Easy DIY Reverb Pedal - No Belton Brick!

So after watching the new Elvis movie and being inspired by old school slap-back reverb...
Watch me take you through a very simple DIY reverb circuit using the PT2399 karaoke chip.
Great sounding reverb with slap-back echos and even some self oscillation.
make one yourself and re-live those retro memories
Skip to the demo here (Recorded on cassette for extra vintage feel!): 05:09
Vero layout here:

Go watch the new Elvis movie and listen to the soundtrack!

    FYI, The sound goes out of sync with the video because the sound was recorded to tape and ya know tape it just plays at its own analogue speed, which ain't the same as digital film etc, you get it. cheers and thanks for watching.

    Played back from tape it just sounds so legit black metal...I love it. Analog delay is huge for lofi styles of music. I have a Space City dual analog BBD with feedback.... it's got the darkness for days.

    Dude so awesome. Great playing and thank you for taking the time to record it all to cassette. You’re a goat.

    Love your work. These chips are really fun to play with. I buy the ready made circuit boards with the voltage step down ic on them. I desolder few bits, adda few bits. You can create some wild delay and or moise pedals with them.

    Nice playing! 🎸 Just wondering, I note you have a Fostex X-12. Do you use it with the original PSU supplied with the recorder? I have one and noted the power plug supplied is quite a bit higher voltage than specified on the stated PSU requirements, as printed on the bottom cover of the unit. 11-15 volts is on unit yet the power plug gives about 18, with load, motor overheats and slows down. With mine, I built a 12 volt regulated PSU and it functions perfectly. Also, would like to experiment with chip, as you suggest. Nice upload, thanks for information. 🙂

    No it’s not the original PSU. I just use what is recommended for the unit and it has worked fine. Please have a look at my more recent videos as I show more detail on the use of this machine in tape looping and general function. I am also about to do a video on adding a pitch knob to the unit, so please subscribe if you want to see that. Yes there are many many circuits available that use the PT2399 echo chip, happy experimenting! Thanks for watching my videos! UA

    Hi , In the schematic, are there ceramic capacitors of 100nf and polyester capacitors of 100? That's the only doubt I have. Thank you very much!"

    Not sure what you mean. I just used what I can get my hands on, it sounded ok to me, the bulk of the sound is coming from the chip anyhow. Could be better cleaner with ceramics yeah.

    does playing it back from tape change the sound inany way? When you are playing it does it sound the same in real life?

    All I know is it’s called a pseudo reverb by Culture Jam. Have a look at the vero layout and reverse engineer it maybe. It’s all based around that chip and there are many other circuits like this where you may find a schematic. Good luck

    Never said it was a guide on how to build it. I am discussing the circuit and how simple it is with a sound demo. There are a lot of vids on my channel that take you through how to make circuits on vero board if you want to check these out. Cheers for watching.
