behringer reverb machine?
Has anyone here tried one of these? I had never heard of it before this week, but Ive been exploring the world of super-cheap fx lately and this thing seems pretty impressive. It's even got a strymon-esque shimmer effect, and the verb sounds pretty good too from the demos I've watched. And its $40-$50 NEW.
I'm aware of the normal behringer turn offs like the cheap plastic construction and tone sucking buffered bypass, but I'm proficient enough in DIY to be able to deal with that. Anything else that should make me not want one of these? Anyone tried one?

They are actually pretty sturdy viewtopic.php?f=149&t=21367
Also the reverb machine is a direct clone of the line 6 verbzilla with the added bonus of not being noisy on a daisy chain. I never had any trouble with the bypass sucking tone or the verbs being anything than exactly like the line 6 version.

Awesome, good to know. I've never tried a verbzilla either, but I think this pedal is much more attractive looking aaaaaand its 1/3 of the price, so I'm pretty pumped about that. I think I'm definitely getting one of these, and I'm also considering picking up their analog delay ($25!) and possibly the pitch shifter/harmonist.

I have one. It's really good but I don't use it. I got it for my wife to use with her keyboard but that project is just not happening. It's been stepped on like zero times, PM me.

they are great pedals.
the ONLY reason i traded mine was because they were not being used in my guitar rig, and they just were not working properly in my texture rig. They are super sturdy and even at my heaviest, i never actually broke one on stage.
the echo machine and reverb machine are FANTASTIC.
i upgraded to the verbzilla when i found one locally for super cheap.

I just ordered the US600 pitch shifter/harmonist. I'll report back with a little review if you want.

I'll hold my order till you report back. I'm especially curious about how good the tracking is on this, and how well it plays with fuzz.
