Got a request for this one and we can always do with more reverb. It’s a simple one-knob BTDR-2 based circuit and should fit easily in a 1590B. Reverb brick and pot is populated on the solder side. Schematic for reference.
The Tenebrion was designed by CultureJam and is the further development of the Box of Hall reverb. It uses the Belton BTDR-2 reverb brick, which I’ve designed to fit on the solder-side of the circuit board. You should be able to squeeze it into a 1590B.
The Sentinel is a PT2399-based pitch modulator, delay, reverb and drone verb designed by Arnoud Philip (~arph) as part of the DIYSB 10th Anniversary design contest. It’s based on the Sewer Pipes ring-verb and the Noise Ensemble. Original thread here, schematic here. Should be able to squeeze it into a 1590B. Note: LED2 in the … Read more
Been a while since I did a reverb layout and this DeadAstronaut design does not disappoint. It’s not a true-bypass effect, but uses some JFET switching so that tails are present when you turn the effect off. Coda Effects actually has a really good write up on the design. Ended up doing this one in … Read more
Found this one over on FSB. It was designed by Induction and takes elements from the GGG D-Verb, BYOC 2-Knob, and CultureJam’s Box of Hall. Like those designs it uses a Belton BTDR-2 reverb brick, which can be mounted directly to the board from the solder-side. If you want a wetter sound, replace the marked … Read more
Here’s a reverb circuit that doesn’t require a Belton brick–the Equinox II by Valve Wizard. It uses 2, PT2399 delay chips with a pretty standard input/output buffer built around a TL072. The original uses a J112 for switching the tails function, but I’ve simplified that with a just DPDT footswitch. Use one side of the … Read more
Here’s a great sounding reverb designed by CultureJam, built around the typical Belton BTDR-2 reverb brick. I’ve laid it out for onboard pots and the BTDR-2 being mounted from the solder-side of the board.
