I used a super clean reverb from a Zoia pedal and the Microcosm without its internal reverb, and guess what, the sound was absolutely wonderful and clear, no more muddy confusing background in the more complex glitchy effects. In normal mode that nasty reverb makes more complex Microcosm modes incredibly muddy, am I the only one noticing this?

Each reverb on the Microcosm has an awful unnatural "ringing" decay, like a delay at high speed and full feedback, but just on the tail or just like when your DAW VST reverb maxes out the CPU and start to go nasty.and no, I checked with Hologram, my unit is not faulty, the reverb is supposed to sound like this!! I am shocked that other people and reviewers didn't spot this problem, it's super evident in Looper only Mode and incredibly annoying. With the Microcosm you always get a pretty weak volume and this ever present noise floor.Īnd last but not least, the REVERB, I heard some people love it, but in all honesty, even a cheap TC electronic Hall of Fame is waaaay better and clearer than the ones on the pedal, and again, this level on a £480 pedal is simply unacceptable. On top of the above, the pedal is quite noisy, not terrible or unusable, but frankly, unacceptable for a pedal of this price, try to use an Empress Zoia pedal or other Empress pedals an you'll notice the sound coming from nowhere, especially for delicate passages and subtle ambient music the noise floor is nothing, simply outstanding Empress. But they got me, the company has a no returns policy, which is obviously highly suspicious, and I shouldn't have fallen for it, in spite of the high vibe around this pedal. The thing is not to be used live, danger! And this for a £480 pedal is simply unacceptable! I read other people had the same problem. Then I played with the knobs a bit, I did the usual power cycle thing and now it's back again. I can see why people love it! But, but, although I didn't have your clicking troubles, so far, I found the unit buggy, all of a sudden it started not to work anymore, no effects whatsoever, no reverb, no glitchy thing, nothing, only the dry signal. Eventually I gave up and after trying the Beebo by Polyeffect which was a total disaster (it's gone back where it came from), I decided finally to buy the Microcosm.
