All user reviews for the Line 6 Verbzilla

The algorithm "OCTO" is used to reproduce the "Shimmer" The Edge (U2). Everyone thinks that "With or Without You," "All I Want Is You" and "Sometimes You Can not Make It On Your Own" have a track "synthesizer", but the "shimmer" that comes from his guitar and is the original sound mix. Edge uses an Eventide HE-3000 and expression pedals and "shimmer" comes out of his Fender Blues Junior amp. With Verbzilla you can reproduce the same sound for 5% of the price. On the site you can cost a https://www.line6.com/tonecore/verbzilla.html pieces (SOUNDS: octo).

OVERALL OPINION

Last few days.
I bought specially for the purpose "OCTO".
Great quality great price.

Numriques sounds, but is great, as good as the analog

UTILIZATION

This rverb contains:
One-button "mix" which determines ke rverbration level in the signal. On the left you have all the dry signal and starboard, a 100% signal rverb (no dry signal).
One-button "decay" that Sets the decay time of rverbration to silence.
One-button time which determines the delay time rverbration signal from the signal.
One-button "tone" which determines the tonality of rverbration and will signal a dark, subtle and brilliant rverb CLAT.
Slecteur-a "trail", enable it to allow the treatment Verbzilla end and keep the drop rverb when you cut the effect

The manual is well done, the evidence I have copied the pitch from above.

against by the time you have to take home for the right amount rverb, has quickly become one if its rough, but just do not rush your rglages.

SOUND QUALITY

Many choices! Ac and great, I put the list below:
- "Spring 63" bassur a spring rverb de1963. Ideal for guitar sounds rtro.
- "Spring" spring rverb
- "Flat" like the spring. rsonance mtallique
- "Room": simulates the acoustics of a room Properties
- "Chamber": rverb like a corridor or stairwell
- "Hall": simulates a concert hall
- "Ducking" but attnuations rverb hall, the volume is rverb attnu as you play and increases when you arrtez.
- "Octo" rverb followed by a kind of lightweight synthbr /> - "cave": rverb cavernous
- "Tile" rflexions simulates the acoustics of a pice as TILED bathroom
- "Echo": guess! (Not required if you have the Line 6 Echo Park)

OVERALL OPINION

I've had four months and I'm not the tt
I would do the same choice if I were to buy a rverb.

Effect "Rverbe" numrique (modlisation).
Used in mono or stereo (2 channels indpendants).
11 DIFFERENT types of rverbe, adjustable but not ditables.
Rglages:
- Tonalitbr /> - mix (dry / wet)
- Decay (duration of rverbration)
- Time (dcalage between the original signal and the rverbration beginners)

Option "Trails" when it is active: can, when you cut the effect by pressing the footswitch, to complete rverbrations that Get You Started by support.

Connections:
- 6mm between two jacks
- 2 output jacks 6mm
- Power connector compatible with the Boss power supplies (9V, the collection's outdoor +).

Foctionne battery or a spare power supply (see above).

UTILIZATION

Config simple.
Rglages easy and intuitive (it's not a witch rverbe).
Manuel trs clear, with examples of rglages.

SOUND QUALITY

Trs effective trsralistes effects.
Sound transparency apparently correct (I did not use enough to realize dj but much better than the Holy Grail that I brought to the store ...).
No noise (except in "ducking" but it is not much) or breath (that's the problem I brought the Holy Grail after two days ...).

I use the pedals with a Gibson Melody Maker and prampli Lag TL1 Spitfire or a Fender Pro Jr amp (no effects loop ...).

I prfre modes "Spring" "Chamber" "Hall" (as the classic). Hall on the mode, in particular, transparency is much better than the Holy Grail.

This rverbe me parat trs so versatile, and in addition it is stro (no scenic effects, but 2 channel spars).

OVERALL OPINION

I just buy it.

I like DIFFERENT rglages simple but complete absence of noise and transparency.

The particular feature I like least: the look (futuristic tank ...).

I tried the Electro Harmonix Holy Grail to me seems almost unusable except in "spring" on the stroke of half the knob (much less take a Danelectro CHRE this account l.

Good quality price, especially when Whereas it is Stereo.

I would do this choice because the pedals trs is versatile and efficient.

