Never heard of these guys until I came across their Halo Chorus pedal:

[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

I've only found a few threads on their Memory Lane delay pedal, and that's about it. Seems like their stuff is hardly mentioned here on TB.

Anyone ever tried their pedals (especially the Halo Chorus) on bass? Reviews appreciated!
 
I can't give a full blown review, but I have tried their stuff. Really geat pedals, great build quality and what I think is the coolest feature... they encourage you to mod them. There is extra room built-in to the pedals for mods, and they offer them up on their websites for anyone who wants to take it on.
 
ive palyed the memory lane and the halo chorus... pretty damn nice, probably the nicest analog delay ive heard, and the chorus is great, big and thick chorus with stereo ins and outs... the LED trips em out, when its bypasses it fades in and out
 
Hmm... are those two worth the price, though, knobbin? That's what I'm curious about. They have hefty price tags!

depends i suppose.... the memory lane was REALLY nice analog sound, with dry and wet outputs(only 1 input), it had a wicked sound, and can go pretty crazy if you throw the delays into feedback, i find the price on it a bit too much for me... but it is a boutique pedal... and im not huge on getting true "analog" sound, ive been contemplating a DD-20 just because of all the great features and phrase looping capabilities... so really, if you want a true analog sound, its a great pedal, pretty damn pricey but that comes with most boutique pedals i suppose... as for the halo chorus, it was pretty wicked, love the true stereo ins/outs, and had a realy nice deep sound, but for the price i think a boss chorus would do the trick for me

How does the RRR compare to the Nova Reverb (I thought you had it at one point right?)

Good memory! :)

I didn't get to compare them side by side. If memory serves me...which is questionable these days...the Nova had more of a "clean" quality versus the more "organic" nature of the RRR. The versatility/tweakability is unmatched of course; the Nova wins hands down. But I was looking for a simple good sounding reverb for making solos sound more lush (need all the help I can get, know what I mean?), took a chance on the RRR, and it's treating me mighty kindly.
