  • The EMT 140 is a vintage plate reverb which revolutionize the recording industry in 1957 when it was released. In this video we have the opportunity to play an original EMT 140 as well as the famous Lexicon 224 Digital reverb. Thanks to ‪@timpierceguitar‬ and ‪@yvetteyoungmusic‬ for joining me in the studio to play with these amazing units.
    Huge thanks to ‪@UniversalAudio‬ for having me out to play through these amazing pieces of gear!

    This was a wonderful video to watch not only because of the history of the EMT 140, but because when I was a grad student in Electrical Engineering, I was part of a trio of semi-pro musician-engineers, and we actually built a large plate reverb according to the explanation in an audio engineering textbook. I had inherited a very large, very heavy wooden wardrobe, which was portable in the sense that with 5 men and a boy, plus a lot of wheelers, it could be shifted from place to place. It was made of very solid wood, on average about 1 inch thick (I believe the "box" was Oak, the back panel Teak, and the front 'double door' had been made from a single slab of a monsterous Redwood, felled and sawed decades before. I discovered that there were some sheets of steel stacked up on one side of the EE building loading dock. They'd been there for ages - one was either 3/4 or 7/8" thick and the other two were 1/4" steel plate. There was also a large sheet of thick copper, a leftover from some "secret" radio-frequency work done there during WWII. By great good luck, our immediate boss was also the Dean at that time, so when we put the proposal to him, he though it was a great idea. We were expected to spend at least 1 hour of every workday on our own "personal" projects or ideas, with parts supplied from the EE stores. Not sure how that would go today. With much grunting and a lot of bodies, we manhandled the cabinet up to the top-floor lab, where our group "lived." The department had an superb machine shop staffed by extraordinary craftsmen, so after we'd explained what we wanted the steel plates to do, they designed and fabricated both a suspension system, and a mechanism for moving the plate position. We had several coil-winding machines available, since we made almost all of our own research instruments, and so we cobbled up some drivers and pickups without too much difficulty. There was an excellent book all about the theory and practice of making inductors, for almost any purpose. It was about 2 inches thick, and had been written at the end of WWII, so there was information in there that had been developed for various types of equipment. That was a big help, also. From there, it was simply a matter of "putting it all together" - which was not without incident. One of the technicians from across the hall, who'd been giving us a hand, had the misfortune to have the thick plate dropped across his toes. If the University Hospital had not (literally) been next door, it might have ended with amputations, but fortunately the ER surgeons were right there, and were able to re-attach the toes. I suppose that the finished unit weighed at least a ton, and it aroused a lot of interest from musicians all around the campus. I know it remained in our lab after I'd moved to private industry. What was really distressing to learn was that when the "old" EE building was demolished to make room for a more modern Engineering center, the Plate Reverb was not removed. Instead, it fell to the wrecking ball because at that point there was nobody present to stop that destruction from happening. It was a once-in-a-lifetime project and opportunity, and I'm pretty sure we wrote a note about the project for one of the Engineering journals - I don't have a copy, unfortunately. It was a stinkin' shame that the unit we'd fabricated was destroyed and hauled off for scrap. Quite a few people who'd been involved at that time protested strongly, but the damage was done. If we'd had to buy the wood for the large cabinet, and the steel plates (and the copper one), it would have cost a small fortune. As it was, almost all of the main pieces were "good luck windfalls." We had a lot of fun with it, as did other musicians who came over to try it out. It could be done again, if money was no object, but now that the department is run by HR rather than by an engineering researcher, such "frivolous time-wasting" could never happen. Our Faculty went from being one of the best in North America, and now is more or less a "woke joke." Certainly, Engineering is not the first focus. Thanks for sharking tis Rhett - I'd almost forgotten about the "wardrobe reverb" cabinet (dimensions 6-1/2 ft tall x 5 ft wide, about 25-30 inches deep). Quite the beast.

      There are tons of different reverb types. I love experimenting with different reverbs in my DAW. When playing live, I like to use a pedal with a ton of different reverb types: spring, plate, hall, chamber, room, etc. Digital reverbs that don't emulate anything specific can also be nice.

      I don’t even care about the drip.
      Most musicians aren’t using a Spring reverb, to get the drip effect. It’s just a test, of how well a digital emulation, can reproduce the spring effects.
      Even actual spring reverbs, from the amps that made it famous, often don’t have the surf rock drip, for which that tone was made famous.

    Scott's Valley, CA. Lol that is where I grew up. Have a new respect for digital reverbs. Think we get so focused on traditional tube spring reverb. When I can just get a good digital reverb for the Marshall

    I got incredibly lucky, getting my hands on a Polara (DigiTech) reverb pedal. My FLGS was trying to get rid of it,because DigiTech was about to issue a v2, with a different paint job.
    Anyhow, it has those Lexicon reverbs -spring, room, hall, plate, reverse, modulated, and halo, and it’s freaking fantastic.
    They’re now going for 3x or more what I paid for mine, and my guy at my FLGS said he wished he had 10 of them. They’re not hard to find, and I think they’re still in production.

    I have an old Gibson G-30 amp that has an amazing spring tank reverb, but THE best reverb I've ever played through was an Alesis Quadraverb....it is un-freaking real how good those things are...simple amazing....(and it has a plate reverb setting...)
    Wanna hear that arm hair lifting sound of Eddie's percussive intro to Ain't Talkin' Bout Love......buy one

    You can have this specific unit on your pedal board if you capture an IR of it. Capturing IRs is pretty easy for this kind of gear. This type of equipment is a linear time invariant system so convolution captures it perfectly. You can't capture a modulated (changing over time) digital reverb though.
