Supermoon(s)

Post by DesmondWafers » Fri Apr 28, 2017 11:37 pm

How do you guys like the variations of the supermoon reverbs? I love my red panda context, but I wanted something a little more out there. I had a regular supermoon for a short time, but wanted 100% wet. Recently bought a supermoon limited, which supposedly is like a chrome but with more modulation. I know at least one person here has one, I've seen it mentioned. Sure, I could just wait until next week when it arrives, but I need opinions!

I have a super moon chrome. I love the sound of it but my only compliant is it has a loud sweeping sound when the pedal is engaged and I'm not playing guitar. It's really annoying and prevents me from recording with it. I'm not sure if my pedal is faulty or if this is a commm problem.

I'm not an afficionado of reverb, but I do have a Supermoon Chrome.
I like it, but because it's a pretty specific effect, it isn't the only reverb I use (I also have an EarthQuaker Devices Avalanche Run).
I had a Red Panda Context, which I thought was great, but I decided I needed a change and I don't regret letting it go.

I had a supermoon black and it definitely had a sweeping/modulated white noise in the background that i didn't really like. I could hear it when i was not playing, and also faintly in the background of my signal while playing.

Hmmm maybe it's just a problem in general with these pedals. When I use it live the sweep doesn't bother me but when I'm record I find the tracks unusable which is a shame cause I really the sound

Wow. I guess I should've asked that question, as well. I sold mine on because of that sweeping background sound. The person who bought it doesn't seem to mind. I liked the effect, but that sound ultimately turned me off.
