Thanks Gregory. I guess delving deep in both amp and M5's MIDI implementation chart will help shine a light on this...

Back when I was doing MIDI I'd rely on my Alesis Quadraverb to remap preset changes for devices that didn't have the capability.

Re: Reverb pedal with presets and midi

I think there's a huge gap in the market between the single reverb pedals (such as the TC Hall of Fame, Boss RV-6, Digitech Polara etc.) and the big super reverb pedals (Strymon Big Sky, Eventide Space, Boss RV-500 etc.).

I used to be a member of this forum 6-8 years ago and was unable to recover my password so I made a new account since I've been have more questions about pickups and whatnot lately. Anyway, I saw the banner ad on top of the forum asking if I had an idea for a pickup or a pedal. Why yes I do. Super cool idea to let us common folk in on the development process. So I clicked on it and submitted a proposal for a stereo reverb pedal similar in size and function as the Strymon Blue Sky, but with a few more reverb types (Hall, Plate, Room, Spring, Church, Shimmer, Modulated), and with the ability to store more on board presets that can be recalled with the second footswitch. At least 4 on board presets and the ability to call up dozens more with a midi switcher or usb device.

I've been looking for something like this for years, and the only thing I've found that is close to what I want is the Free The Tone Ambi Space. However, in Canada it's almost 500 bucks! I'm thinking something in the $200-250 range. The Source Audio Ventris reverb looks really nice, but judging from the threads on TGP it is a super reverb in a smaller package, with extremely deep editing and control. Also going to be expensive.

I want something that's relatively simple (no menu diving) for the plug and play guys but with good algorithms and sound quality that will keep up with the big boys. I don't need super deep editing, I just need several great sounding reverbs accessible with the tap of a switch. What say you guys, anyone else submit anything like that recently?

EDIT: $300 might be more the target price range, which is still cheaper than the big box reverbs and I'd still buy it.

So you mean like the SA Dimension Reverb but sounding better?

The Soundblox 2 Dimension Reverb offers 12 distinct shades of reverb. Choose from 6 reflectively diverse room sounds, two plate and two spring reverbs, modulation reverb, and echo. The pedal features a compact and durable cast aluminum housing plus 2 user presets — each with a dedicated footswitch. The assignable “Option” knob makes it possible to adjust 9 different parameters: wet/dry mix, time (i.e. resonance), bass, treble, pre-delay, diffusion, output level, modulation rate, and modulation depth.

Connect the Dimension Reverb to Source Audio’s Neuro Hub and tap into its MIDI capabilities. Save up to 128 presets recallable via MIDI program change (PC) messages from an external MIDI foot controller. The Dimension also features a special “trails»dquo; mode (a.k.a. soft bypass), which allows your reverberations to ring to completion after the pedal has been bypassed.

The Dimension Reverb’s Multi-Funtion In jack is compatible with any of Source Audio’s expression controllers: the Reflex Universal Expression Controller, Dual Expression Pedal, and Hot Hand 3 Universal Wireless Effects Controller. Assign external expression control to any of the pedal’s knob parameters or incorporate Reverb Send mode, which enables on-the-fly control over the amount of dry signal being routed through the reverb chamber.
