oceans 11 reverb

[Briansol]

I've been using a Talisman for a few years now and it's great. But, it's a 1-trick pony being a plate verb.

So, i decided i'd move that to more of a 'utility' function and get something more versatile to get into other areas like spring and shimmer. I picked up an O11 pretty cheap and the demos on YT were pretty good.

Man, this pedal sucks or I just can't tweak it correctly. The pate sounds like absolute shit compared to the talisman and the rest of the settings are just useless.

Is is me? or am i doing something fundamentally wrong with it? i've been through the manual and all the settings just sound so line6 from 1999 - digital crap, thin, shrill.

I actually thought it was a pretty decent reverb, for the money. Certainly better than the HoF2.

yeah, i know. and all the recordings on youtube sound awesome.. but mine doesn't. lol so i'm wondering if its just me/my setup or i'm missing some key setting

I’ve futzed with it a lot in the past, but don’t recall there being any big “gotcha” settings on it, tbh. Maybe you just don’t gel with it? It does have some hidden settings on it, but I don’t think any of that would necessarily cause it to sound bad. Unless maybe you got a dud?
