So.....How many of you have the MidiVerb 4 (or an Alesis 'verbs). There is a setting on there "In a Cloud" that has so many possibilites after tweaking it a bit. If any one likes I can list the settings that I have. Any one else want to share?

Never played any Alesis stuff myself, but that's definitely a great name for a reverb setting!

I have an old microverb 3 that I use in my FX loop for the delay. It's been acting flakey on me lately, so I may dump it soon. I like all of the Alesis gear, pretty good stuff. The compressors / gates and eq's are great too. I'll probably get a newer Alesis verb of some sort.

It really is, it's so lush it's almost impossible to do anything with it, but a little tweaking and it's golden! I messed with it a bit and renamed it "Zoë Sleeps" after my daughter, because that's what she was doing when I was playing around with it.

How are the Compressors? I've been thinking of dumping my Digitech for a rack mounted compressor, but I'm not sure yet.

The rackmount 3630 compressor/limiter is excellent, tons of control. I had one for years and sold it because I didn't use it all that much, only when recording. I wish I had kept it because I'm starting to record again. You can't go wrong with it.
