I have completed a new project for this wonderful community. Riptide is a real spring reverb utilizing a blue Accutronics tank. The circuit is actually rather straightforward, but I haven't seen any fully documented DIY projects for one, so I figured I would make one. The decay time is something in the 2.3-2.4 second ballpark, if I remember correctly. The tank is cheaper than a brick or an FV-1 and you can do things like tank splash if you want to. You won't get the massive splashy sounds of a twin reverb or the like, but it will fit on a pedalboard easily and doesn't require any transformers, etc. Schematic is attached and full build documentation, board files, and schematics along with how it works can be found at https://scientificguitarist.wixsite.com ... ing-reverb
