Very easy to use... every connector and control is well labeled and obvious
the manual is available online in pdf form it outlines the basic usage of the unit but omits information about the purpose and usage of the "defeat" jack on the rear of the unit
Sound Quality
:
7
currently using this through the effects loop on my amp (Behringer GM110)
no added noise that i can hear
16 presets (6 "small", 7 "large", 2 gated, and a reverse mode which is a unique sound kinda like a delay)
mix knob has a very wide range i personally prefer to keep it at the 10 o clock position for my guitar setup
input and output level knobs allow for plenty of adjustment
the sound quality of the unit is pretty good, newer reverb units can give better sound quality though
Reliability

No Opinion
seems solidly built i believe i could gig with it without a backup though i have heard about issues with the wall-warts

a decent reverb unit from the mid-late 80s... newer reverbs offer better sound quality but this is still pretty good and has plenty of variety to the reverbs

Just figure out how to use this box with your mixer and you're almost done (send/return). The rest is just toying around with the settings to get the best sound out of it.

The quality of the sound is quite amazing for use with a decent mixer. Almost no white noise...

This unit is quite old but it has got a sturdy aluminium case. The power-plug needs to be replaced soon because the plug fell out several times. Everything else is ok!
