Three? Sure. Easy.
That's just in the rack.
Not counting multis or what may be on the board as a dedicated pedal or three or amps.

I need more verb! Have mine second in the chain, only preceded by fuzz. Need another for right before delay, and then ideally amp verb for after everything. Sadly, no amp reverb now either.

No such thing as to much reverb or delay.

I thought I had kind of overkill reverb, but I realize now that I totally need more. I have an early cathedral, which I mostly use in conjunction with distortion (I find that colder/more digital reverbs work great with that), for MBV-ish reverse reverb stuff and it also doubles as a freeze pedal (infinite mod thing). Then there are a few delays between that and my eventide space, which I really use for all other reverb applications. Oh, and there is reverb on the el Capistan as well, but I mostly don't use it. I have an RV-3, and a liquid ambience on my want list.

I get by with a Space on my board. Thanks for making me feel reasonable.
I have another reverb pedal though (Walrus Descent) that I keep around. And don't tell anyone, but sometimes I just stack more verb onto my verb with plug-ins in post. SHHHHH.

For my first solo show I had a pedalboard with 9 delay pedals on it. All of them were turned on at once and in a Boss LS-2 with a volume pedal for swells. And there was at least one other delay in the chain.
One of my favorite chains is Afterneath->Make Noise Erbe-Verb (sometimes with the Size parameter modulated by random voltages). At the longest show I ever played I spent about twenty minutes doing ambient Moog Guitar noodles into the Erbe-Verb and a TipTop Audio Z-DSP with the Halls of Valhalla reverb card in parallel. It was like snuggling with Freyja on a cloud of pure bliss.

Three reverbs is a good starting point I think.

FYI, Amazon has the Supernatural for $130, which is $20 lower than anywhere else I can find it.
I currently have 0 reverbs, and I think that is about to change.
I'm trying to decide between the Supernatural and the Polara. They seem to be similar. The Polara (identical reverbs as the RV-7, but w/ halo instead of gated) is smaller, and has a more accessible tails switch. The reverbs they offer overlap a bit. Both are as ugly as can be.
Is it right that the Supernatural can do full wet signal? I might use that. I wonder if I could mod the Polara to add a dry-cut switch, since the dry path is analog.
