EX Mini Digital Reverb Pedal

Let me start by saying I have a Boss RV-6, which is a great reverb. And a decent Mooer too. So why look for another reverb? Because for me, reverb is either on or off, and set-and-forget; I don't want to mess with knobs once I've found the sound I'll use. But in gigging situations, where everything gets knocked around, the RV-6 is too big and has too many settings to remember where I want them. And while sure, while its sound is top-notch and the box more versatile, frankly, in the din of a rock show in a crappy club PA, much of the difference between a great reverb and an acceptable one get lost. So in a funny way, the lack of settings and versatility, when combined with the tiny size of this thing, made me think risking $30 was worth testing it out. And to my delight (given what I've said) there really as only one setting that I even liked- big knob on "ROOM", "LEVEL" and "TIME" at max, and "DRY/WET" at... uh... wherever the heck around the middle that knob-with-no-notch is pointing! Don't get me wrong- it has some quirks. Unusually bad "pop" in your amp when you turn it on (remedied by remembering to leave it on bypass when you turn it off), the missing notch on the mix knob, the weird delay and short swell in volume whenever you do change a setting. Plus before I found "ROOM" setting, the fact that the two other options ("SPRING" and "WELL") were enough for me to regret spending $30. But the ROOM setting was fine. It is quite vanilla- in a good way. You're not going to make the next ambient space music hit using it, but for Rock-n-Roll, I personally find it basically as good as my Fender practice-amp's built-in [digital] reverb. So this one-setting, tiny-footprint thing is perfect for my gig board- at least it's been great for the first two rehearsals, first gig with it is in 3 days, I'll revise this is anything goes too untoward there. Incidentally, one of the deciding reasons I pulled the trigger on this was that someone else described it as "weird." I agree: It is an eccentric box- and kudos to Ex for that, that's a compliment. The cheap clones-of-clones market is overly full. This pedal somehow was inexpensive while also being unique (or at least a clone of anything I know). Seems like they earnestly took a creative approach. As for the "tone-suck" think a few people harped on- I think I did notice a loss of bass on one or both of the two settings I didn't like, but on the "ROOM" setting, I am not noticing much if any difference in tone. To be fair, I am sending it a pretty robust, low-impedance signal. I would never think of plugging a guitar directly into any low-cost pedal; between bad impedance matching and the noise of cheap electronics, I put all the cheap pedals at the end of the chain. So in short: Pros: -price -set-and-forget -tiny footprint -acceptable sound Cons: -loud pop upon startup -only one setting sounds good for my use -odd volume swell and delay when changing settings.

I am sure there are some musicians who would scoff at a reverb pedal this price but the sound on this thing is excellent. True bypass, well-wired with no pesky noise, clean sounding reverb that ranges from tight punches to long reverbs. Longer sounds tend to be more noticeable but this is a budget pedal. Best value and sound for this price range. Also a very slim profile (about half the width a standard pedal) makes it easy to slot into any setup.

Decent pedal, I go towards the dry side with reverb, and I was able to find a nice setting. It made my sound more full. It an inexpensive pedal, as long as you are not looking for the Fender twin reverb sound, it will work good. Update, the only setting I like is well. It is an acceptable sound for me. This unit distorts effects placed in front of it. I had to place it first or in front of other pedals. It works when it's the reverb you have.

Does a decent job considering the low cost. I say if you don't usually play with reverb above about 5 then you will find this works just fine.

My amp doesn't have a reverb on it, so first I bought the Boss RV-6 reverb for almost $150. Worked great, but on the second day it stopped working, so I returned it and bough this unit. It sounds just fine and I'm so glad for all the money I saved. Note I'm a long time music producer who has used some high end reverbs, both physical and virtual. This may not be as good, but it's quiet and does the job quite well.

Reverb pedal barely works. You set it on room, you get some sort of hall or as they call it "well". You set it anywhere else, you get hardly any reverb at all. Anything but full blast on the "time" knob = no reverb. You have to have the wet/dry mix almost full wet to hear any reverb, and if you go a hair above it, you lose any dry signal and you get a boost of reverb. I believe the natural reverb in my apartment was more than what this pedal gave. That's what I get for buying cheap, I guess.

If you’re on a budget or just learning guitar, this is an okay option. The modes are indistinguishable from one another, and the way the reverb fizzles out sounds robotic.

What I dislike about this pedal, and literally this is the only thing, is I get a little static when I switch it on, it only lasts like a split second, but I would not use it in a gig scenario where the effect comes on in the middle of the song, maybe for some 90's grunge. All of the settings work well, I am not experiencing the "tone suck" that others reported or issues with the dial settings. My assumption is that the producers improved on the pedal in the last 2 years since most of these reviews were left, or they just got lemons. All in all, this pedal is great quality, especially for the price and as long as you are not looking to switch it on in the middle of a song, you are not going to be disappointed . I did a test with the pedal, it is on you tube, and you can look me up there if you want to hear it from some guy in his apartment rather than from the company.

You really can't go wrong with these

Buena relación calidad precio. Tiene buen sonido y es bastante practico de usa, el material se siente de buena calidad y dado su tamaño cabe en cualquier pedalboard. El potenciometro principal es un poco flojo, pero fuera de eso es un buen producto.

Another good product from this company. This is my 5th pedal from them. Just great. I recommend.

Un buen producto es de un buen material, un poco pequeño peor funcional (no viene con el adaptador de voltaje) es una buena compra, lo recomiendo

The dry/wet knob on this is likely for show. It's not very noticeable at all. The reverb is also very straightforward and base line. Don't expect anything amazing like an Ocean's 11 pedal. Great for beginners before they invest in something more of affordable quality like a JHS 3 Series Reverb pedal etc.
