Customer Reviews
4 out of 5 (7 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Alesis Nanoverb 2"
Sound: The sound is decent, no hum or buzz or hiss detected at useable levels with a properly set up effects send/return loop. My lead singer really liked the Delay/Reverb preset 11. Feature: It's digital, it's quick and easy and has good sound. It has a footswitch jack, so if you use it on a guitar amp in an effects loop you can click on the effects with an optional footswitch. A minor downside: Alesis products often use a 9V AC adapter; that is the output voltage is AC, not DC, which are sometimes harder to find if you lose one, plus they're not compatable with a lot of common effects pedal adapters. This is a minor annoyance and a potential problem if you lose one just before a job. Ease of Use: Seems good. No learning curve here, just dial the dials 'til you find something you like. I put it in the loop on my 25 year old Peavey powered mixer, and it essentially gave it electronic effects just like a modern mixer has. The manual is pretty minimal, but this isn't something you need to haul the manual to the band job to figure out. Quality: Looks solid however the knobs stick out so there is always a potential for a drop and break. Value: Product is worth the price, and zZounds price is currently very competitive. Manufacturer Support: Never had the need to contact the company. The Wow Factor: This is a pretty cool little effects unit. They packed a lot of stuff in a small package, and kept it pretty simple and inexpensive. Overall: I have had experience with a prior series of Alesis Micro products, the Micro Reverb and the Micro Limiter, which are 1/3 rack space units. They were great little items, and I was looking for something similarly compact and simple that had decent quality. I've had the Nanoverb 2 (second generation) for a few weeks now, used it for practices and am satisfied with it. The item couldn't be simpler, but it is more than a one-trick pony, with a variety of effects and combo's, but I mainly bought it to use with an older powered mixer that did not have EFX built in, or to use for variations in a lead vocal channel on the main mixer. The unit has a clip light, a pilot light, level and mix controls. It works fine in mono, using the left channel. One thing to consider, is the size is a bit more than 1/3 and a bit less than 1/2 a standard rack. It's essentially a stand-alone unit for my purposes. Measure it up first if you need to rack mount it.

"nanoverb 2"
Overall: I needed this unit because the pa at two small places I play has no effects, and my vocals need all the help I can get! The nanoverb does help, and I will continue to use it, but I don't love the effects. They don't seem as crisp and clear as I'm used to. I use the reveb/delay setting to give the voice some body, and it does, but at the expense of some vocal clarity. But bottom line: I found a setting or two I can live with, and it does sound better than with completely dry setting, so if you need some wetting down, this is reasonable and portable. Seems well made.
Style of Music: I use this unit mostly for swing and gypsy jazz gigs. Some light pop gigs too.
