This almost 10 year old video is still closer to the Shields "reverse reverb" than almost any other. Most don't realize he didn't use the typical washed out reverse *reverb* on Loveless. He used the SPX-90 on early reflections setting, which basically does a clicky, delay-like sound that simulates the sound bouncing off of walls (early reflections). The setting is on reverse, so it ramps up in volume rather than tapers off. He didn't feed the reverse verb into a fuzz/drive, but that's a decent way to recreate the To Here Knows When sound specifically, since Kevin did some weird re-amp technique to make the guitar sound ridiculously distorted. It was either guitar into the SPX straight to tape or the SPX to an amp then tape. Then the tape was fed through the amp again. So simply, it ended up sounding like guitar > reverse reverb > overdriven amp. On Loveless, it's only on 2 songs, maybe 3. You can hear the effect super clearly on the drum intro to Soon. It's the clicky delay you hear. It's amusing how their earlier stuff is far more drenched in this effect than Loveless. On some of their EPs and Isn't Anything, he used a Midiverb patch which has a more expected huge reverb wash. The SPX was also used on some of the EPs, and certainly was live on songs like Slow and Thorn.
@a w yeah, some get issues. Capacitors only last so long, so pretty much any decades old piece of equipment can have cap failures. Some of the resistors get pretty hot, so it's not a bad idea to check their accuracy and replace in the unlikely case that their value drifted. Just like old amplifiers or other serviceable equipment. On top of that, they used a brown foam-like glue on many of the components on the power supply. Not only does this stuff become slightly conductive over the years, but it also was corrosive and could eat at the copper legs on resistors, capacitors, and diodes. My SPX-90 worked fine when I got it, but I removed all of the glue they put on it and replaced some of the capacitors just for extra reliability and longevity (not that I use it that regularly).
@a w You can use other fx with the classic, smooth reverse gate reverb for sure. MBV used the midiverb initially. I think Bowery Electric used a quadra on their guitars, and I love that sound. I use a Polara usually, if I don't feel like setting the SPX up and also having my bypass signal messed up. Basically, it's just 100% wet, and you have to learn to play things early so you can stay in time. There will be a setting that just feels "right" to play in. With the reverb too short or weak, the sound will be choppy, with the reverb too long, it'll take too long for the note to develop and will be impossible to keep timing. As for the settings on the SPX itself, for anyone interested, it's in the early reflection mode, the type is Reverse (Kevin said he also used the Random early reflection mode) room size is on max, the low pass filtering is off, pre-delay is on minimum. The liveness setting, which changes how "live" and reflective the room is, I usually keep pretty high, like 7/10. On a forum, a poster who apparently set up for MBV shows said Kevin kept it at 3-4, but I've also read he probably just turned everything up pretty high. In live recordings, it doesn't sound like it was set to 3-4 at all. Of course, these settings, won't mean much for other FX units.
@@samueld92 Some is from Kevin himself, in interviews, some is from observation, whether it's listening or looking at photos. I've spent way too much time researching the band. Not all of it I claim to be 100% the hard truth, but it depends on what part. Like, how he got the To Here Knows When sound is from Kevin in an interview. The part about the SPX reverse only being used on 2 (possibly 3) songs on Loveless is just from listening (quite blatantly, imo).
OK, I think I speak for every shoegaze and MBV fan here when I say you've done nothing short of a superb job of recreating the sound and being clear about how to achieve it in a no-nonsense and honest way. Great work man, if i ever meet you have a pint on me.
A lot of so-called great guitarists would freely admit that they have no idea how Kevin Shields achieved a lot of the sounds heard on loveless. Punk was all about feel, which stressed that it's not the number of notes you play that matters but the way you play them. Kevin's style represents the most extreme interpretation of that philosophy. It's a texture-based approach to rock music, and no one has come closer to giving music a physical presence.
These settings worked for me on the Stereo Memory Man: Blend: 3 o'clock Decay: 12 o'clock Filter: 12 o'clock Repeats: 12 o'clock Delay: about 10 o'clock - you want to adjust this to where the green light is flashing fastest without just being a solid green light Also play around with the tone knob on your guitar as I found this affects the response of the delay quite a bit.
