Some of the most beautiful Reverb sounds on higher dwell and reverb settings IMO could get a bit noise when not played right but whatever when you got the grip its worth that little trouble ;-)

Yeah, probably my favorite pedal currently. I love this thing, thinking about picking up a second for easy switching over to my 'washy' reverb and my always on reverb.

Also, where'd you come by the knobbie to turn your dwell up/down?

I had one for a while. It was a very fun pedal but I moved on to the Neunaber Wet which I have been really happy with.

Without the dwell knob I don't find the chicken to be very useful.

yeah the dwell is the coolest feature about it. is there any difference besides the size and buffer between the spring chicken with a dwell knob and a chicklet?

The SC is a tad nosier.
The SC used the belton, the chicklet is malekko's own design but VERY similar in sound.

Some people have a/b'd them and prefer the chicken.
Also the chicken has an expression input.

Same here ....sold my spring chicken for the neunaber wet and i'm really happy too but they are really different beast ..The SC is more springy and the wet is more plate hall ambient reverb,just a question of taste
i also have an RRR on my board and the complementary with the wet is just.... perfect
I also owned the strymon BSR,good reverb but I found the wet better and this shimmer effect is really....fake and horrible (sorry I'm not in the U2 fanclub )

I use my Spring Chicken to make weird distant spacey drum noises and booming clicks by running squarewave CV into a CV to EXP converter and then into the EXP input on the reverb. Super fun and totally unexpected.

Very cool, Kosta. Not to derail the thread--but what do you recommend for a cv to expression converter?

I loved mine, but sold it for a BSR
I loved the sounds it made, but it had a volume drop which i wasn't really able to tolerate because I don't have reverb on all the time. I really liked how swampy it got, but I decided I could use the buffer on the BSR more.
Maybe one day I'll pick another one up, because it rawks.

Want muchly.

The one I use is this one from Squarewave Parade: http://www.thesquarewaveparade.com/bleak-cvexp.html Not sure what else is out there even. I'd imagine there are schems floating around online. The circuit is suuuuper simple. Very handy if you have CV gear.

I'm working on my own DIY reverb project that uses the Belton module (same one in the Spring Chicken). Once I have it finalized, I'll post in the DIY section.

My current plan is to set it up for "tails", so that when you bypass it, the verb continues to echo.

(that will switchable between buffer and true bypass).
