Fender Reflecting Pool Delay Reverb 5-stars Reviews

Watch out Strymon

This pedal is seriously good; I use it in my synth rig and the fact it is a reverb and/or delay makes it a very flexible unit.

Reverb has 3 types Hall/Room/Special and a switchable 3 variations within those. There is also an Extra knob which does various functions depending on reverb type.

Some epic ambient sounds can be produced of the "sky blue" type and Shimmer and Modulated options provide the most use for ambient style pad washes.

Delay also has three types - Digital/Analogue/Tape and three switchable options within that. The tape option has the most interesting effects and combined with the modulation controls you can get some epic lo-fi effects. Mixed in with the reverb there are endless possible combinations to suit most needs; for those using in a live environment it becomes an instrument in its own right.

Overall, incredible value for money, state of the art sounds and clarity and a very flexible reverb and delay all in one unit. I looked into the obvious pedals for what I wanted and realised I need two high end pedals to do what the Reflective Pool can do in one unit, and at a fraction of the cost. Doesn't come with power so make sure you have a spare 9v walwart.
