- Today I'm showing you some of my favorite extraordinary reverbs - verbs that inspire creative new ways to send your signal into the atmosphere. These verbs are not for the faint of heart, but for those brave souls who will venture into uncharted reverberation territory to find new sonic landscapes. In the comments let me know what your favorite reverb pedal and sound I played was, and also any reverbs you have that fit this category and how you use them!

Reverb became so popular that it actually got it’s own website
😃
they started selling things to use reverb with at some point. instruments and stuff. we'll see if that ever takes off...
👍🏻😂😂
*golf clap*
😂😂
A dude that makes/sells pedals going ham over other people’s pedals and how cool they are with massive amounts of positivity...yup, that classy right there. Classy.
HAM? WTF? No he is just being a normal regular guy that likes different pedals.. This is how it is supposed to be, not tooting your own horn.
Literally every pedal builder that has a youtube channel does this. Also Josh H. Scott is not without his fair share of well deserved controversy.
@@michaelcraig9449 While most people use "ham" as an insult, I don't think Max meant any harm. And yeah, I think Josh is pretty classy, haters be damned.
@@brendenbaughman662 "well deserved controversy" since when?

@@patrickscheidegger3714 Well done.
Should ask Devi Ever if she agrees
One of the bonus features of reverbs with "evolving" sounds is that they discourage wanking. Yes, yes, I'm fully aware you can play as fast as you do. But the only way for you to actually HEAR the auditory miracles these things pull off is to *stop* playing for a bit, so you can hear them. I think that's a real gift to music.
Fantastic point. And this is coming from a self professed 80’s wanker. In a lot of the music I play these days (modern church music) I don’t need to try to be Edward Van Halen. So having more spacious reverb really forces me to slow down.
@@MrSpeed-lt8gr Different effects can impose a shift in focus on players. Whenever I hear from players who feel like they are in the doldrums, and need a kick in the arse for their playing and development, I will often recommend getting an envelope-controlled filter (autowah) of some kind, or a pitch-shifter/harmonizer. Autowahs push you to think like a drummer, syncing the sweep to the beat and general rhythm. Pitch-shifter force you to think about melody structure and movement more. Wanking of any kind sounds simply awful with either of those.
Again, not to come down too hard on wanking. Sometimes one has to fill up space and time until a *really* good musical idea pops into your head and fingers. But when you want to go beyond wanking, it's good to have circumstances that force you to practice being creative and expressive even when you play fewer notes.
What a great point! Thank you
Every person that plays guitar at a church already has two of these reverbs.
church is gae
TwoYs wow how edgy
I am thinking of a tiny, (160 square feet) anechoic room. I will be needing to create a space using my FX.
I used to have a blueSky and a Hall Of Fame 2 on my board but decided to sell my HOF and use only my blueSky. Best decision I made (mainly cause I use more delay than I do reverb).
yeah, I get the impression 'worship' players account for a huge slice of the US guitar equipment market
What I love most about your videos is the blatant enthusiasm for pedals. You build your own great products and still share the love for others AND have a seemingly unending well of knowledge on the history of so many. Thank you.
The dude just loves pedals.
I like the way he shows so much respect and appreciation for his peers in the business. Reminds me a lot of the ethos of the craft brew industry where there is general agreement that more people making good beer helps grow the whole market. Plus it's just cool to be part of a community of people who love the same stuff.
I guess you could say, Josh is like the Jim Koch (of Sam Adams) of boutique pedals --- the PR guy for the whole industry/community.
The Old Blood Noise Dark Star is my personal favorite reverb pedal. I've written full-blown songs around it, making it absolutely necessary to remain perpetually on my board. That, to me, is what makes a pedal truly special.
Oh-oh, dangerous topic for me. Non-ordinary delays and reverbs are my kryptonite. Josh, your channel (and your good vibes, humor and smarts, and love for pedals) are top of the line, elegant and educational, love it all! See, JHS pedals are expensive to import to Brazil (where I live), but I gotta have them, for the love that is put into them. Thanks endlessly.
