Reverb recommendations w/small footprint

[mmbongo]

I know it's an older thread, but if you're looking for a small, awesome sounding reverb TC just released the Hall Of Fame Mini.

I actually have both a hall of fame mini and nimbus on the way. I can report back if people care.

I settled on Neunaber Stereo WET and TC Trinity (basically a Hall of Fame w/ other presets).
Both amazing pedals for bass, though Nimbus is absolutely killer with the filter knob. SO. MUCH. BASS.

I care. I think the nimbus will beat it out hands down but I'd still like to know how the HOL stacks up to the big and bad IE.

When they come in, I'll run some demos. Anything in particular you'd like to hear?

I also have a nimbus on the way...my first shot at reverb so we'll see how it goes!

Reverb sounds like overkill for the bass, but it can really add a little depth when you are playing something downtempo. Or, if you play any kind of music where interludes are common, it can help you to mesh with the other reverb laden instruments. You won't need it til you've had it

I'd love to see screenshots of the toneprint software when attached to the HOF mini .... sounds like it should be configurable to the nth degree, but without screen shots it's hard to tell.

I'll do what I can

Has anybody here tried the DR. Green Bass reverb. I see one at Bassefx.com, it looks interesting. Very small with jacks on top, but what does it sound like?

Mini hof came today. Comparison soon to follow

Uploading to soundcloud. If it comes to it, I can certainly Do a more in depth review of the hall of fame. Fact is, from the factory, it'd sound great on guitar. I don't feel the same about it on bass. In short, It seems like more effort than it's worth to program that toneprint when you can coax amazing sounds out of 4 knobs in 10 minutes or less. That being said, I do intend to set up a crazy modulated 'verb and use the TC solely for that, I just wouldn't use it as my main reverb pedal. Brief sound clips to follow.

Also, the requested screenshot of the HoF mini interfacing with the toneprint editor:

So in short, you would've probably been happier with the hall of fame full pedal? Aside from the nimbus of course

And Sound clips!

I was quite happy with my 4 knob Hall Of Fame... but I knew it would sell in a hurry, and I "had" to fund an el capistan

these things happen.

Thanks .... I think I can make sense of about 1/2 those controls. I guess I'll have to see if I can find a manual for the rest.

Have you any idea if it will do the same 'filter' trick as the nimbus ? That is, applying reverb to only the top end, not to the bass ?

Another tiny one that works great on guitar is the Malekko Spring. Haven't tried it on bass, though.

Okay, found the [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]. Looks like it may not do reverb on the high frequencies only. Looks like something close might be done with HiColor and LoColor though, I wish the descriptions of those two controls were a bit clearer.

The TonePrint editor does not have a filter like the Nimbus does. The editor is awesome, but it misses one critical feature IMO, and that is modulation.
