Here is a quote from Malekko off another forum in reference to the Spring Chicken and the reverb they have coming next. Quote:
Thanks!
The other reverb will be the polar opposite of this, it is a digital analog hybrid.
It's the size of a memory lane has actual springs in it, plus digital presets.
It's about halfway done, but we have a few other things coming out first (not to mention those damn lazy robots making E616 and E919's)
so it's a bigger, more flexible, and probably a little less than double the cost.
hmmm, i gotta think of a name for it too!

Not the 616/919s since he mentions them and not the Holly Erectus since that has apparently been put on the backburner once again.
I'm guessing he's referring to more synth modules, but I'm hoping it's the Plaster Caster.
It also sounds like I may have to compare this reverb to the Dr. Scientist for my fretless board. I'd already own a RRR if they weren't backordered everywhere. Hell, PedalGeek says their NEXT shipment is already completely spoken for when it comes in June. |

If this new reverb sounds anywhere near as realistic as the Spring Chicken does then its worth buying is all I can say.

If this new reverb sounds anywhere near as realistic as the Spring Chicken does then its worth buying is all I can say. | I'm guessing this is directed at me and my recent reverb thread? Yeah, I've always been a big reverb fan, just not on bass. When I played a lot more guitar I was a little obsessed with springs. I recently discovered it's usefulness on bass though, and its got all sorts of ideas running through my head for old and new songs. I just wish I could get something like the Hardwire Reverb or the Verbzilla with an expression control. I'm leaning towards the spring chicken right now but I'm worried that it won't get as washed out as I want. I need some totally mushy indistinguishable notes available.
Have you used the SC gnasher? |

| Ditto. I just want to find out what it is. |

Plus I remember him mentioning that he'd won one of the original ones on eBay.
Hopefully we'll find out soon. |

Malekko should clone it. | *cough* the plastercaster *cough* NAMM *cough* *cough* | I think this is the only pedal I'm waiting for.
And here is the original thread: Mutron Octave Divider score

a) It's pink
b) It's got the tiniest footprint
c) It's got a chicken on it!
d) It's got one knob
e) It's got a chicken on it!
What more can you want?! But no, I haven't played it. The only shop in England (that I know of) that stocks Malekko products (Vintage and Rare Guitars) doesn't seem to have even acknowledged its release. So in the mean time until they do, I (along with many others) shall be playing the frustrating waiting game...

I'm not so sure. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
