Eventide Space

Bought one from Thomann, used for a few years, sold it to try other things, recently bought another one used, feel like a happy camper again.

There is a crazy amount of choice in good pedal reverbs these days, and everyone has their favourite (or favourites) regarding the algorithms, features, interface and what not. I do have several favourites depending on situation and use myself. Eventide Space is easy and straightforward to use for something as deep as it is, and leans very much toward "unnatural" sounding spaces. You won't get a decent spring or a very natural sounding hall here, but what you do get is fantastic sounding verbs from small "synthetic" rooms and halls to (by now overused) pitch-shifting shimmer verbs, and the huge, venerable Blackhole that still lives up to its name. There's a very decent variety in algorithms (not a dozen variations on the same theme like with some pedal verbs) and everything sounds good in an Eventide sort of way.

Space is also one of the few options out there that actually takes professional line levels properly. If you're running a line level effects loop, a hot guitar amp modeling rig, or a desktop synth studio, that's going to be a major selling point after trying out a few pedal verbs that clip way too easily.

I use the Eventide Space as a creative tool to influence music making and as a studio-quality effect that can be used in a live environment. I use it with Moog synth, acoustic instruments, vocals etc.

Pros
Build quality is very robust.
Great, BIG reverbs.
Many algorithms for traditional or experimental sounds.
Very flexible, programmable and customisable.

Cons
Learning curve can be intimidating, but worth persevering.
Experience/judgement needed to tame some of the wilder settings.

Overall
Highly recommended reverb/effects device that feels like it will keep you sound designing happily for years.

what can i say, it was the missing link in my rig, mainly modularsynth based.
in the meantime i got me a second SPACE. one is in the masterinsert of the desk for subtle Reverb purposes, one is on 1-2 Aux sends for more radical Reverb and FX purposes.
perfect for my modularsynth !
perfect for older rompler Keyboards/Pianos to get a nice but decent Reverb to that sound.
some people seem not to gel with the SPACE.
Give it enough time ! you have to get the hung for the parameters.
my Tip: probably use at first only a few algorythms.
use one or two.
The jammability of the SPACE is immens ! it is much more than a reverb.
it is FX ;)
happy wiggler cat here

There is no better reverb than this one - there is a reason this is an industry standard for so long. Every type of reverb you can imagine but the user interface is super fast and and it accepts synths as well, it can be used as a piece of outboard gear and so on. There are switches for the input and output of the unit which come in handy (do you need an instrument or line in level input and output), 3 footswitches that can provide different functions: shifting banks, tap tempo for some reverbs and my favourite thing - the hotswitch. You can literally set this thing to be used as a Freeze pedal from EHX, just put your length of the reverb on infinite/freeze on the hotswitch setting and you have a footswitchable Freeze pedal. Some algorithms provide a separate controllable delay unit, you can even use it just as a delay if you want that.

There are a tonne of features here, but not once was I overwhelmed because the user interface is clear, fast and it will not get in your way.
I mostly use it on a guitar and it's even better in stereo - the imaging is done properly (most of the reverbs and delays provide "stereo" image but in fact it's actually a fake dual mono signal).

Not everyone can afford this pedal, but when you think about it, it's not just a reverb pedal - it's a reverb, delay, freeze, tremolo and a semi-drone machine - it's worth every cent. Not to mention Thomann's reliability, great shipping times, tracking, warranty (they will fix ANYTHING).

First of all, eventide space pedal is my main reverb pedal. I use it in all of my guitar parts when i'm recording or even playing live. It provides great warm sound that you can edit in many many ways and experiment with its ten panel knobs. The quality of construction and sound, the crystal signal, the mono-stereo input-output option are giving to me a unique feeling that my guitar sound is painted by dark and warm textures that are floating into the infinite universe. This pedal is simple to use, just plug it and you're ready to play, but the longer you play the longer you dive into its possibilities. You can choose among 100 presets or create yours among the high quality algorithms it provides. I use the usb connection to upgrade the software of edit my presets on my PC. I use the midi connection to set some extra foot control. You may also achieve the last by connecting an aux switch with a stereo cable.
In conclusion, i'm 100% satisfied by eventide space pedal and i don't think i'll ever use another reverb. Blackhole algorithm is so unique and perfect that is clearly what i call "my kind of sound". So, if your type is quality sound and unique customization, go for it. It will never disappoint you.