This sounds great and indeed very close. Kevin Shields actually stated in the recent interview with The Quietus that " There was less technology involved than people imagine" I think a lot of their unique sound came from manipulating the tremolo arm (see the entire quietus interview online)
Yep! I believe Kevin actually used the SPX-90 on the intro drums to soon. The same/a similar setting he'd use on Blown A Wish and To Here Knows When. Sounds just like it.
Julian A what’s are you opinions on what pedals he uses on Soon live? If you look at 11publishings Instagram you’ll see they got pics of his pedal rack.
NOTE FOR PEOPLE TRYING THIS OUT: Ignore the idea of "reverse" reverb or echo. You DO NOT use it for this sound. He was not clear about this. The settings listed in the description are correct, using "Multi-Tap 1 Sec". Go to that mode, and enter in the settings. Once you enter them, compare the muted string "clicks" between your guitar and the video. Adjust "Delay" and "Repeats" until the clicks sound and respond the same. This should give you the desired sound from the Memory Man. Then do small tweaks to all knobs until you get it where you like it.
Can I make this sound with my pedal with just 3 knobs : delay time, feedback, level ? And a switch to choose delay note interval : quarter note, dotted eighth, quarter note+dotted eighth
@@100PercentJoseph I know this is an old comment, but I've got a question - could you do this with the EHX Canyon? The multitap mode has a secondary volume swell setting where you can make the repeats start from complete silence and they get progressively louder. So theoretically you could make the same kind of sound if you set it on super fast repeats, right?
@@alien9422 I got a TC Electronic Flashback X4 instead, mainly for the looper. There's a reverse delay on there as well so I could get similar results. Although I tend to use my buddy's Minifooger MF Delay for general delay sounds.
Quite amazing what happens when you combine the two pedals, the sound morphs into something entirely different. I had always wondered how it is possible to make a guitar sound like a melted chainsaw.
Nice video mate. You are better than you give yourself credit for. The amount of likes should be a good indicator of that. You seem like a nice bloke too. Keep up the good work.
I was just yesterday to a MBV gig and you nailed the sound really nicely! Especially with such simple setup (oposed to kevin shields pedal board containing tons of pedals!) also compared to other vids on youtube! Great job!
Amazing, simply amazing. Been trying to replicate the exact sound for years, buying pedal and pedals but never got the real deal...I'm gonna sell that Deluxe memory man crap and buy a one with reverse delay!
I dont really listen much to shoegaze but these soundscapes are inspiring as hell So I bought myself a digiverb for gated/reverse reverb and I'm about to try new things
the reverse reverb trick on this is why its my favourtie pedal. i've been trying to tell the spx and midiverb users. the sound on the smmh is so much better than midiverb, though the spx are good but more ambient-it sounds like reverb rather than turning your guitar into a string synth machine like this one. I'm going to try out the cathedral next rather than an spx..
Used this video as reference 13 years ago when I made an album and oh boy am I back to remember what it was I actually did! Lost my memory man many years ago, may need to buy another
And now that I listen to it again; I think what they did to make it sound like a 'wheeeeee wooooooooosh' like that soupy sound without the strokes on the strings, is in the mixing on the record, they only used the wet output , and they upped the fx on the mix so it was obscuring all the strumming sounds. Very cool. Thoughts?
From the tests I've done, the SPX90 reverse gate sounds work best for me at 70% wet (50% means the effect volume is a bit too low against the dry volume). It's the interaction between the straight sound and the effected sound that gives it that rhythmic wash. The dry sound with all the distortion is going to obscure the strumming sounds just as going distorted into a normal reverb takes away the strumming sounds. So SPX90 is 70% wet for me and it's the same with the other Yamaha units with reverse, stuff like the SPX50D and FX500 (which is my current rack of choice). The MBV sound with the Midiverb is a bit different. The big reverbs really do work at 100% to get some sounds you'd recognise from Loveless. Tried a lot of units and nothing sounds quite like the Midiverb II.
