There's this knob on my amp............
As Andy has alluded to.... --how about a real reverb (you know the ones with a reverb pan and some tubz) then the verb doesn't have to have (L)imitation....
Ahem! Real Reverb

The Nova Reverb is cool for a digital Reverb.
There's also the Holy Grail Plus, which has more options than the regular Holy Grail.

the Dr. Scientist Reverberator is the best ANALOG reverb I have heard in a pedal. It's amazing. For digital, probably the TC.

I was reading an old copy of GP yesterday and read this article. I don't have any experience with either one of these and don't know if you're looking for a spring sound in a stompbox, but anyhow:
Boss FRV-1 ?63 Fender Reverb vs. Lee Jackson Mr. Springgy, Barry Cleveland
2009 AL PBB Hardtail, MM90s & Piezo
2010 HH AL Hardtail Powder Blue
great little article, love the beginning where the real tube verb is talked about. no doubt about it really.
having used boss pedals it's no surprise to me that the FRV-1 is pretty good.

I use a real '64 Fender Reverb unit. Works great and sounds great.

This interests me.
Would reverb in a pedal be preferred to an amps reverb?
Assuming of course that certain amp companies produce better reverb.

I run a Lexicon Alex on top of my amp, in the loop, and control it with a TRS stomp box. I've never been a big fan of reverb, but the few times I use it during a gig this unit has done well for me. My opinion is that natural reverb is the best, followed by pedals/rack. I have yet to hear a spring reverb that sounds fantastic - maybe the ones I have heard just haven't been used the right way, and I'm so used to the tweaking ability of the pedals/rack it puts me off to the spring.

I buy my balls from the number one EBMM dealer in Australia, the all round nice guy and legendary Colin!His website is www.guitarplanet.com.au Give him a call to order your balls!!!!!
LOL - Yeah it takes a little time to get it going.
In answer to the live scenario - I am using it going XLR out stereo to the FOH and pumping myself through my monitor so I can hear myself of course. I have a TC Nova System in the FX Loop of the Eleven Rack for additional effects, stereo delays, expression pedal, etc... It sounds great. I recently also purchased a Morpheus DropTune and although I have some YouTube videos of the Eleven Rack and showing off some of my user presets (the presets it ships with I've had to modify quite a bit which is not abnormal...) I also have a demo of the Morpheus running into the Eleven Rack and recorded direct and not the usual LAZY route I take of using the mic on the video cameraLOL
Anyway check it out - oh and I am playing my JP6 DDII guitar which I L-O-V-E...