Same here, man. Guess Brazilians just love JHS... Must be the Whitey Tightyes... =P
It just goes to show you my friend. Great Tone know's NO BOARDERS! We are all in search of that elusive KINGTONE!!! NO MATTER what nationality, color or Creed we are all the same! Cheers my friend.
Bro let me know if I can get them cheaper here in N.Y. I live on Long Island. I could shop them DOWN to you. If I can be of any help let me know. I also have a bunch of old effects at me house I would let go dirty cheap for a fellow guitar player. Let me know my friend.
@@alexcampos7953 Brazilians are no different from anyone else just like up here in New York we all love great guitar tone just like you all. We are all the same! Cheers bro!
Oh by the way I can't seem to stop buying effects either! Lol I'm lucky I have an understanding wife!!!
Slow Dancing in a Burning Room wouldn't be the same without that massive reverb on that thump in the intro riff
Another excellent Vlog! "Observator" or "Pe'ahi" by the Raveonettes - great reverb records. Thanks for plugging into the Ventris, Josh!
woohoo!
Absolutely!
I want a full length track if the Ventris song from this video. It's so chill.
It is on my board.Love the Ventris.
I love the Afterneath, but also love the Meris Mercury7 reverb. I think the classic Jeff Buckley album Grace would not be the same without all the reverb, especially the beautiful and haunting classic Hallelujah. What a song.
So Real was also like a love song dedicated to reverb. The whole album is amazing. I saw Jeff play a solo show in Cambridge, MA, just him, a tele, and a Twin, and it changed me.
I couldn’t vouch more for the Old Blood Procession. Years later and it’s still my most inspiring wild card pedal. Every sound is so beautiful and being able to hold trails is magic.
The Verve's A Storm in Heaven is so much soaked in reverb that you could almost wring it out of the record and drink it up...
One of the only entrepreneurs who openly endorses other companies' pedals. You are a class act, Josh, which clearly demonstrates your integrity as a business owner and a human being! Keep up the excellent work!
Chris Issak - Wicked Game
I bought a Carl Martin Headroom Reverb because the demo had someone playing that song to absolute perfection.
Jesus and Mary Chain
"Just Like Honey"
The haunted reverb of Phil Spector-in-Purgatory love songs reimagined reverb (and feedback, that "Psychocandy" album) for a generation
Loved the Dark World! Also, I own a Boss RV-5 and I think that the modulate setting is amazing.
Agreed, I've the RV5 for the modulate and the DarkWorld is the pedal I want so hard. Sounds amazing!
I have to say how impressed I am that Josh puts out all these great, informative videos on pedals. He is more than just a fantastic builder, he is also a huge fan and historian on all things that make guitar sounds!
These are fantastic. I like that you bring out these pedals that a lot of us didn’t know existed.
Pearl Jam's 10, the use of reverb on that album gave it its mystical feel...
hmm, that's interesting..gotta relisten and pay attention
I agree. Master Slave, Garden, Release, Oceans, Porch crazy middle section, all benefit from it.
They hated it so much though, that VS was completely dry by comparsion.
And when they remastered Ten, they removed most of the Parashar's work.
Pearl jam 10 is One of the best modern rock albums of all time. Recorded on a sound craft mixing board
This Mortal Coil- Song To The Siren. Definitely wouldn't be the same with out the reverb.
I love how this channel continues to be absolutely Strymon free! Great vid
I love getting home from work, having a cup of coffee, and watching JHS. Look forward to it, so thank you.
The Neunaber Seraphim is one of my favorite Reverbs. I love the ability to go from my more “normal” Reverb sound to the shimmer verb by just holding the foot switch down for a couple of seconds.
Totally. I use that in my rig too. The ability to turn the shimmer on and off with my foot is why I went with that pedal.
Agreed, use it all the time. Great pedal
Ventris is gold, lovely playing Josh...
The TC T2 reverb is on my board and I love it, quite unconventional sounds as well as great atmospheric stuff, it’s awesome.
Really enjoyed some of these pedals you’ve shown, thanks for the continued great content!
Thank you...this is wonderful ! The pedals, the sounds, your thoughts, your playing, all wonderful...…..
My favorite reverb is the Strymon Big Sky. I made the investment (it's a bit expensive) and never looked back. I think it will be the only reverb I will ever need.
