Re: qualities of reverb/cool vitage delay units

["Per Boysen" <perboysen@gmail.com>]

HI,

Since this thread turned into listing hardware reverb units I can add
the rack mountable Yamaha R-1000, which I once owned for a couple of
years. I never liked the sound, but back in those days there wasn't
much choice. It added too much hiss for my taste. Since it was a mono
reverb it suited perfectly to us in the effect chain of my Gallien &
Krueger 2x50w stereo guitar amp combo. The reverb also boosted this
nice little guitar combo to give a better sounding overdrive. For
studio recordings I often cabled it into a mixer loop and used one of
those yellow MXR Stereo Chorus pedals for the reverb return, to give
it some wide stereo and pitch wobbling character. I made it sound much
better by rolling off treble (oh that horrible hiss...) and using a
reverb loop (sending the reverb return back into the unit). I would
not recommend the R-1000 and actually gave it away for free to a guy
that said he liked it.
