Shimmer Topic Revisited....

[zozoe]

Greetings,, I already own a TC Hall of Fame 2 (my 1st reverb ever), & I'm smitten with 2 particular sounds; the Shimmer & the verb w/pre-delay...

I realize it's a VERY crowded room with waay tooo many choices out there, but for a pedal that excels & specializes in SHIMMER, I'm down to the TC Flouresence & possibly the Joyo Atmosphere. TC Elec. has been very good to me on stage & in the studio for 40+ yrs., & their Flouresence pedal seems truly, but not exclusively, geared to the shimmer-head,,,,me. I just caught a few videos on the Joyo, but I know nothing about them...Again, in a shimmer-based pedal, & anything that I might not be aware of, & very close to $100??

Is the TC made for me, or what?

I hear the angels calling~~

Many thanks, again....

Definitely more than $100 but you might want to put this on the GAS list.

I've seen a Keeley Omniverb on the local Craigslist. Only $80. Seriously considering it for my Picovalve.

EHX Canyon has Shimmer. Can be had used for $140-150

Zoom MS50G has Shimmer and a couple other effects that can simulate Shimmer or stack to enhance Shimmer, like reverse reverb and octave delays. You can get the Zoom for $100

H9 has unlimited beautiful Shimmer potential -but for a very mega church price point..

Best I have found for Shimmer are the Neunaber verbs. My $200 Neunaber Seraphim I bought for a live board has quickly replaced my $300 Strymon Blue Sky on my Church board.
If you want a MONSTER Shimmer tone in a unit that also does a switchable on the fly killer verb check out this little thing!

That was actually a hard demo to watch.

Boss RV-6 has shimmer and is around that price used. It's a bit metallic sounding for my taste but if you set the tone low it's great.

I bet you could get a lot of custom control over shimmer if you purchased a delay pedal with an effects loop, and then threw a pitch shifter into it.

Really, a reverb and pitch transposer set to 100% wet in parallel with the original signal. I was doing this with my old ART SGE in the late 80s...now it is in a tiny pedal..go figure!

Thnx,, on the Seraphim v1 & v2,, any major diff? They both seemingly have that long touch sensitive option....?? H9 is crazy expensive,,, and a shimmer 'dedicated' pedal is where I'm headed,,, Seraphim, Flouresence, and the Supernatural as an afterthought,,,

Sold my Supernatural after getting my Neunaber Seraphim and my Strymon Blue Sky got moved to my play out small board. I have the V2 and love it.
