Should I keep it?

[la szum]

If only you were closer, I'd let you give the Lynx X a spin

To be honest I think it's a little over hyped here but it's a good amp nonetheless!

Applicable to damn near everything we buy ever!~!

The only, ONLY thing that the TMP has that piqued my interest is the convolution reverb, but that’s not enough to push me over the edge.

Besides, if enough people get aroused by that reverb it’s only a matter of time until Cliff brings it to the Axe FX…

The Suhr is a nice box. I own the IR version and it works great.

Of course @JiveTurkey must have one of the 2.

Why don't you all just buy a reverb pedal at a fraction of the cost?

Listen I'm all for buying things I don't need but there are so many cool reverb pedals out there that if someone's sole purpose was for a good spring reverb, there has to be a better option than the $1800 TMP (not that JT is doing this)

Is there one out there that sounds like the TMP? I’ve been on a casual hunt for a really good spring reverb pedal for years.

The UAFX Golden Reverberator is pretty damn good!

Unfortunately... you'd have to give money to UA

One doesn't want to encourage them, and their shenanigans!

I was under the impression that reverb samples needed to be so long that they were necessarily highly latent, which is manageable for a DAW but not a guitar processor. It's been a while, though, so maybe I am wrong. Maybe the spring reverbs are short, though. It'd be interesting to know if they are costly in terms of latency on the TMP.

Also, IIRC, @FractalAudio was claiming that algorithmic reverbs were 'better' than convolution reverbs when the high quality verbs dropped for the Axe.

EDIT: Okay here is a reference: https://forum.fractalaudio.com/threads/Amp where I'm at.176587/post-2146237

Looks like FAS already has some "support" for convolution Reverb as long as the sample is short (FullRes IR length). I.e. just load the verb IR into the IR player and go.

That said, though, I would guess memory would be a problem for doing too much beyond the above, since the MK1 does not even support FullRes.

Also looks like the context of the comments were regarding Amp where I'm at rather than general reverb 'betterness'.

Have you checked out UA Golden Reverb or GameChanger Audio?

Don‘t make me put down this beer and go down the YouTube rabbit hole. Just…. Don’t.

Yeah, a real tube spring reverb would be cheaper.

I built a unit about 10 yrs ago and there is a lot of nuance that makes them special.

Just took a quick look at Leon Todd’s review/demo. Dammit.

$400 for essentially (in my case) a one trick pony. But it’s such a niiiiiice trick…

Ask Cliff

My Suggestion just buy all of them and play whichever you feel like on any given day

Since this guy tricked some of y'all into TMP, I'm sure he can do the same with Surfybear.
