Cheap reverb for vocals

[seanm]

I am looking for a cheap reverb for vocals. The singers always want reverb and I don't always have it. They are used to the cheap digital reverb built into small mixers, so it does not need to be high end.

Has anybody used, say a Boss guitar reverb for vocals?

If you're doing PC recording, there's some amazingly good free VST plugins. For example:

Thanks, but this is actually mixing live. I put it in the Recording forum since I figured more people here would have experience with vocals.

And for the reverb, bonus points if it works well with bass.

The BOSS could work.

You can still pick up Alesis NanoVerbs on eBay for cheap. They're pretty good. Like say...I dunno, $60-$80 used. Something like that.

Alesis MicroVerb.

Super cheap on eBay. Great sound.

Check it out...

The lexicon "Alex" model, has some very nice sounds,
and can be found (used) for stupid low prices.

I pulled the trigger on a NanoVerb. I choose the nano over the micro due to size. I like the idea of being able to just throw it in the gig bag to use when needed.

Plus it looks dead simple to use. Hey, I am not a sound guy, I just play one in real life.

That looks even cooler than the NanoVerb. Even I would have trouble screwing that up