Does everything said before.
9 because the look thank you very much, the shuffled between a pedal and a tank miniaturized plastic, rather like using rsultat. But hey, it's the sound that counts (you just need to hide when you play after all!)

UTILIZATION

Configuration is very simple, and rich enough. There are not 36 buttons, and there is everything you could ask for reverb pedals.
The edition of the sounds is very simple, and with 11 prvus effects, there is necessarily happiness.

SOUND QUALITY

The effects are very practitioner. We spend the rverb rtro, the small traditional reverb, big rverbs endless and deep. Everything you need. The rendering is gnial. Nothing wrong. The effect "Octo" is original, but he seems not exploitable. But hey, why not

OVERALL OPINION

I bought it yesterday. I walked into my store of pedals, I said I needed a reverb pedals' less than 200. Immediately, I was rpondu "Verbzilla".
I t's not the rsultat. Much better than the one I had tried before. Line 6 did a great job!

PDAL of reverbration Stereo, numrique technology. Look the image of the brand clbre modlisation: modern, imposing and half plasticized.

<span style="text-decoration: underline;">4 rglages:</span>
_Mix: Determines the effect level in the signal. In some ways the end position of knob acts as a "boost" the effect of reverb and passes the incoming signal.

_Decay: Sets the decay time of reverbration to silence. Feedback on what.

_TIME: Determines the delay time of 10ms 200 ms. dcalage the cheeks between the notes and rsonance of reverb. In some ways, time has rgl background, a delay occurs on the attack of the notes, I find no evil.

_Tone: Adjusts the tonality of rverbration. On a bright but dark rverbe rglage is relatively thin.

Trails Switch + 1 - Turn it on to leave the treatment of Verbzilla end and keep the fall and "trail" of rverb when you turn off the effect.

2 inputs, 2 outputs.

<span style="text-decoration: underline;">11 reverb modes:</span>
Spring '63 - Fender Rverb spring of 1963. rtro so.

Spring - Rverb spring.

Plate - Rverb plate. Prscdente porch.

Room - Simulates the Rverbration a bedroom (pice) of cho classic

Chamber - Rverbration produced in an elongated like a hallway, a stairwell or elevator shaft.

Hall - Simulates the sound into a concert hall or a large area producing a significant drop rverbration: a gymnasium, an auditorium or cathedral.

Ducking - Rverbration "Hall" but attnuation. The volume is rverbration attnu ("ducked") as you play and increases when you arrtez.

Octo - Cre a rverbration important to add that an approaching cloud of harmonics of the pitch shifter effect or even a synth. Modlise effect Shimmer Te Edge.

Cave - Rverbration cavernous Irrel. Variant of the Hall.

Tile - Emulates the acoustic rflexions a pice TILED as a bathroom with separate primary rflexions clearer and brighter.

Echo - As the name implies, a short time: echo effect.

UTILIZATION

Setup is simple. Quibble with the button "mode" o it is sometimes difficult to discern the effect of more select patterns are written so small ...
The mix allows rglage limit the effect to pass before the signal dry, cool
I have no problem buzz unlike what can be heard on the whims of the ToneCore. Yet I use it via a string line feeding effects <span style="text-decoration: underline;">and</span> effects loop. Phew function.

SOUND QUALITY

Numrique technology captures the effects of service dimensions: your exact and trs is clean
. It is obvious that it's modlisation and therefore consquent say vintage sounds REALLY not sound as such. I find it that there is sometimes a lack of Difference between the sound modes on offer.
Not so warm and organic, but the East rverbe "digital".
The use Stereo is a big plus.

OVERALL OPINION

Personally I use it for small rverbe trs, the "Tile" is also given as a color INTERESTED particulire the size of the rverbration, and for r verbs deep and spacious "Hall" & "Cave".
This is my PDAL Premire of rverbe, I can not compare too much from the competition: essentially the Boss RV-5 or RV-3, and DigiTech HardWire the rcemment.

The verbzilla is another in Line 6's series of small stomp boxes meant to digitally emulate classic sounds. It has stereo 1/4" inputs and outputs, 9v dc in, 5 parameter knobs, and a switch to turn trails on or off. There are 11 reverb models including spring, plate, room, chamber, ducking, hall, cave, octo, tile, and even an echo capable of short delay repeats. All this is in an enclosure that seems to weigh as much as a brick.

