Man this one sounds just hauntingly open for a spring. The modulation is damn near on point. Thanks for the demo on it!
It's advertised as a spring, and I sure can hear it, but it's more like a plate verb.
Kind of reminds me a little of that weird spring/plate mode the SA TrueSpring has, but this just seems more organic. Definitely one of the better Belton(? Thought I read somewhere it was a Belton brick) style delays I've heard.
Belton's early reflections are spring-like, and late reflections are plate-like.
Congrats, this is seriously one of the best small-factor reverb units on the market, and definitely the king of the belton hill. We have one in our office (Film And TV Sound/Foley Studio in Hollywood) and it has been used on a ton of various productions, typically when we need our ADR vocal tracking to sound like they're in larger sized rooms. If you haven't used it on vocals yet I recommend it in addition to being a killer guitar reverb
For me this is such an underrated reverb. Easily my favorite out of all the ones I’ve tried, and I’ve tried a lot.
Love getting it just on the point of self oscillating, and really picking hard at the strings. Beautiful sounding pedal.
Hey that one's really cool looking, where'd you get it
Some lame Discord pleb. Got a lame pin in the box too.
Sounds lame af.
Short Audio Demo (cell phone quality)
So this is the Mantic Proverb. It's a spring verb with 3 easy knobs. Couldn't believe how easy it was to dial in usable sounds with this thing. I turned knobs randomly 5 or 6 times and each sound was awesome. I ended up landing on the settings in my video.
I think my favorite part of this pedal is the perfect amount of modulation, even without any sort of modulation knobs. It's just the right amount of movement.
This thing is gonna be on a new mini pedalboard I'm building, so I don't have a place in the chain for it yet.
Edit: The fact that the picture uploaded sideways peeves me.
