Ghost Echo is legit for sure. I just got an RV-3 in a trade yesterday. Digging it.

RV3 is definitely a good option
Tweaking the reverb/delay settings can get some cool sounds

Love that Boss micro-rack stuff. The pitch shifter delay is bangin'.

i had a reverb machine. it was a replacement many years ago for my verbzilla (which i LOVED) when it suddenly started to output only white noise... derp
the behringer was totally fine and sounded more or less exactly the same as the verbzilla, but without a doubt the bypass was weird and shitty. there was a really slight delay when you would turn it on which drove me nuts and the buffer on it was crap and would suck a lot of high end (obviously not true bypass). cheap though, so it's got that going for it i guess.

dang thats shitty about the bypass. i guess i shouldn't be surprised. i read that if you turn the trails off it sounds better? oh well. will have to see for myself.

thanks dude!

Red Panda Context ordered. The demos just sound too damn good.

I also have the Ghost Echo, but i find it not deep enough for my use. Also the short delay is annoying to me, and if I tune it out, there is very little reverb..
But its good at what it does.

Reverb is the hardest thing to get right I think. All the ones I have tried have felt a bit weird.
Currently using RRR but it also sound " fake" to me.

I tried the Ghost Echo for awhile and it was that little bit of delay that didn't work for me. The Disaster Transport is brilliant for the long cavernous sounding verb but I didn't like anything on the shorter spectrum out of that pedal. The RRR is a fantastic sounding reverb except it's missing any sort of decay control beyond the toggle switch. I've owned two of them already and just don't know if it's worth trying it again. If Ryan changed the decay toggle to a pot that would just about do it for me. I've tried the Line 6 verbs when I owned an M13 and there were only a few setups that I found useable. Most just sounded to "manufactured/digitally". So next up is the Red Panda Context. The demos sound incredible. The reviews have all been great. So it's worth a shot... and it saves me $100 since I'm not trying out the Strymon Bluesky (yet). We'll see. I'm hoping this Context pedal is everything I have my hopes up for.

Agreed Ben.
Hope you enjoy the context.

I think also with reverb is that I can get it from my amp and its hard for a pedal to mimick exactly what my amp does.

I love my Boss RV3, but I only really ever use it for plate sounds.

Verbzilla is definitely a good option.

That OK Computer comment now has me gasing for a Ghost Echo :facepalm:
