T.C. Electronic Hall of Fame
T.C. Electronic's reputation is built on a
foundation of standard-setting modulation
and sublime delays and reverbs, so it should
be no surprise that the company's Hall of
Fame reverb pedal can conjure up a really
happening plate sound. That's not all it can
do, though, as it's outfitted with 11 different
reverbs, stereo ins and outs, controls for
decay, tone, and level, a Short/Long decay
switch, and absolutely stunning audio
quality. This complete control set lets the
plate reverb enthusiast recreate any plate
sound imaginable, from a classic, Floyd-like
EMT-140 tone, to a warm, diffuse shower of
metallic resonance that would be rather
challenging to finagle with a real plate. And
of course, T.C.'s TonePrint technology gives
one the capability to create and download
all manner of custom sounds, including
Paul Gilbert's "Oh, That's Nice" toneprint,
which is an EVH-inspired plate that's sure
to delight any brown sound fan. The very
affordable Hall of Fame offers an incredible
amount of bang for the buck, and is among
the finest reverb boxes on the market.
