Half the reverb
Hi!
One day i knew i had to get a reverb pedal, but what do I buy with limited budget. I decided to look for few options and found shimverb and TC hall of fame mini. I decided to buy this pedal at the end due to it being 10 euros cheaper (what a bad decision i made). Seriously I could have easily spent 10 euros more and would have gotten such a better reverb pedal :(.
I mean this pedal is okay, but i do not like the shimmer because it is awful, basically, you can only properly use it either on one single chord until it rings or single note. If you play with faster changes etc, it will turn into one weird blur of sounds. Spring and Room reverbs sound ok to me. I am a more spring reverb guy. If you spend just like 2 min, you can find the right spot for the sound you want to have.
All in all for the price it's not the worst buy, but if I could go back in time, I would go for TC hall of fame mini.

It's a pretty okay pedal. The reverb is a little thin, the shimmer is a little one-sided. The other reverbs are dull sounding to me. The form factor and the build quality is great though, but I wouldn't by this pedal again. For the price there's nothing too much to ask for.

ShimVerb
Mooer ShimVerb is a very unique pedal. It is very small, but has many features.
So, i have this little thing in my board over a year, and some of things I have found out are:
+: It is very usable in many different pats. For instance, i like to use it to make my tone wider. I crank up decay to 3/4 and switch to shimmer, but I leave volume low, not to lose my guitar tone so much, and then it gives me the kind of background, like pianos and electro. It is very usable to get "space" kind of sounds. The reverb on this pedal is common, I use it rare, because shimmer mode for me is better in playing.
-: The most anyoing thing is the switch. When I play my guitar and tur it on, it is like the sound makes a click. There is a gap.
When volume is cranked up like 2/3 the sound of guitar fades and makes a feeling, that you have a very big signal loss in this pedal (shimmer)
And the shimmer adds only 5th position. This could be awesome and bad at the same time. I find it useful.

Really nice pedal
This pedal is continuously On in my pedal chain, for recording, rehearsing and playing live. I really like the spring reverb.
Pros:
-Easy to use, but really easy to use.
-Compact size so you can fit it anywhere in your pedalboard.
-The spring reverb is amazing! I just keep it on all the time since my amp is a modeling amp and I prefer the sound of pedals.
-Solid construction
Cons:
-I don't like the shimmer, sounds weird but again, can be me that I haven't still get the hang of it.
Overall:
Well, for sure I would be extremely sad/pissed off if someone would take it from me. It has become a part of my personal tone and it works great with other pedals. No noise or modifying when its off and the spring reverb is really nice. Would recommend it to a friend for sure.

Is this little thing worth the cost?
I bought this effect pedal just because i read in specs that it has 3 effects in 1. I guess it was 10 euros cheaper when i bought it (actually, now i would think twice before buying this). Of course price is affordable for what you get. What I really like it is small in size and very easy to use. With just 3 knobs you can get full variety of sound.
Unfortunately i am a little bit disappointed on shimmer efect. It sounds good but it will sound weird on some different chords or faster notes. I use both reverb effects ? room and spring reverb. I?m totally suprised in sound of spring reverb. It sounds great, clear and bright. Definately one of my favourite effects.
Overall ? Pedal is totally worth it?s price just because it is compact and it has spring reverb.

Okay reverb for the price.
The shimmer algorithm sounds decent. The room and spring algorithms not so much - most other reverb pedals do those sounds better.
The mini-knobs are annoying as always, especially since the control I really want to use most of the time isn't decay but level.
That said the build quality is okay. If you want a shimmer reverb on the cheap, you could do worse than this one. Good for the money. If you're getting this for the spring or room sounds you'll be disappointed.

Very good pedal with a lot of character
Very nice sound, unbeatable for the price. The spring and room sound exactly like you would want those classic sounds to work, and the shimmer is the fancy one to have fun with.
The footswitch also doesn't make a huge clank noise, which is very nice.
Only problem: Mooer pedals don't seem to automatically turn on: Wenn I plug in my power unit, all pedals are ready to go, except my two Mooers, where I need to unplug and replug the power cable.

Not convinced
The Shimmer is unusable.
The other 2 types didn’t convince either. Went for Mxr unit instead.

My new favorite
I use this pedal mostly for the Shimmer function which gives a sweet, glimmering, overtone kind of feel for sparkly tones. An excellent pedal if you're into shoegaze or dreampop. Just be careful with the Color-knob if you want a more subtle reverb kinda feel, as it can overpower your overall sound if excessively used. It's super small and takes up very little space on my pedalboard (which is appreciated).
