Spring in a Hall/Room
chamav 03.04.2024
My experience in reverb pedals is very limited. My baseline for reverberation is the Accutronics reverb tank that my main combo amp has at home. Sometimes, I enhance the reverberation of the spring with an analog delay pedal (2-3 delays, 200ms, very low level).

The reason of purchasing a reverb pedal was to use with my new Fender Pro junior that has no reverb nor fx loop. A light setup to take with me at jazz jams. A light amp, a gig bag with the guitar and a few things to fit in the pocket like a strap, a cable, a patch cord, a clip tuner, and the smallest reverb pedal possible. It had to be small, light, work on battery and have low consumption. I chose the Prussian Blue.

It is small, it is very light (it is so light that when you put the battery you feel the difference), and has a consumption of 60mA, the lowest you can find for a digital pedal (Thomann needs to correct their description on that). It is nice, I wouldn’t call it a tank but it is solid, the buttons are a bit on the cheap side. I do not have any issues with the placement of the power input, i.e. an angled “Dunlop type” power connector and a patch cord with an angled relatively large HICON connector, fit fine both in horizontal direction.

Regarding the sound, I would call it a “Spring in a Hall/Room”. It has spring qualities, but they are placed in a “real” space. There is always a small pre-delay, something that a spring tank does not have. The reverb tails are somehow modulated, there is some kind of movement. Next to my compo amp with spring tank, it sounds similar but more customized in terms of volume, length and tone.

If you search for “natural” and subtle reverberation, I think it is a very good choice.

GO Eat some hats if u thnk this is bad " this is the one" (Zathras)
Thomas O. 713 01.11.2021
Super pedal , best designed reverb pedal I've come across so far , from plate to hall and more and never too indulgent but, always sounding great.
You can't make this sound bad no matter the setting. It can be very subtle or not but still be there and sound great and some how manages to not mess with the sound like all the others do, just envelopes it and adds to it. if you need to add a reverb to your amp/pedal board , give this a try you will never need another one . its also a very small pedal as well , if doesn't become a classic I'll have to eat some hats too .

Small but professional

For those like me, very fussy about reverb but not wanting a big expensive multi reverb, this keeps it simple and takes little space up. It is a versatile but simple and musical reverb. Not cheap and not cheap sounding.

El reverb perfecto
Gasps 12.11.2021
Después de haber probado muchos pedales de reverb y haberme siempre llevado una decepción tras otra, finalmente encontré esta joya (casi) desconocida!

Resumiendo, hay tres problemas principales con los reverbs en pedal para nosotros guitarristas:
1) Son demasiado predominantes (como pasa por ejemplo con el EHX Holy Grail Neo, que también al mínimo es muy muy "wet")
2) Se comen nuestro tono (sobre todo el ataque) que tanto luchamos y trabajamos para conseguir.
3) Tienen muchas modalidades (room, hall, church, spring…) pero ninguna parece nunca ser la perfecta.

Este pedal lo soluciona todo de forma conceptualmente sencilla.
Los primeros dos problemas son casi siempre debidos a la conversión analógico/digital/analógico de la señal limpia de nuestro sonido. Lo que hace este pedal es no convertir en absoluto la señal de entrada. Es decir, solo procesa digitalmente el efecto, dejando la señal analógica original intacta y con ella todo el tono y el ataque.

El tercer problema tiene a que ver con el hecho de que la mayoría de pedales quieran hacerlo todo pero no destaquen en nada. Este tiene solo UN sonido, que es el que buscan el 99% de los guitarristas en un reverb: una mezcla entre todas esas modalidades mencionadas antes, un reverb muy natural.

La única pega es que la toma de entrada está demasiado cerca de la entrada de alimentación y es imposible conectar un alimentador y un conector acodado ancho como los Hicon por ejemplo. Entiendo que la decisión fue necesaria para permitir el alojamiento de una batería en el pedal, pero 2mm más allá me habrían gustado más. Nada del otro mundo, solo hace falta emplear otro tipo de conector menos ancho.

Total que este pedal es el primer reverb que se queda en mi pedalera después de una búsqueda de 15 años!
