Heres a challenge

Post by louis »

who can build a decent reverb pedal.

BUT

the input and output jacks have to be XLR or whatever that 3 pinned mic shit is, as in, its going straight from the mic, through the pedal, to the board.

and how much will it cost?

I don't think anyone here has the skill to build a digital reverb. The circuits are relatively simple, but there is absolutely no margin for error as the chips are very sensitive (and about $20-25 each).

Analog would be very large - imagine a standard reverb tank connected to Phase 100 enclosure. It would also be very fragile and a little noisy.

Yr best bet would be a used Alesis box or something - anything DIY'd would probably run $200+ for digital and $150+ for analog.

You can get XLR-1/4" converters. Then you can use a nomal RV-3 or whatever your fav reverb pedal is.
