In the last five years, I’ve sort of settled on plate reverb for most things. I initially discovered its “magic” in pro tools, working with Chris Lord Alge’s vocal plugin. It’s still a mechanical, analog style reverb but it doesn’t contain as many artifacts as a spring...and like you said, it doesn’t latch onto certain resonant frequencies, etc. it’s just a nice, smooth, ever-present “wetness” that doesn’t clog the pipes. I don’t think my hardwire supernatural has budged from “plate” in the last five years hahah
A good point that was proven but overlooked by most is the HOF sounds great and for the average player (someone not into super tweeking) the HOF is a much better value !!!!!
I bought the HOF with high hopes and was sorely disappointed. I don’t need something like the Big Sky, but the HOF just sounded cheap. That’s me, a lot of people like it and that’s fine, just not for me.
I was trying to focus on the different types of reverb but I got to distracted from the beautiful electric guitar, I had to watch it again lol, god I love music so much! and thanks for the video it was super helpful
I'm always impressed with the HOF algorithms when I hear them side by side with the Big Sky. Obviously the Big Sky has more features, but it's hard to justify paying 4x as much when ultimately the HOF sounds just as good.
it's personal taste but my experience with TC Electronic pedals is they all sound kinda metallic and cheap...hard to explain. When I got my Strymons it was like "Ok, finally." You get what you pay for most of the time...not always, but most of the time.
Kelster Von Shredster the difference between my chinese Reverb vs the hall of fame is night and day difference between the hall of fame and the big sky.
The Hall of fame really holds it's own well-I have The HOF Arena Reverb & it is awesome.Especially since it has the Tone Print which I downloaded the Steve Morse Reverb from his signature ENGL Amp & sounds really epic for heavy rock.I'm using an ENGL FIREBALL Amp N the Sounds are exact-Now The Strymon is really versatile N can achieve huge shimmering Soundscapes-which I really love for a lush ambient layering but wondering if I really love it since it's close to $500 bucks ...
HI Antoine, Thanks very much for this video. I have played bass for many years where the only thing between the bass and the DI box was a cable. I'm playing more electric guitar live now and it has been quite a mystery to me how to get a good reverb sound. Your videos have been extremely helpful in getting very nice sounds out of the HOF pedal I have.
Wow, this is excellent! Things are very clearly explained. I really like 6:09 and the following ha! ha! What are the beautiful chord progression at 1:467:44? Keep up the good work, Antoine, thanks!
Not 100% sure, but I reckon it'd be the "Shape" parameter (If I recall correctly, a reverb's shape affects both early reflections and diffusion of the sound, with lower values lending towards a more "open" reverb, and higher values lending towards a "tighter" one--to keep things brief). If I happen to be wrong and someone knows better or can expand, please correct me.
Yes, I am proud to be part of the Monochrome Seasons video team. You do all the hard work creating the videos and then I come up with something funny to say and that's my part!
Le Big Sky prend de la place sur le pedalboard.Il commence a dater un peu.La 2 ieme version de la TC est vraiment bonne et compacte.Merci pour les sons.
handsomerube Of course, it's a keeper on my board! It's just because it didn't have all the types of reverbs I needed that I changed it for the Hall of Fame for this video.

Thank you Tommy Wiseau
What a story
Oh hai Mark!
Antoine before reverb: "Oh hi Mark."

Incredibly useful video! Been playing for years and always struggled with this until now 😊
Glad it helped :-)

I find plate to generally be my favourite. I've always loved that wicked game Chris isaak sound.

exactly mate!

@@dostacos1 different strokes.. Did u get the OG one or the HOF II?
I was trying to focus on the different types of reverb but I got to distracted from the beautiful electric guitar, I had to watch it again lol, god I love music so much! and thanks for the video it was super helpful
Thank you my friend!
Wowwww. Hall of Fame truly put a beat down on Big Sky. I’ve always said it. Now I now it to be true. Thanks for this.

Kelster Von Shredster same. I bought the HOF and was very excited but was sorely disappointed.

시발 진짜 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
You explain it perfect with your voice!, like when i discribe the strat, tele ando lp sound
Not sure about the comments saying hof sounds cheap. It sounds pretty good to me. In fact i liked the sound of the hof better here.
Fantastic comparison between the different types of reverb, explained simply but well, good job 👍
I finally start to understand something regarding reverb ... Tx for that!!

Great playing and a concise overview of the principles being used. Awesome vidio.