Christopher Connelly I’m thinking about picking one up, do you still stand by this statement? Was it worth it?
@@davidmbeitler Dont think and get it. You wont be disappointed. DONT get it if you're only going to use basic reverb settings you can get from a more simple pedal.
Get one..... get it now.... yes its expensive, yes it probably has more tones than you'll ever need, but it sounds amazing, I haven't had a bad experience with it at all.....
David Beitler brooooooo, i can’t express enough how much I love mine.
Faux pas missing out on the Beer mode of the Empress Reverb! Great episode none the less!
I was just here to say "no Empress beer mode?!"
I've never been much into pedals and for the past 10 years I've been happy with my first three companions. Subscribed to your channel a while ago and my shopping list keeps growing. I think I've discovered a new purpose in life. Only thing I need now is a good guide how to convince my wife that I really need new pedals.
Great episode. I really love Record Time and Trent Dabbs does not disappoint! Also loved being turned onto the Barr Brothers. Thanks Josh!
Galaxie 500..Blue Thunder....drenched in reverb
I like the OBNE Dark Star Pad Reverb for layers upon atmospheric layers of goodness!
Dark Star is freaking amazing! Just got mine this week. Loving it!
Nice! It’s otherworldly to me! Very cool pedal!
I just ordered the OBNE procession and I couldn't be more stoked. Probably wouldn't have been on my radar if not for this video so thank you!
I’ve been going through all of your videos and it has inspired me to buy my first DIY clone kit, the fact that this is your job is so amazing to me. Keep up all the good work!
Slow Dancing in a Burning Room wouldn't be the same without the reverb filling the space between John's chord stops.
I just love my slö ... im just a bit overwhelmed because of the variety of settings
I have to say..I just love your pedal demos.... Your casual,chatty style..really great....thanks!!
Such a good episode. Great choices. Surely Dan and Mick at TPS are jealous of how well this was produced.
I bought a gfi specular tempus recently. It was a lot of money for me (a student) but I am super happy with it.
good value for money, easy to use, small size and low power output.
I got the Slö the day it was released! Love that thing so much.. I haven't really figured out a good setting for Dark that I'm happy with, but the Rise setting is fun
Can really sense your love for music and pedals, props to you and your company newfound respect for JHS
I absolutly love reverbs, my favorite effect. Cool idea to explore these more extraordinary ones!
I dig my DigiTech Polara the Halo mode has super lush cascading octaves.
Agreed, I have the Polara and the Orange/Yellow delay they make, and I love both. The sound great and have amazing build quality. Definitely punching in above what you pay for them.
Agreed. Wish the Reverse didn't cut out all the dry signal though.
I really like the Empress Reverb. It's feature rich and sounds glorious. & That's all I got.
I was surprised not to see it.
@@kurtneighbors7356 it's too ordinary. Many of interesting reverbs were not featured
I was also surprised not to see it. The most elaborated one I know. My life has never returned to the same since I got that Pedal!
Beats the Strymon Big Sky, imho.
Dude the ghost setting on the Empress! It kills the ambient game. I love mine with my whole heart.
Really appreciate your program, how you are a voice for the entire pedal industry
So into this channel, all yalls videos are great, so nice to chill/geek out to. much love as always
my favorite reverb on any album is the effect John Frusciante used on After The Ending off of The Empyrean. There's some crazy non-linearness that I don't quite understand but I love anyways, as well as just the space that it provides and the emotion it conveys
Did u get my search history?? I swear to god, an hour ago I was super bummed you hadn’t done one of these reverb lists!
I love that you are just as enthusiastic if not more so about gear that in essence competes with you .
All amazing reverbs! Wonderful playing as always. 🙌
Now do best reverb pedals under $100 🔥
Reed Tard A lot of amps don’t have reverb 🤷♂️
Carlos8520 I got my Danelectro Spring King for $90, it uses a physical spring tank.
Don't you mean "Best Reverb Pedals under $100 ... until after my video, when their prices will skyrocket on Reverb?" ;)
Ammoon Pockverb
Reed Tard Eh, two of my three amps(all tube) have no reverb. Maybe that’s a personal problem on my part but regardless, there are still a significant amount of amps on the market with uninspiring or nonexistent reverb. Besides, sometimes a song may call for more than just the typical spring sound which unfortunately can only be achieved by this digital witchcraft.
