What's good micro sized reverb?

Since I bought the 30w mooer micro amp, I've been putting together a small pedalboard to work as grab and go amp. One thing I haven't found yet is a great sounding reverb in micro size.

I had shimverb earlier that I didn't like at all. I thought it too clear and sterile, didin't quite sound like classic reverb effect, nor the real echo either.

Now I have Mooer echoverb, where the delay is great, but reverb side sounds like speaker in a plastic bucket. Hideous.

Any suggestions?

Mini Hall of Fame is fantastic, especially if you download the editor on your computer. Here’s my review from a while ago:

Well... I took a shot on a used Hall of Fame Mini. This thing is awesome, definitely got a spot on my "grab and go" rock board. (I have a Blue Sky and Supermoon for my main, big board) I basically configured a plate reverb with modulation... However I tied the (single) knob to the following parameters:

-Fx Mix (ramping up like the stock model)
-Modulation Mix (0% for the first half of the sweep, then increasing from there)
-Decay (Ramping up from ~2 seconds up to ~8 seconds at max)

This is awesome, for the first 1/4 of the sweep its a subtle plate reverb, the next quarter is a little longer and higher mix reverb, then you start to get some modulation with the reverb, then the final quarter is a heavily effected modulated long verb.

With the sweep of one knob I can add a little "air" to the tone, up to a 70's/80's Rock reverb a la VH, then various levels of modulated delay for shoegazey/post-rock style washes. Just need to tweak the dry level at the top of the range. I might have to pickup some of the other TonePrint pedals, this one is very powerful but easy to tweak.

Sounds really great. I guess that's what I'm going to get once it comes up. (I've been collecting this from classifieds to keep it low budget)

I just got a Donner Revecho. It's slightly bigger than mini-size, but it's a really sweet reverb and tapey sounding echo/delay in one pedal. On/off switch for each, and if you hold the delay's switch down for 2 seconds, it activates tap tempo. The verb goes from barely there to cavernous soundscape. I like it a lot.

Mini HOF here - with available tone prints, can’t go wrong.

The HOF is awesome as long as spring reverb emulation isn't your priority. It's not bad, but it's not its best-sounding most realistic setting. Other than that, it's fantastic.

Damn. That's exactly the reverb I prefer.

I never really use more of it than a touch to make sound a little bit bigger and add a hint of clang.

Revecho looks interesting.

In that case, to my original suggestion of the Mini HOF, let me add the Malekko Spring:

Re: What's good micro sized reverb?

HoF mini is nice, it works proper on an isolated psu, on a 1spot it can give a whine, the full size one works on either without bugs.

Malekko is great too for spring.

The Revecho is touchy in the subtle settings, but it’s there. There’s no spring sound, but I can get slap back, room, cavern, a good plate emulation, and all the ambient trippiness. It’s a great bang for the buck.

I picked up a Byang Baby Boom Tri Reverb for my little PRS MT 15 that sounds really nice. $50 shipped off Reverb well built and quiet. Like it better than the HOF I had.

The Mooer Shimverb is a classic in a little package
 
Re: What's good micro sized reverb?

I like the baby boom tried reverb

Its standard pedal size though, not micro
