I don't know much about reverb, but I know this's one of the best thread titles I've seen in a long time.

I don't know but I like the stuff on your bandcamp.

What about building a valve powered spring reverb?

You could build a short brick rub a dub and feed it into the long brick one!

The bricks are kinda clever, but there's not a heck of a lot of territory they'll cover.

The Spin FV-1 chip is a wide open and powerful world of DSP, but I don't have time to figure out how to program that stuff. Someone might have open-sourced some cool algorithms by now, though. DIYstompboxes has a DSP forum that may have some other options of note.

The Tenebrion from http://www.grindcustomsfx.com/ could be worth looking into. I have a populated board awaiting boxing up and I'm hoping to post a demo in a week or so...

skully - THAT would be interesting to try! I already have the long brick from my rub a dub and a medium brick (maybe it's a short) from BYOC's reverb. double reverb crazyness.

ALTHOUGH.. that tenebrion sounds nice.. i think i'll get one of those just for the hell of it
