation type Chorus)
- Schimmer (reverb signal modulation type with octave, very fun)

3 position switches # 2:
- Room
- Flat
- Spring

Knob: Decay for the length of reverberation, Mix for the amount of processed signal from the dry signal, Predelay to delay the start of the effect,
High Damp Low Damp and filters are highpass and lowpass for "tinting" the reverb signal.

SOUND QUALITY

Sound quality above all suspicion. Transparency or heat depending on settings. Everything is possible, the reverb type toilet in his cathedral, always respecting your dry signal.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 8 months, she has not left my pedalboard. Like all pedals of the same brand (I also chorus and flanger), is from my point of view what is the best format pedal sound quality and adjustability. If I lose, I bought it, I have not tried better. The only drawback is the lack of power supply.
