bubs_42 Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 I was going to pick up a Mooer Echoverb for rehearsal. I don't need any drive pedals, but I miss having that little delay on my guitar. I also never thought I would miss reverb, but dammit my Orangutan Jr. has it and i'm in love with it. Then the other guitar player brought in a single knob reverb pedal to put in front of his amp 2 weeks again and damn if it doesn't sound good.

Biz Prof Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Look for a used HOF or a Boss RV-5. Their versatility is worth the footprint. My RV stays on at all times. I toggle between the Spring, Hall, and Mid settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubs_42 Posted December 29, 2017 Author Share Posted December 29, 2017 But I want an "Both in one" kind of pedal. I just want to velcro in my rehearsal amp with a one power supply (thats all I have). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugartune Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Keeley 30ms. Reverb/Delay, Automatic Double Tracking, etc. Very cool. I tried a Keeley Caverns for a bit too. Two sided, both switchable delay/reverb. I thought it sounded great through all the settings, but its footprint was too big for my board real estate, and the delay portion was redundant with the Echosystem. Plus the 30ms is just fantastic for my needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fake News. That has 3 knobs ....unless you want to call those trim pots? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakeboy Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 I have never been a verb guy, but I picked up a Lovepedal HSR3 recently and man that thing sounds incredible. I sold a Strymon Flint due to non-use and I cannot stop using this HSR. I will use it while recording. it sounds so good, I’ll dial in a tone and commit right there on the way in.

sixesandsevens Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 It's probably overkill for what you described, but the Strymon El Capistan is a great, flexible tape echo combined with a totally usable spring reverb emulation. It's the only both-in-one pedal I've used outside of a multifx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
velorush Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 I bought this both-in-one. No presets, but it does an amazing number of things very well. Got it used at CME for a really great price. Does all of this and the box is only 4.5" X 3.25": Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

e-isle rock Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Neunaber Wet Reverb stereo or mono. Both sound outstanding. Mono version go pretty cheap used on Ebay or Reverb. https://neunaber.net/collections/pedals/products/wet-mono-reverb-v4 As for delays, the Tech 21 DLA delay sounds really good. I like the drift you can get with the delay as it adds kind of a chorus effect. The Neunaber Echelon is also a really good delay mono or stereo and does the dotted eighth thingy and some other cool stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakeboy Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 I briefly had a Neunaber Wet years ago. It was simple and simply great. I was anti-pedal at that point and moved it on. I loved how easy it was to dial in.....the Lovepedal HSR is similar in that regard and so is the room Reverb on the Keeley Memphis Sun pedal. I used the Sun of all of my guitar tracks on the AC Rev album just so I could get that vibe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you turned it one it made you sound like your amp was in THAT room not just in a room. I just didn't dig it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not an everyday verb like the HSR is....but when you want THAT sound.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rugby1970 Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 I use the Guyatone MR2. A couple of folks here turned me on to it and I haven't looked back. A little hard to find and can be a bit expensive but simple to operate and sounds good to my ears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just really looking for a two in one pedal just to give me a little something so things are not so dry. I think the Mooer is the way to go, but of course that is the only one I can't find used.

JES1680 Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 I had been looking for a good spring type reverb pedal that uses a 9volt vs having to be plugged in. I have a soul mate spring verb on my pedal board but it's not exactly portable. Found the J Rocket Boing. One knob, battery powered, kinda reminds me of the Holy Grail, but without all the noise mine had. Like it so much my Soul Mate is now on the shelf.

Nail on the head with the EH Stuff, just find them too noisy. I have not used the J Rockett, but its on my radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomteriffic Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 You might try this: https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/FlashbackMini in front of this: https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/HOFMini Not much more than a standard pedal real estate-wise, tolerable but not great price. I've been happy with the TC stuff for decades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thundersteel Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Both of my amps have tube-driven spring reverb--no pedals needed! I will not buy an amp without reverb--to me, they sound odd without it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
