After trying a friend's Reverberator.. I had to have one.
Without doubt the best Reverb I've used.. as well as the reverb effect, it adds a 'bigness' to the sound.
Plus.. it's got a bunch of voicing settings that are all different and useful, and all in a small, well built box.

Not really a DIY project I don't think (not for most of us anyway ), but worth a peek inside.

The pics are from Dr Scientist's website because I was too lazy to photo mine.. hope they don't mind.

I like what they did with the switch

That's the only bit I was wondering about..
The jacks are all soldered right at the top of the baord, so I wonder if the only thing supporting the bottom portion is those wires ?
I'll have to have a poke around.

The LED legs can be quite hefty as well if that's soldered directly to the board

The toggle switch looks to be board mounted?

Hmm, DIY, probable but crazy. Anyone notice all the little bits of writing on the PCB? "SMD Rules!"

Yeah i've noticed those before, they have a lot of Red Dwarf & Mighty Boosh quotes on the PCBs as Ryan (Dr.Scientist) is a fan.

Certainly a builder that gives the Boutique world a good name, really nice guy to deal with, helped me out on a few occasions.

I'm totally gassing for one of these right now.

Ever since the new layout came outI've felt the same way... But now I'm waiting to see how this pedal fares:

That looks *awfully* similar to the RRR. But I do like the stereo in and out.

Soon Ryan will be working on an updated RRR that will have Stereo ins and Outs, he's revamping all his old designs with relay switching and extra features.

But man... I fucking love my RRR, for simple reverb it's just... aww yeah.

Indeed the quote on this pedal "In space no one can hear you scream" is a Red Dwarf one.
Nice layout BTW

Fuck yeah. I'm trying like hell to trade for one at ILF, but I just don't have the goods I guess.

i hear them ILF gnomes like them PLLONES!
that should get you a RRR

I have no idea what that means. And that's probably why I can't get a RRR at ILF.

that good sir is impossible

All these goddamned acronyms!!

PLLONES is I guess PLL clones?

Hell I don't understand tuffteef half the time, think he took too much crack again. But I think that's what he's getting at, people want that Schumann cloned and would trade for that.

People don't trade the Reverberators that often because well... if they were after a simple reverb, they're usually over the moon with it so why flog it, occasionaly people don't bond though or wanna upgrade to a Strymon Blue Sky or something so they come up then.

You could try trading a Blem with Ryan Culturejam, he has a couple at the moment I think and likes trading with members