UTILIZATION

Set-up and dialing in a sound are a breeze on this pedal. There are no sub menus or anything to navigate. One dial controls which model you are using and the others are self explanatory as to how they change the sound. The manual is well written and clears up any questions you might have about the parameter adjusting. Really the only thing most people might not immediately grasp is the "time" knob since it's something you would more often see in an echo unit.

SOUND QUALITY

I used the verbzilla in a pretty large pedal board set-up for guitar. The bypass on the pedal was okay and it didn't color the sound too much when on or off. In a set-up the size I was working with it's kind of difficult to figure out exactly what is changing your tone and really if you need purity you would probably be better off with an actual spring unit as this box is better suited for the wilder side of reverb.The pedal can also clip when used in a hot effects loop which may be a deal breaker for some.

I spent most of my time with the octo and cave settings as they were the deepest sounding reverbs. The octo sound is what some might refer to as a "shimmer" sound. It is a very large reverb with some pitch shifting that adds a very eerie upper octave in the background. Cave is exactly what you might imagine by the name. Just think of yelling into a huge cave and that's what this model does. Just a huge reverb that can make odd chords sound very dark. The more traditional reverbs were okay but with my limited experience with reverbs even I have found better options for spring and hall sounds.

OVERALL OPINION

If you are looking for a wide variety of sounds without breaking the bank or using up too much space on a board you should give this pedal a shot. It was perfect for me at the time as I don't use too much reverb and mainly wanted the more wild sounds anyway. If what you want is a very authentic reverb sound with a perfectly clear bypass then look else where. You would probably be happier with one of the malekko reverbs or something like an actual spring unit or top of the line lexicon. I owned the pedal for a few years and never had any real problems with it. I eventually just realized that I didn't really need a reverb with all the delays I have so I sold it. Sometimes I miss the cave and octo settings so I might get another someday just to have around.

Model Switch
This switch is used to select from 11 distinctly different types:

* '63 Spring - Based on* a Fender 1963 brown spring reverb head unit. Best known for great surf guitar tone!
* Spring - Based on a studio spring reverb.
* Plate - Based on a studio plate reverb.
* Room - Simulates the acoustic properties of a classic echo chamber that consists mainly of early reflections.
* Chamber - An elongated ambient space such as a hall, stairwell or elevator shaft creates this reverb type. Dreamy.
* Hall - Simulates the sound of a concert hall or large open space with a strong reverb tail. Imagine a gymnasium, performance hall, or cathedral.
* Ducking - Built using a 'Hall' but with a ducking effect. The volume of your reverb is "ducked" (reduced) while you're playing, and increases when you stop. This allows for clean musical passages with a touch of reverb that ramps up in volume once you stop playing.
* Octo - Creates a lush, ambient space with a harmonized decay whose harmonic denseness is controlled by the time knob. Use volume swells and prepare to float on a cloud!
* Cave - Surreal cavernous echo chamber.
* Tile - Emulates the acoustic reflections of a tiled room, such as a bathroom with bright early reflections.
* Echo - Just like it says ...echo...echo...echo.

Mix
Allows you to control the amount of reverb in your signal from dry to 100% wet.

Decay
Controls how quickly the reverb tail fades to silence.

Time
Controls the length of pre-delay. This is the amount of delay before the signal hits the reverb chamber.

Tone
Allows you to adjust the tonal character of the reverb, giving you the flexibility to go from dark and subtle to bright and splashy.

Trails Switch
When switched on, Verbzilla's processing is engaged while in bypass, so reverb smoothly trails away when you kick the effect off.



UTILIZATION

This is a very good pedal. Not too sure if it's underrated and I know it's famous not for it's reverb, though I do think the reverb is quite good the verbzilla is more famous (to me at least) for the octo setting. this is the famous sounds you hear on U2 records that the edge produces with more expensive equipment and this is also the primary reason i purchased this pedal! I'm not a HUGE reverb fan, except when it's on clean and when I use effects I generally like to use sort of the more extreme settings as an actual EFFECT. As opposed to some subtle noise to enhance a guitar's tone or whatnot.

