Spring Reverb
Spring reverb is an analog type of reverb that uses one or more metal springs to simulate sound reflections. The audio signal is sent through the springs, which vibrate and produce a distinctive mechanical reverb with a metallic, vintage, slightly gritty tone. It’s widely used in guitar amps, organs, and dub/reggae effects, adding a warm, retro character, often with a natural wobble or shimmer. It’s great for raw, lo-fi, or expressive sounds.