Great video, perfect explanation of reverb types
Great video! I just wish you used the HoF for the comparison at the end because the spring sounded way better on it than on the strymon lol
Really good video you opened my eyes and ears, thank you 🙏
Awsome video, but can you explain which one you'd use for ambience?
Excellent explanation, thank you, man.
This was a huge help, thank you.
Hey man, well done! What Chords are you playing at 1:45 min ? (Basically the chords you are playing throughout the whole video) Would love to know :)
I think most of them are minor 11 or add9 chords. In another video he said he uses them in videos
I really like your reviews. You have a new fan!
Very good explanation but, why do you have both pedals, surely one will do the job for all purposes?
I'm just trading some pedals now and then to try new things and make new pedal demos on my channel. Of course one or the other would be enough!
Brilliant clear explanation man! Thanks!
in a vst like the valhalla vintage verb, what parameter would represent the "body" that was the one concept I really could understand
Not 100% sure, but I reckon it'd be the "Shape" parameter (If I recall correctly, a reverb's shape affects both early reflections and diffusion of the sound, with lower values lending towards a more "open" reverb, and higher values lending towards a "tighter" one--to keep things brief).
If I happen to be wrong and someone knows better or can expand, please correct me.
Been playing 25 years and never knew lol. All I knew was my twin reverb had “ reverb” and it worked 😎
Great video Antione!
Superbe Demo, thank you, finally I got it! 👍
is this halloffame pedal the same Hof pedal?
Nice review, loving the sounds
The most useful reverb to me is the stereo reverb
Excellent video, thanks very much.🎸🎶🌞🌞👍
what tone of dist do you use?
Very useful info, again. Thanks!
great stuff duude! what riff were you playing?
You do a great gsp impression bro!
Liam Hudson I hope I'm not as bad!!! Haha ;)
I thought of gsp too !! Great accent !!
Which one do you recommend the most for jazz guitar?
I think Spring reverb would be the most common for jazz tones.
@@AntoineMichaudGuitar thanks!
Really good video! What are the chords you are playing?
at the start that is!
Great video. I appreciate the explanations very much.
I don't like spring reverb because, after spring, you have to put it away until the next spring... he he
Timothy Buss Always the greatest puns ;)
Yes, I am proud to be part of the Monochrome Seasons video team. You do all the hard work creating the videos and then I come up with something funny to say and that's my part!
But very reliable however .. as it will always bounce back :-)
It also gives you a fever. Spring fever 😉
please stop
Quite usefull and simple presentation.
Thanks !!
Reverb tends to sound much better when applied after the speaker in the signal chain. Not practical in live situations but easy to do when recording
Thanks for this! By the way, did you use a clean tone, or there’s a bit of overdrive?
Pretty clean! Maybe there was a tiny bit of breakup, but I usually set things up super clean.
Thanks for the quick response! Keep up the good work man!
Your guitar sounds amazing
Very useful !! Thanks from Cannes (France) !!
Vas-y guitare Merci beaucoup de Montréal (Québec)
Excellent! TY
I really appreciate this, helping me with an audio class...Thanks for making this video!
Really good and basic explanation and soiund examples - thanks a lot - thumbs up and sub well deserved ;-)
Great explanation thanks
Very nice video!
Really useful!
Le Big Sky prend de la place sur le pedalboard.Il commence a dater un peu.La 2 ieme version de la TC est vraiment bonne et compacte.Merci pour les sons.
Thanks man!
Wow thanks man thats very helpful
Thank you!
You're welcome!
well done video
Plate and hall for me
Very clear and helpful! is it me or is the hall of fame sound better(easier on the wallet) :P
Great Bro !!!
The Hall of Fame is so much better, it's obvious ^^
Is it :))))?
no more neunaber reverb?
handsomerube Of course, it's a keeper on my board! It's just because it didn't have all the types of reverbs I needed that I changed it for the Hall of Fame for this video.
Well explained …
perfect!!!
BIG SKY OR BLUE SKY???
I compared them: ruclips.net/video/fVzzTg-TKRM/видео.html
But then I went back to bone my girlfriend, but the mosquitos were crazy and she said there was no way.
“Vibrating shit” :)) Thanks, Antoine!
Haha :)
love your accent :-)
Thought the HOF sounded best
KeithCanisius it's because of how he set them
HOF 👍
That doesnt sound like spring reverb at all. You should do source audio true spring reverb
Always prefer plate hall & room
Spring is a no no for me
would be better if it was clean guitar :/
