Looks interesting and well thought out reverb and delay pedal. Welcome to the tone party👍

[Karen Sarkisian]

I dont know about that pedal but I sure am liking the GC-2 limiting amplifier / compressor pedal from Keeley !

[George Seymour]

Curious Brad, done what? All in one delay and reverb?

Curious Brad, done what? All in one delay and reverb?

Yes, that's that I mean, delay and reverb done WELL.

Standard chip based delay and reverbs like a million other people are offering. He's repackaging broken versions of the circuit and selling them as different sounds. If I wanted good reverb algo's I'd go with a Boss, Digitech (lexicon), TC, or Eventide.

Looks like a good unit, not high end, but good. Thanks Brad.
PS - My sms classic sounds as great as ever!

[Greg Cutshaw]

They (manufacturers) never tell you which chip the reverb is based on. That's key to understanding the base unit quality. Most manufacturers are just picking up off the shelf reverb/delay chips and adding optional additional peripheral knobs and circuits to vary certain parameters.

[Bud Angelotti]

So what chip is this unit based on?
How does it compare to other lower priced units?
Gotta try it right?
If Mr.Sarno says this is a decent unit, I believe him.
Yes, again, it's not high end.

[Brad Sarno]

I honestly don't know this unit nor have any opinion on it. I have not heard it and haven't even checked out the youtubes on it. But I like the design idea, the controls, etc.

I'm merely asking the question if Keeley has finally done it.

My first choice is outdoors in a clearing with a nearby forest and my amp on 10..if that's not available, I have a Holy Grail in my gig bag in case I ever need it

Boss, Digitech (lexicon), TC, or Eventide

Although BOSS was for a few decades one of the standards of reliability AND tone, the "tone" side of things has taken a rather drastic uptick in the last decade or so. I don't know specifically WHAT they're doing, but I would add Pigtronix and subtract BOSS from the above list and I've come to EXPECT ear-tickling wonders. Somewhere around 2004-2005 it seemed like there was a breakthrough or at least a newer approach to eliminating icky solid-state distortion and as this spreads, ALL SORTS of delays and phase/rotary/shorttime mods and yes, overdrive pedals benefit. Overdriving the dingus they want and not the dingus they don't? Guitarists like Oz Noy, Julien Kasper, Michael Landau, Eric Johnson are now doing LIVE what used to be only available via studio trickery. Irritatingly, they CAN also play three chords on an acoustic and kick your ass too... Oz Noy approaches Groucho Marx, IMO (and/or Harpo).

Looks awesome to me! I haven't listened to it but I think it's a cool setup! The earthquaker Avalanche run is a pretty hip version of the same idea.
