It is a digital reverb. It has a single setting intesité of reverb, NQIA that a switch to select the mode of reverb: spring, hall or flerb (mixture of flanger and reverb).
The configuration could not be simpler.
The rule knob reverb in the mix the dry sound (direct sound without reverb) and the reverb itself ... In other words, if the drives have knob thoroughly, we get only the reverb, but for his "dry".

UTILIZATION

This could not be simpler to use. The manual is useless so use of the pedal is intuitive ... And even if it does nothing to register on the pedal, trust your ears and it'll be all alone ... <img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt="mrgreen" />

SOUND QUALITY

This is a digital reverb, but that sounds very ... "Analog". Obviously, we're not in the presence of a Lexicon studio, but the qualities of this pedal is undeniable ...
The effect can be very subtle, or conversely, very violent ...

Spring offers the user a very clear and bright reverb. We keep a good definition in the sound.
Hall is the mode when his much deeper. Maybe a little darker. The sound is a little less defined.
Mode Flerb notes in my opinion more of the story, although some adjustment is to have fun, kind atmosphere "The Cure", but in this case as to afford a Stereo Electric Mistress that will make the job much better. ..

Like all EHX pedals, spend a certain amount of effect, were obtained sounds completely barges but it is also what makes the charm of EHX effects ... <img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="biggrin" />

In any case, the resulting sounds are very rich ... This pedal is not a bestseller by accident, and it takes no more than 5 minutes to realize it ... I use the effects loop in my head RAT Electronics Handsome Devil: it beautifully embellishes the already very good to his head.

I am not 10, perfection is not of this world, but still, it sounds this pedal !!!!!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for some months and I will ever buy this without hesitation ... I urge all those who want a reverb that is not like a gas plant, and that also sounds great!! Compete buy eyes closed ...
