What do you think, new Belton brick (BTDR-3), FV-1 or something else?



I swore I read somwhere this was the Belton BTDR-3 but I can not find the source now. I really think this pedal nails that true spring sound.

Thoughts?

Hmmm.
Doesn't sound quite like what I expect from the brick, but I've got a few reasons to think brick:
1) If it were FV-1, I think there'd be a mode switch for different types of reverb.
2) New reverb pedal comes around the same time as the release of a new brick.

Is it Jack DeVille who designed this one? He did couple pro circuits using the FV1 and locking it in certain mode and work around that sound.

It could also be other DSP bricks that Belton's offer.

I doubt it's the new belton to be honest.

I would think its the same DSP processor they have used for their other recent delays (Belle Epoch and Echorec).

Yeah, I'd put money on it being an FV-1 with custom Eprom.

FV-1  ;)

Much cheaper to bulk buy FV-1s and EPROMs than the bricks!  8)

On a lighter note... the name?? Is it from HER?

So glad I wasn't the only one who thought that. ::)

I think any guy around 30 should remember Topanga. I wonder what ever happened to the people from Boy Meets World...

She was on the cover of Maxim a couple of months back.  I don't remember what the article said she was doing though.....

The rest of the cast is the road band for Marilyn Manson.

Wasn't she hosting some kind of sports show or something like that?

Kinda where she stands in front of a green screen and she presents video replays??

EDIT: It was called "The Dish"

My guess is Topanga Canyon in California:



Canyon= natural reverb

Her IMDB photo does her NO justice.


But yes Topanga Canyon most likely.

AlanP are you in America? It ended in 2000. Depends on your TV watching in school.