I haven't any need for the manual since it's pretty easy to use. The trails option makes the pedal very organic sounding and transitions the effects in and out more smoothly for the song to seem more..natural.

SOUND QUALITY

As I said before, I'm not a big reverb fan so it's hard for me to tell what is GOOD reverb and what is BAD reverb. To me, it generally all sounds the same and quite good.

The octo setting, however is great! The mix knob allows me to put in as much of the octo signal as i want which is great also depending on the song. It is apparently true bypass also which is good, and again though it's not really the sound, but the trails option is great.

I have to say that I'd be using this pedal mainly for the octo setting and thus the review is based accordingly so.

OVERALL OPINION

Overall it's a good pedal for the octo setting. the reverbs are good as well and good emulations that they say they are. However I'm not a reverb fanatic so i cannot say if this is the best reverb pedal ever. But I know that most people that own this pedal use it for the octo setting 80% of the time and not the 'verb. So I'm giving it a good review because of the octo setting. It's also a reliable looking pedal, very heavy and sturdy looking. I haven't gigged with it yet but it seems to be very tough. Knock on wood.

The Verbzilla is a stereo digital reverb pedal with plenty of features. It has stereo ins and outs a 9VDC adapter and has a pretty unique build. The switch feels a bit weak, but it's taken all my abuse so far. It has 5 knobs and a trail switch to let the reverb trail off after it is disengaged, which is really nice.

UTILIZATION

This pedal is pretty amazing. Very tweakable and extremely useful. The five knobs are mix, decay, time, tone and the mode selector. It has 11 reverb modes: '63 Spring, Spring, Plate, Room, Chamber, Hall, Ducking, Octo, Cave, Tile and Echo. It's a very simple pedal to understand and you can get very wide ranges of reverb out of this pedal.

SOUND QUALITY

I used this particular reverb for my guitar only. But i'm sure it would be capable of doing vocals well too. I really like the '63 spring, cave and octo modes a lot. The shimmery octo mode is a lot of fun for creating soundscapes and tracks pretty fast. The Cave mode is really cool, with long decay and time with a pretty high mix it can seem to last forever. Really great for clean passages and ambient stuff. The '63 spring mode is super close to a real spring reverb and has fantastic response. I could go on and on. Very awesome sounding pedal.

OVERALL OPINION

For the price, it is an incredible buy. It has loads of features and sounds incredible. I tried a few different reverbs out before settling on this one. It just sounds fantastic. The cave sound is a very unique sound that is only found on Line 6's gear if I remember correctly. It's my favourite setting on the pedal. I'd recommend this to anyone looking for a cheap, very simple and great sounding reverb.

The Line 6 Verbzilla is a digital reverb pedal. It has 1/4 inch inputs and outputs and is not rackable as it is a stomp box. It has ten different types of reverbs and four parameters to control them. It has a wide variety of reverb sounds and easy to use overall.

UTILIZATION

The setup of this pedal is extremely easy, as is getting a good sound out of it. It has five knobs total - one for to choose the type of reverb, one for tone, one for time, one for decay, and one of mix. These controls are basic and manipulating it is quite easy. Some of the types of reverbs include hall, chamber, gate, spring, and plate. I don't have a manual for this pedal, but have never had a use to look into getting one.

SOUND QUALITY

The sound quality of the effects on this pedal are top notch. I have only used this with guitar - usually a Schecter Ultra III and a '76 Fender Twin Reverb. With this set up I am able to get some great reverbs from this pedal. Being that it has ten different types of reverbs, the pedal has the capability of getting a number of different types of reverb sounds. My favorite reverbs on this pedal are the plate and the chamber effects. This is a high quality pedal with a number of very usable reverb sounds.

OVERALL OPINION

I've been using the Line 6 Verbzilla for two years. I have found it to be an above average reverb pedal because of the overall sound quality and its ability to get a vast number of different types of reverbs. I would compare this pedal to a Boss RV-5, as both have a similar price and overall capabilities. It is hard for me to choose between both pedals, as I think both are great options. The Verbzilla has great tone quality and it won't break the bank. It has a sleek design and its versatility makes it a great all purpose reverb pedal.
