Minim Reverb Delay and Reverse
Immediate Ambience Machine
Looking back on an inspiring year of collaboration with Datachoir, Old Blood Noise Endeavors created Minim, a new pedal built from the foundation laid out by Rêver. Inside is a newly voiced reverb with harmonic tremolo, a modulated delay with nearly infinite repeats available, and a reverse section selectable between normal speed or double speed. Sat next to the Rêver, it’s like a long lost sibling. Put both on your board and see how well they get along.
Minim features:
A modulated reverb with controls for mix, modulation, and decay
A post-reverb modulated delay with controls for volume, delay time, and feedback
A reverse section with controls for mix and speed (for double time effects), activated with a clever footswitch for momentary or latching operation
Order switching to put reverse first in the chain for ambient wash or last in the chain for glitchy textures
Expression jack for external control of the Reverse mix
Internal trimpot to control output level
Relay bypass switching and standard 9VDC center negative power

What began as a simple request for a vocal version of an Old Blood effect spiraled into a multi-function device with 10 new effects, versatile in/out and send/return sections oriented toward any instrument you want to throw at it, and ample control over all elements. It’s the new multi-tool for effects lovers on stage and in studio.

MAW features:

• XLR preamp for use with microphone level signals

• Switchable saturation section with blend, volume, and tone controls

• Two independently controlled effects sections with modulations, delays, reverbs and octaves, and controls over mix and two parameters of each

• A send/return to patch in external effects

• Post-saturation dry output for mixing versatility

• Relay bypass switching with momentary or latching functionality and effects trails

• Standard 9VDC center negative power

The Old Blood Noise Endeavors Expression Slider is a fader for use with any pedal that has an expression input. Simply use a TRS cable to plug the Expression Slider into the Expression input and use the slider as you would a knob or expression pedal. Suggested uses: strap it to your mic stand to adjust your favorite setting without bending down, keep it at your studio console to control a parameter while tracking, use the indicators to mark your favorite settings, or simply replace a knob control with a slider because let's face it: sliders are cool. Unsuggested uses: Unintended excess weight from use with foot while standing may cause damage to the device. Read: Don’t use your foot.
