posture Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 What would be the best bet for finding a hardware reverb unit for cheap, that doesn't sound like total ass. I don't like when reverb has too much noise associated with it. I just want it to be lush and warm sounding, thinking along the lines of the bass sound on the Aphex song Tha. Also where to look, and what to look for. I'm poor, so I have a cash converters (lol) a few minutes from my house where I see a lot of rack mount stuff so that's where I'd probably look first. Then I guess random mom and pop music shops/ebay/craigslist or something. I plan on using it with synths, and eventually one day with guitars so I can achieve my musical fantasy of making some droney space rock with Hawaiian style slide guitars. Thanks.

BCM Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 i take it from the cash converters thing, you're in the UK and not the US as your profile claims...anyway, just google "Zoom RFX-1100" and order it from the best price on line source. fuck buying music equipment from shops man - they are much much more expensive than on line places as a rule....

kakapo Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 You can get an Ensoniq DP2 for less than £100. You might even be able to stretch to a DP4+. Guitar studio multi-effects, used by just about everybody from Autechre to Daft Punk. The reverb on it is under-rated but very good.

soundwave Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 I can get some very lush reverbs from my Quadraverb 2, the other FX are a bit on the weak side but the reverbs are very comprehensive and can be routed to work in true stereo. Also the Boss RV 70 didn't sound bad for what it was and they can be had for peanuts these days.

The Alesis Nanoverb is alright. The reverb itself is kind of sketchy, and it's like 18 bit or something weird, but the delay is actually really cool.

Guest A/D Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 i got a used lexicon mpx-500 for $150. it is an excellent and very versatile reverb. stay away from the mx-200, even though it's usb-programmable, it's annoying as fuck to use. alternately, if you want one, i will sell you one for very cheap.

Berk Posted September 29, 2014 Report Share Posted September 29, 2014 My dad and I built a home made plate reverb years ago. It still needs some fine tuning, but the sound is beautiful. Just google DIY plate reverb and you'll find loads of info Spring reverbs can be had for cheap if you look at the right places. They are often built in in old mixers Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide Berk's signature Hide all signatures Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/40329-hardware-reverb/#findComment-2230280 Share on other sites More sharing options...
