What's the worst stereo reverb? I want that. I also want to talk about this more.

PETER KATIS: There's something grand about the record. It's an odd mixture: kind of crappy-sounding and lo-fi and sludgy in ways, but it also sounds great. People talked about the luscious sound of the reverb, but it's fucking literally almost the cheapest reverb sound. Those guys came in with their little Alesis MicroVerbs-- cheaper reverbs have a sound that is darker and messier and cooler. And that's part of what gives the drums such a spank. Without that little $50 piece of gear, the record would've sounded totally different.

Are you talkin' about that Mike Figgis movie?

Glad everyone has eternal love for the old Alesis Verbs. And it seems a big take away is that i need more AUX outs than a Mackie 1202 affords me. Good to know. Of course, you can run your whole mix through that thing's preamps.

Who knew Mike Figgis's an ILF fan???

Alesis reverbs seem super cool. My friend got a crazy deal on a midiverb II yesterday... 5€. I want to try running an entire mix through my warped vinyl soon

A bandmate sent me a recording of a gig we did, with our free improv quartet a couple of months ago, earlier today,
and I was inspired by this thread to do a "analog/hardware" mix/master of the track.
I uploaded it to my phone and plugged the phone into my old Behringer mixer.
Hooked my RM-1n up in the fx-loop on the mixer and dialed in some nice reverb and just a little bit of dirt.
Did a little EQing on the channel strips and set the fx-mix(RM-1n) about 50%.
Then plugged the mixer into my sound card and recorded the track on my laptop.

Here is the result:

Ran an entire mix of improv electroic stuff (techno?) Through a Digitech Digiverb in reverse mode. It was beautiful and perfect. For three instruments recrded in one take onto one mono track live. But still, want to do more of this. Want to try envelope responsive effects. Will try to post clips when ever I bounce the tape to computer and cut it down.

Just listened to this while rearranging my guitar board.
Most enjoyable. Well done.

Thanks guys! I think it turned out quite well. Both the performance and the "running a mix through pedals" part.
And it was fun doing the "hardware mastering". Prolly gonna do more of that.
