Re: Reverb pedals - what are my choices?

I'm checking out the Eterna and the Super Natural right now. I'm definitely leaning more towards the Super Natural - anyone who's had both of them care to explain how the difference in the "liveliness" knob and the "shimmer"? I kind of understood the "liveliness" to be a tone control whereas the "shimmer" was simply like a flutter type one?

Does anyone find either pedal to be noisy? I don't mind a bit of noise but generally would prefer it quiet so I can add the noise from another source.

The longest I've had any pedal
Really versatile and sounds good always

Backing this hard. Plenty of black hole to be had as well. Feature-wise and control-wise it's the only thing that can really compete with the Space (I have both).

Yeah, I love my Trinity too, the cathedral E1 patch is nearly a delay, but not, but just... :love: .
I haven't edited any tone prints yet, but its a freakin revelation that that has happened. Actually, I might get the software now! :joy:

Yup, they're that good.
Also tech21's RVB is worth a look, very wide range of 'verb and pretty cheap...

I've already tried the Boost RVB and I really like it but I want a few more options than that. I already have great reverb with my Matamp and Swart. I'm just looking for something as flexible as the RV3 but not so concerned with the delay options... just would like something with a tone control so I can get both bright trashy reverb as well as darker reverb, some chorused verb, infinite or near infinite decay, possibly reverse options...

That's why I've pretty much settled on the Super Natural as it offers all that in spades except for the reverse (unless there's a way to do it that isn't specifically in the functions?) but that isn't needed especially when I can get both dark/bright. The black hole reference as most of you have replied was in reference to the decay - I need to learn to be less wanky with my descriptions but I'm in a foreign country so my English is stretched at times and just use the first word that pops in my head ^-^

I think your english is pretty damn good for being stretched...I know native speakers who aren't nearly as eloquent...
That Supernatural looks pretty slick. I have to say I didn't expect a lot from the Hardwire DL8 I bought recently, but that thing has really impressed me for the money.

Thanks! I am kind of considered native - have lived in Australia for 16 years - but now that I've gone back overseas and had to relearn two other languages just to be able to converse with family I find it hard to think of words and just pull whatever corny line out due to "hear-say" when I should know better than do that (i.e. "Black hole" when I actually mean infinite, or near infinite, decay). Thanks heaps for the compliment anyway but I'm sure after you read that I've lived in an English speaking country for most of my life now you'll probably want to take that back :poke: :hug:

It just doesn't have the options I need and the board can only fit one as much as I'd like two :(

Anyway guys I've just ordered a Super Natural using one of those %15 off coupon things. Worst case scenario I flip it and move on to another and continue to use my M9 in the mean while off the board. :excellent:
