Origin Effects RevivalTrem Bias Tremolo

This looks as remarkable as the rest of their pedals. Can it challenge my longest serving pedal, the Kingsley Bard?

I wonder how it pairs with the RevivalDrive?

I've never been drawn to their drive pedals before. They just don't appeal.

But I'd buy this in a heartbeat:

Assuming it sounds good, that is. The features are near perfect.

Well I've had a good few trem pedals including a Bard and I haven't heard one as nice/authentic/amplike as that Revival, I must say. 

The price (£360) is eye-watering. But if you think of it as the best Brownface Deluxe in a box you'll ever hear it's a little more justifiable I suppose.

The one vid that's up, I'm not especially enamoured of the drive sound. But I think that's as much the playing as anything else.

I'll probably end up buying one. No doubt I'll probably end up buying one but used at that price I love their Revival Drive Compact

Video demo from Peach too:-

Superb.

I re-purchased a RDC, and it is truly superb.

Welcome back.

I still need to get my hands on an RDC and Cali76. This looks fab too.

Looks great, sounds brilliant but have I understood correctly that you can’t use the trem circuit individually of the overdrive circuit? 

I understand what they’re getting at that apparently the drive was an integral part of those old trem circuits, and I think the drive sounds are brilliant btw, but I think it’s a mistake to not be able to use the trem on its own. Especially, when they’ve already added functionality that isn’t in those old circuits with the shape and speed switches.

Mine are perfect together. Love my RDC

Sounds mega... mind you, Jack could make a drawer full of cuterlry sound good...

I will be trying one of these.

If you don’t have the odd 350 quid spare, do NOT watch this video:

It perfectly explains why this pedal is incredible. Great playing. And I really thought I could save some money this year.

Yeah, I watched that yesterday. Sounds brilliant

Great demo!

Does sound so good. I want one but not liking that price tag  

Id quite like to know how it would stack up with the RDC. As another solo boost etc. I believe all those drive sounds would be achievable with a RDC too though

At first i though 'thank god it's not a univibe' as i love the trem in my amp and the revival drive and cali76 are next on my 'to buy' list.

Then i watched the demos. Woops! Need this too. Lol

I imagine a standalone trem-only unit will come out in the compact format at some point?

I’ve thought the same thing However I still think the Strymon Flint will take some beating. Awesome pedal that one
