Must be my day for reviews, just did one over on microphones....anyway, don't want to sound like I'm raving about everything today, but I purchased a Kurzweil Rumour a few weeks ago, finally had time this week in the studio to give it a good run through....this thing is amazing! Makes me wonder what the big daddy "KSP8" would be like (sigh), although all reports say same sound, not nearly as tweakable...I can live with that, you could to (probably) once you hear the presets and see how easy it is to adjust the available parameters.
Previously, I've been using Lexicons (MPX1,MPX500,LXP15II,MPX100) as well as an Ensoniq DP2 and a Yamaha Rev500 to cover my reverb needs....should have bought Lex PCM's, but I have to say now I'm glad I didn't...don't get me wrong, I know what I'm comparing this to is not the be all, end all (by any means) in digital reverb, but I'm so convinced this is the best I can do (within my budget), I'm buying another Rumour(replacing the Lex100, Yamaha Rev500, and "maybe" the Ensoniq DP2...can't decide if I really want to let it go).
Anyway, don't want to get into all the "catch phrases"...nice tails, crisp, detailed...all of that, since sound is so subjective anyway, just let me say run, don't walk to the nearest place that has a demo unit and give it a listen...if you're used to "very" high end units you "may" not be overly impressed (wouldn't be surprised if you are however) but most everyone else should be...closer to Lexicon than TC variety (my preference anyway) so keep that in mind. This thing is the real deal in my mind, I couldn't be happier with this purchase, ranks up there with the RNC (wish it was that cheap though!)