A Black Mile to the Surface by Manchester Orchestra has the best verb on it!
Andrew Yarbrough one of the best albums
@@spookywharton definitely in my top ten!
Went to see them the day it released in Nashville. Drove 3 hours and when I got there the record store was at capacity... still got to meet them after and I love that album.
After finding this channel, I found a new thing about the guitar to be obsessed with. Had pedals before, but I was underwhelmed. I got the JHS unicorn v2, it's absolutely fantastic. After tinkering with a few other of their pedals, I can say they are all keepers, this is the real deal. Thanks for the great pedals and videos! pedals really can be inspiring- I generally play clean so I'm admittedly picky about pedals and their tone sucking capabilities but I don't worry about that with jhs. Keep on rockin' in the free world
My fave reverb out of the ones you played? Well, even though I own and adore the Afterneath, I'd say it was the Caroline, hands down. That sub-layer of grunge just grabbed me, as did the runaway filth with the 2nd switch. Great vid, Josh.
although a cliche by this point, never clicked a notification so fast. already sure it's gonna be a great video
Meteore owner. Absolutely love the pedal. The chaos switch is both more fun and useful than you might imagine.
My goodness man. I need (want) so many of these. Thank you for the vid. Peace!
The album that the use of reverb really got to me was Led Zeppelin 1. Back in 1969, this thirteen y/o kid was completely blown away. I know that by today's standards, some may scoff. Perhaps, this is just one of those cases where 'you had to have been there' for it to make sense. Great video! BTW, The way we look at horses? What a stellar piece of music! Thanks for the turn on.
Love the Afterneath, big fan or EarthQuaker's stuff...but that Specular Tempus! I've always loved the reverb on Duane Eddy's Rebel Rouser.
The specular tempus is the greatest pedal I have ever owned....I will keep it forever...so intelligently designed!!
Man.. I'm not a guitarist.. i play keys.. but this is the best pedal series on the toob! Awesome job yet again.
Stick with keys and don't buy a guitar and some pedals! It's a dark dark hole..
@@bentackett6299 haha! As a result of watching this series, I have already bought a number of pedals! There's just no escaping it regardless of what you play!
@@spiderfingers2005
Uh oh..
Have you checked out the Boss SP-1 Spectrum? Its sort of spendy but I heard that Keyboardists used them. It's my favorite guitar pedal.
I'm a guitarist and very mediocre keyboard player. I liked to use the keys to add a nice pad to some of my bands 4 track recordings back in the day.
The first time I plugged my el-cheapo Casio keyboard into a pedal my first question was "why didn't you try this sooner, dummy!"
An MXR 4 knob flanger was my favorite pedal to mess with. Took a bit of tweaking but the end results were worth the effort.
Besides the obvious flanging it made a great chorus and doubling pedal. At a certain setting you could hear two almost distinct instruments/voices.
It even emulated a steel drum sound pretty nicely. I still kick myself for selling it. Thinking of buying a new one but afraid it won't be quite the same.
You're right that the RV-500 covering all of them and much more... I"ve had it for 5 years and still discovering new ways to use it... Biggest bang for the buck reverb, IMO...
I couldn't resist, I ordered a Caroline Meteore. I think this will sound absolutely massive with my fuzz pedals (among other things). I appreciate that you highlight other makers, but now I need a JHS pedal lol. Your visits on That Pedal Show made me want to give your channel a try too
The Police Secret Journey from Ghost in the Machine was one of the first times I remember hearing an ambient reverb effect that wasn't early Pink Floyd
I have a Peavey SRP-16 reverb from the early 80's that still gets a spot on my board. It has a massive amount of selections and has all I ever needed in a reverb. It was designed to be a rack mount reverb in a pedal format. My only complaint is the colour they chose. Its Pink lettering on an eggshell background and is very hard to read. Fortunately, I've become so use to it, I can manipulate it without too much trouble.
Man I LOVE your channel and this video was a prime example of why. One of my favorite songs that I find myself always listening to the application of reverb is George Michael's "Jesus To A Child". 1995 and it's just brilliant. His vocals are so up front and crystal clear with beautiful touches of reverb that never seem intrusive. BUT if you pay close attention all of the vowels (but only those vowels) with a "splash" or an S "ssssizzle" have a loooong plate reverb on them so there's an intermittent tiny explosion of reverb from time to time that seems gone before you realize it was there. Took me years to figure out how he did it with low pass and high pass filters on a split signal. The guy could produce as phenomenally as he could sing.
The Way We Look At Horses is really nice! Great use of reverb, as you said. Thanks!
When we gonna talk about that white amp?
think its a milkman made for them
you see.... loud.... is more good. you follow?
@OrganicEcstasy what's the name of the episode? Thanks
Buy it at sweetwater.com
Shout out to Digitech Polara, it's pretty cheap, great build quality, its stereo, and the halo setting sounds incredible.
I completely agree, the halo is great, but the other effects are cold, cheap.
Looooove the afterneath! cramp up the drag as the reverberation settles, incredible.
thank goodness the YT algorithm finally got something right and brought me here. subscribed. my reverb wipeout occurred with Slowdive's Souvlaki. It's still ringing.
I love the Meris Mercury7. I had my eye on it ever since it came out and eventually got one. I highly recommend it. It's got (only) two algorithms, but they're wonderful and it has kind of its own sound. I like that.
ooh that's a pedal I REALLY want
@@ExperimentIV Yes, yes you do! ;)
Cool episode again. As for albums with great use of reverb, Tom Waits "Mule Variations" is brilliant, as is Joe Henry's "Reverie," which was recorded basically live in a room with the windows open. I don't personally own any reverbs that do weird sounds, but the Catalinbread Talisman is an impossibly good plate emulator. I like to combine it with other stuff to create all sorts of cool sounds.
th-cam.com/video/RLX0XZMNBaU/w-d-xo.html
that dude Eric Haugen does a bunch of demos on Marc Ribot, Tom Wait's guitarist (and HUGE part of his sound) they're amazing. Marc Ribot is a genius.
Thank you for this great demo !!...........really appreciate !
Really want that Afterneath, just knocks my socks off every time I hear it. I currently satisfy my ambient sweet tooth with the limited edition blue Astronaut+ by Shift Line paired with the Flashback II. It's my main pad combo during church time. My always-on reverb is the Immerse by Neunaber. I'd like to use that more for ambient, but until I get another reverb to do the heavy lifting, it'll stay where it is. Great video, man. You had me drooling the entire time!
Bought a RV-500 recently; cheaper than it's multi footswitch competitors and has some really unique features and sounds. Unfortunately not the most intuitive, but definitely a pedal tinkerer's playground.
one awesome intuitive thing about it though, once you get used to the menus, patch, control, save etc, the other pedals in the line, like my boss dd 500, as well as the boss ms-3, have the same menu layouts. So, once you can use 1, you can quickly use them all, and with the save patches, footswitch accessibility, and amazing MIDI recall, once you spend all that endless time perfecting your tones, they can be recalled live so easily. A lot of work up front, but amazing like Josh said, these pedals will do any sound on this Video. Keep tinkering, I promise you'll love it.
I have other pedals I love, but when playing live, I set up those sounds in the 500's for ease\y recall, and it never disappoints!
I really like my Strymon Flint! The plate is my personal favorite...
I second that! Great pedal with a lot of functionality in a small foot print.
I love your videos, man!
For the record, the Offspring started in the 80s, and is still playing today... they ain't just a 90's band!
I love this video. What I love is that he always doesn’t pick stuff the we all know are great. Yes, number one reverb we all know the Big Sky it’s on tons of board and it does it all. But, his videos are special because he is constantly showing the hidden gems in the world of guitar. I love reverb I have 3 reverbs on my board. Oceans 11, Hall of Fame 2 and a Caline Snake Bite. Each one has a special function but, when mix together creates beautiful soundscapes.
I've got the Walrus Slo. It can add some great sounds to any song me and my guys are playing. They live how it sounds too! I'd love a Ventris someday.
love my Red Panda Context, has great classic sounds but also has some freaky sounds on it.
asparagusman yessir. The cathedral setting is my favorite because of the gritty chorus-y sound, what’s yours?
