Ken "Hot Springs" Tkacs: > Spring reverbs, even great ones, don't replace the better digital reverbs, > but it is a unique sound that I'd like to continue to have access to. Funny--I've been thinking more and more that it's kind of hilarious to use a good digital reverb (i.e. one that emulates a "real" space) on sounds that don't occur naturally in an acoustic space (don't nit-pick me)--know what I mean? For example, medium hall reverb on guitar, bass and drums makes sense--you get the illusion of a group playing in a certain space. But in what space is a modular playing? Mind you, I'm talking about synth-only stuff, not synth stuff in the context of a rock or jazz or orchestral group. So I've been using the hell out of my Furman RV-2 with the MOTM stuff. I love it. Has anyone used one of these old, consumer hi-fi spring reverbs with their synths? I have three here at work that I haven't brought home yet (three of us are temporarily using them as monitor stands!); I put CD audio through one of them and was pleasantly surprised... Just curious to know before I schlepp one home. David.
