Reverb Pedals

Reverb pedals create the reflections and decay that make a dry signal feel placed in a room, plate, spring or designed space. Room, hall, plate, spring, shimmer, freeze and ambient algorithms differ in density, pre-delay, modulation, tone and how the tail responds when bypassed. Analogue spring-style circuits have their own physical behaviour; digital designs can offer several spaces, presets and stereo routing. Keep an eye on mix and low-frequency decay so the effect does not cloud the rhythm section. Check spillover, trails and mono summing when choosing a model for a live board.

Mini Pedal

Uses a reduced-width enclosure to conserve pedalboard space. The smaller format can limit battery access, footswitch spacing and the number or size of controls, while side-mounted sockets and power placement determine how much space is actually saved once connected.