@@ronaldbronco6387 I like the plate reverb a lot. sounds like old recordings. But I couldn't believe a reverb pedal could sound that lush.
Love my Context, too! Its input does overload pretty easily, so it sits pretty near the front of the effects loop.
I'm stoked to look into the Seymour Duncan Silver Lake. The Auto-Swell setting on the DL4 was my favorite so this seems to be my cup of tea. Also, the OBNE PROCESSION on the trem setting is my favorite from that pedal too. Love my Hardwire Supernatural Ambient verb. The plate mod and shimmer settings are amazing.
Song that comes to mind is "Pretty Girl at the Airport" by The Avett Brothers. The reverb on the vocals makes the song all the more melancholy
Thanks for this extraordinary episode!!!
Dead Can Dance - The Host Of Seraphim - There are no words, you have to hear it.
Personal fave reverb EQD: Ghost Echo. I'm not into complex reverb myself, I like pretty and simple... :)
saw them live - was pretentious
@@jackbenson8228 They make some extraordinary music... just ignore Brendan Perry's other interests.
The Empress Reverb...The ghost and beer settings. Have you tried it, Josh?
Song: Wasyeland, Baby. Hozier. Vocal has a trem/verb.
Totally agree. Empress Reverb Ghost is my favorite reverb ever. ....Also just saw Hozier live and it was the best.
Simply AMAZING! Thank u - it actually was relaxing and enjoyable
Thumbs up
Again, great!!! Look forward too these videos, every week
It would be awesome if you could do other “Extraordinary...” videos for other effects, like “Extraordinary Delays, Extraordinary Chorus, Extraordinary Fuzz etc...”. This kind of video it’s groundbreaking for everybody interested in strange sound, even for a drummer like me! You’re great!
I love my Hungry Robots Stargazer V2. A beautiful modulated dual reverb
Dan Johnson came down here to suggest the stargazer and starlite, hungry robot makes some absolutely killer stuff
I enjoy my Wash (V2). I want to pick up a Stargazer and a Moby Dick.
Great insights into some esoteric reverbs. Thanks Josh!
Thank You so much for making such awesome videos!!!!!!!
Look, I know you prolly feel funny including one of your own effects but, The J.H.S. Alpine reverb is not only lush, beautiful and spacious but you included an effects loop in it! When I use my
E.H. Pitchfork in the loop I get such a celestial sound that just floats there.. It's crazy beautiful!! Everyone should AT LEAST try one out!
P.S. Since there is an effect loop in this pedal, the possibilities are endless! Unlike other reverbs you are NOT stuck with one sound (effect) besides the reverb itself. Great foresight on your part!
My Verby Album: Neko Case's Fox Confessor
My Pedal: Strymon Flint
Love yer vids, Josh. Keep 'em coming.
I second both Neko Case and the Strymon.
Killer Album
I've been watching every episode week after week for quite a while now and although I always enjoy them, this one was extraordinary to me! Thanks for putting this together, I really loved it!!!!
Just as a side note, maybe the Meris Mercury 7 could have been mentioned too, I just recently saw a demo of it and I was amazed - just as much as by the Meris Polymoon mod delay... But even without this it was the best episode for me. :) cheers Josh, you absolutely ROCK!!!! \m/
I've always thought of reverb as the wine of the pedal world. To the inexperienced any wine or reverb you do. You tend to add far too much to the mix. But as you age you start to dial it back and you taste the notes and notice the subtleties. Great video and congratulations on reaching 100k subs!
The Offspring setting sounds really nice, wish it was a standalone pedal.
I need that chase bliss dark world. I need it!
Say it like a hundred times to believe it... That's what I'm doing
I need the amount of money it takes to buy it! 😂
Josh, talking nice about other brands is creating a bigger market for all and making guitar music alive by pushing it forward. Better music is more good! Thankx!
The Caroline Meteore reminds me of my Premiere spring reverb - really gritty and if you crank up the amount of reverb, the reverberations seem to smack each other into overdrive. Very unique sound. Thanks for another cool video, John. Er, Josh.
