I can't wait to hear this reverb applied over an entire mix of some Jazz, Ambient, or Minimalist kind of stuff. I could see myself putting in a loop and feeding every track on a record through it, to give it a coherent sense of physical space. I'm thinking of ECM kind of vibes like the reverbs on a Steve Tibbetts or Eberhard Weber album.
Magnificient !! I did tinker with a Raspberry Pi 3 to put it in a pedal for an IR convolution pedal (several seconds). It did sound great but certainly not as good as this !! Main issue was that there was no analog passthrough and latency was quite noticeable. I am going to try it again.. But this PolyVerbs pedal seems the best way to go. So simple and good sounding. Congrats.
I've been hoping someone would do something like this for a long time, and im not too surprised to see its poly considering they integrated irs into their beebo for some reverbs from what i remember
I had a Logidy Epsi impulse response convolution pedal a few years back, same concept but mono: sounded cold and digital , looking forward to try this stereo next gen pedal :)
Great video Michael @BigHairyGuitars ….I’m sold!! Any chance you’ll be creating some additional Bricasti IR’s? I’d purchase your M7 IR’s instantly. :-)
Cool! Yes, I have an early OS of the pedal. So once mine is up to date, I’ll be able to load my own IR’s. I’m going to make a pack of my favorite outboard and pedal reverbs in IR form. I’ll show it on my channel. 👍
It sounds very good. There is not a lot of information at this time. Could you load in something like a UAD reverb such as the Ocean Way or the 480L? Great demo, thanks!
Sounds intriguing but I've only had time to listen on iMac speakers. Will revisit through a proper stereo setup. Curious how well software reverbs with some modulation (esp. Lexicon) captured for this IR format will sound.
An IR cabinet pedal will be mono, and only long enough to deliver the VERY short millisecond IR that is needed for a cabinet impulse. Those cabinet pedals don't capture any of the room, nor are they capable of creating even a room reverb that you can blend with your tone.
Similar in the function. Verbs seems geared more to guitarists and pedalboards. TastyChips is more geared towards studio experimentation. For instance, the Tasty requires the USB drive to stay in the pedal in order to access the IR's. That's scary to me to have to leave a tiny USB drive in a pedal on stage. BUT, the Tasty allows you to load WAY more IR's (1 at a time) and shows the name of the IR you're chasing. The Verbs has 8, and you have to remember which slot you loaded them into.
Is this quality wise holding up with the bricasti for example and how many bricasti algorithms are in there? Do you feel your favorite reverbs from it are on level or higher than the best reverb plugins? Thanks man!
There's only 1 Bricasti patch stock in the Verbs. I'm still waiting on a firmware update so that I can load my own IR's. I'm going to try more Bricasti tones. I'll post on my channel as soon as it comes.
@@BigHairyGuitars has there been addition to number of Bricasti patches? I just saw this video and seriously consider getting this pedal. I have a Bricasti plug in I love
Finally. Guitarmarket is so lame, been asking for decades on fairs ,superbooth, boss strymon, eventide reps were like „why when we got algorithmic ones?There was one company made on went bust. Then the beebo. Now dedicated. Finally.
Tasty chips electronics created the integral dual convolver stompbox before poly created verbs. It doesnt do as long reverbs as the poly one but i prefer the tasty chips one, built wise. Dont get me wrong i like poly stuff too but i think they could use a bit better components.
I have the Tasty Chips pedal. It's not really meant for guitar players IMHO. You need to have the USB stick always in if you want to load your own IR's. That not really safe or practical, if this is on a touring pedalboard. I think the Tasty Chips is more of a studio experiment box. Still... kudos for Tasty Chips for making a killer innovative box!
The Beebo CAN do IR reverbs but it has a more limited decay length limitation. If you're doing room sounds, it's probably fine. OR, you can setup the Beebo for modulation and delay, while the Verbs brings the wetness 🥹
u can do this for free in a DAW and way more I do like the sound but game changer? I think my blue sky sounds better tbh and Valhalla Supermassive even has more interesting sounds than this pedal (imo) maybe its me correct me if i'm wrong but for what i've heard so far its not that special
we needed a pedal like this!!! BTW how is the latency on it?
Zero! Analog dry though!

Absolutely love this pedal !
Ya I'm gonna buy one of these. Amazing
I ordered it! Can’t wait to get it 😊
Sunset Sound Van Halen IR please!

LOVE THIS CONCEPT! Great review! thanks
Great Demo. My question is how are you going stereo trs to two amps? Through another pedal? Or a split trs cable? 👍

Beautiful verbs indeed!
Finally having IR based reverbs in pedal format is amazing. The price tag isn't even as bad as I expected.
Me too!
Am a Surf dude...Great Channel! subscribed...
That sounds killer!

Can it handle Line level signals? There's zero info in the web about the impedance
Sounds great, don't know how I'd feel with the interface on the pedal, but it is certainly cool and different.
No moving parts means less failure in theory.
👍🏿🤘Great demo. With delay next time please as well to hear how it stacks.
I'm planning on more demos.
Those reverbs are glorious but...I want knobs 😅
If there's ANY pedal that I could live without knobs, it's probably a reverb pedal... and a tuner.
Great video and playing! Curious what the noise level (white noise or hiss) is like? Thanks.
It sounds very good. There is not a lot of information at this time. Could you load in something like a UAD reverb such as the Ocean Way or the 480L? Great demo, thanks!
You would have to make an IR capture of them, then yes you can use those IR captures in the Verbs.
Can you run a sunset sound chamber or plate?
Does it have kill dry? A sort of important feature/omission. I hope it does.
Sounds intriguing but I've only had time to listen on iMac speakers. Will revisit through a proper stereo setup. Curious how well software reverbs with some modulation (esp. Lexicon) captured for this IR format will sound.
Have you found the time to listen through a proper stereo? Don't leave us hanging.
How is this any different than running any reverb pedal into a IR cabinet pedal?
An IR cabinet pedal will be mono, and only long enough to deliver the VERY short millisecond IR that is needed for a cabinet impulse. Those cabinet pedals don't capture any of the room, nor are they capable of creating even a room reverb that you can blend with your tone.
This is it what e nice pedal
OK , i need this and i didnt know it existed until 10 mins ago
Isn't the Tasty Chips Dual Convolver pretty much comparable to this?
Similar in the function. Verbs seems geared more to guitarists and pedalboards. TastyChips is more geared towards studio experimentation. For instance, the Tasty requires the USB drive to stay in the pedal in order to access the IR's. That's scary to me to have to leave a tiny USB drive in a pedal on stage.

And I JUST bought a Lexicon MPX-1 for reverb... this always happens to me.
Screw it, no regrets!!!
No Regrets! The MPX-1 is great! I think I have 9 different reverbs (not counting pedals) around here!
@BigHairyGuitars Heck, yeah!
Will it go stereo to 2 amps?
Is this quality wise holding up with the bricasti for example and how many bricasti algorithms are in there?
Do you feel your favorite reverbs from it are on level or higher than the best reverb plugins?
Thanks man!
There's only 1 Bricasti patch stock in the Verbs. I'm still waiting on a firmware update so that I can load my own IR's. I'm going to try more Bricasti tones. I'll post on my channel as soon as it comes.

Eric Johnson vibes in the caves!
For a 2 amp setup does this take a stereo input Y cable?
Yes.
Thanks
5:30 - perfect for Boys of Summer intro
Thank you Yamaha creating convolution reverb first, it used to be 4 rackspace box that cost like arm and three legs.
Sony (Sony DRE S777) had a big-ass one too that cost over $6000!!!!
Toilet paper dispenser spring reverb.
It would be cool if there was an IR of Tubeworks stereo Tube reverb rack unit....
I've been waiting,this pushes all the buttons.But UA makes great stuff too.
Finally. Guitarmarket is so lame, been asking for decades on fairs ,superbooth, boss strymon, eventide reps were like „why when we got algorithmic ones?There was one company made on went bust. Then the beebo. Now dedicated. Finally.
Made in Melbourne Australia ❤

Idk. Im a reverb junkie. Feels like I would get way to lost tinkering with this guy.
Obviously I want see you test out the new TC 2290 pedal vs the rack effect from the 80s
We all come from knobs, really, when you think about it.
Poly Beebo can do these as well?
The Beebo CAN do IR reverbs but it has a more limited decay length limitation. If you're doing room sounds, it's probably fine. OR, you can setup the Beebo for modulation and delay, while the Verbs brings the wetness 🥹
u can do this for free in a DAW and way more

I had the Beebo, terrible converters, they made the sound plastic. Latency was too high, sold after 2 weeks. I hope this is built better
There's zero latency for this, and no conversion of your dry signal in the Verbs pedal (it's analog dry through). 👍
Companies that don’t send you gear are fools.
Or realistic in the quality of their products……..
Tasty Chips Integral anyone?
Ieu ngeriii
"Game Changer" became a marketing cliche 5+ years ago - it is ALSO _the name of ANOTHER pedal company_ ya dingus
Underwhelming!
