    This thing has been the most important part of my rig over the last 3 years. I absolutely adore the quad chorus and flanger!
    That being said, the interface is a pain in the ass for quick editing.
    Glad you could make a demo showcasing how great this unit is!

      can you include that into the signal chain?

      Alesis is famous for their pain the ass editing. Sometimes mine won't store either, but they sound decent for the $....

      i have a midiverb 4 and i run it in the FX loop of my evh 5150 iii amp. i get loud hissing whenever i engage the alesis unit, is that common with this unit? i want to eliminate that hissing.

      I believe Blue Cat Audio's Midi remote will help with that.

    IMO probably the best reverb you can get for low dollars. This thing closes in on the SPX series and others. What a great pick up for anyone wanting to use hardware reverb.

    Awesome unit! Just checked Reverb, glad to see you can still find these for cheap!
    Great that you took the time to shoot this one, love finding new vids on old gear that's still relevant today!

    I love the nashvill preset, I use it for live vocals. When I got my new digital mixer I did a side by side to try and clone the preset.

      I was told it was a poor man's Quadraverb. Joke is on everyone else, I paid $40 for mine like 10 years ago and it still blows me away.

    Look up the band Astrobrite. Scott Cortez uses almost exclusively a midiverb on all those albums along with some overdrive pedals.

    Would I run this at the end of my fx chain going in the front or run it in the back where the fx send/return is? I know with time based fx you get better results going in the back. Not sure if it matters in this application. My midiverb4 arrives today.

    Hi dude, I just wanted to say that I really appreciate your videos, mainly that you go through all the stuff slowly. The videos could be longer if needed and I'd still watch.

      parkwaydrive77 it has inputs and outputs to utilize. Plug your guitar into the input and your amp into the output

    Huh, I got one of these for free and mine says 18-bit, not 24-bit. Interesting sounding presets, I like the feedback I'm getting on the bright reverb patches with heavy distortion.