So i just got the same EHX pedal and am pretty impressed. I've got a Boss ME-50 with a bunch of distortion presets as well as an Alesis Midiverb 4. A touch of reverse reverb from the Alesis and whacking the bottom and the tone up on the distortion (i'm using a crunch OD but this was the first I found that did the trick, there may be better) provides a lot of that 'atom bomb' rumble from the studio version. I can't take out the mid range on my current set up and I strongly suspect that would get it a little closer. I don't think it's ever totally replicable, but it's fun getting close.
Good job there dude. I was doing that sound in the 90s with an SGX3000 rackmount. Valve pre-amp, three-channel internal mixer. Similar to your sound there - multi-tap rvrs'd delay, fair amount of reverb +superdrive distortion but washed out by removing most of the original or main channel. You can hear that sound on "Mock - Skyryder". Still can't work out how to link it but it's now easy to find.
Without effects pedals you wouldnt have 90% of the great sounds in most great rock albums..... of any rock genre. No wah pedal, no Voodoo Child... would just sound like a guy mute picking for half the song.. No chorus pedal, distortion pedal, no smells like teen spirit., it would just sound like a spanish acoustic guitar jam.
@@atalantafugiens0426 it's actually distortion into the memory man. he says in the video the memory man is last in the chain before his pc recording rig
Nicely done sir. It is weird how simple it is to get the sound IF you have the right tools. Not complicated, but you have to have the right gear or it will never work
For a long time I presumed that sound was done by analogue synthesiser. Felt like one. Sounded like the closest thing to a Boards of Canada tune or perhaps Robert Fripp phase of Frippertronics.
Hey man, great job! How do you have your presets set up at 3.38 and 3.48? I just cant quite seem to get the same sound and its driving me crazy! Cheers and keep up the great work!
i see you used a pre-set on the memory man, which means the knobs on the pedal aren't necessarily where they were when you made the pre-set. what were they actually on to get that sound?
thanks man, this really made my day, I'd used the reversed delay/rev on the SMMH already but never combined like this with transparent OD and a whammy making the bends.... some open droning tuning helps a lot too... sorry but did you ever write which tuning you used for yourself this? Thanks again!
After watching this video and seeing your reverse reverb demo at 3:38 i decided I may want a pedal with a reverse reverb effect. Do you happen to know if the Electro Harmonix Cathedral pedal's reverse reverb setting could achieve the same sound you demonstrated here??
your video rules, don't listen to the haters, they're just jealous. I like how you kept it minimal, 2 guitars, and that's it. A nice change from all the shoegazer wannabe who need 10 pedals to get the same kind of sound :)
fun fact: this is the video Kerry McCoy used as a reference for Deafheaven's delayed guitar sound
where does he say that? That's awesome!

Standing ovation!!!TOTALLY NAILED IT!
I saw the Loveless tour twice & picked Mr Shield's brain about production.This gave me a flashback
Never enough reverb. I like your attitude.
every now and then i remember this video exists and come back to it - absolutely magnificent mate. hope you're doing well all these years later.
These settings worked for me on the Stereo Memory Man:
Blend: 3 o'clock
Decay: 12 o'clock
Filter: 12 o'clock

Also play around with the tone knob on your guitar as I found this affects the response of the delay quite a bit.
the use of pedals or effects in general to enhance your sound is a form of art itself, and it's very artistic actually.
Beats being the guy who paints Mona Lisa replicas

Stellar explanation, my good man.
You nailed it, definitely. Good job.
electro harmonix should have paid this guy
This is really good an helpful. The I wonder about is how you are strumming. Are you strumming and bending the "whammy bar" at the same time?
@sanchito1975
I use
Blend = 1.00 o'clock
Decay = 3.00
Filter = 12.00
Repeats = 11.00

on multi tap 1 sec
seems to do the job
You can use the Canyon Delay pedal from EHX for this as well!
