La Nocive – reverb

A reverb of the analogue vintage style series. You can not live without it.

La Nocive is build with the newest of the Belton brick, the BTDR-3H reverb chamber. And it sounds pretty good! This is not a real spring reverb, nor a clean digital one; it’s a little rowdy when push to the limit, but it has such a pleasing sound that you will want it on your pedalboard. It is dirty, sixties classic, and even big plate if you like.

Its slightly metallic spring sound feels like standing in a 30 x 40 space with a high 16 feet ceiling and wooden carpeted floor. When fixed at about 30-40 ms, its delay time is similar to a traditional Fender reverb tank. The circuit of the module simulates decay time close to a wall reflection.

REVERB:
The control knob for the level of the effect signal. Fully CCW, no reverb CW to increase the signal.

DECAY:
Turn CW to increase the length of the reverberation signal, alike the number of time the sound is reflected on the walls. It ranges between .5 to 3.3 seconds.

DRY:
This controls the amount of dry signal. It can be used in Tail Bypass mode to give a clean boost.

TREBLE/BASS:
These two control knobs shape the frequencies, basic cut, and boost functions. Turn clockwise to increase and counterclockwise to decrease the amount of treble or bass.

La Nocive comes with two cermet trimmers controlling the volumes of the signal that come in and out of the pedal so to match any sources, guitar pickups or keyboard line out.

A 2PDT switching for Tail Bypass is on the left side. This is a fully buffered switch that keeps the effect going on until it completely fades out.

A true bypass 3PDT switching is on the right side. This kills the effect instantly.
