Old Blood Noise Endeavors · pedal
The Old Blood Noise Endeavors Minim is a reverse reverb and delay pedal from OBNE (Oklahoma City, Oklahoma), a US boutique manufacturer known for inventive, experimental effects with lo-fi-influenced aesthetics. It processes the signal in reverse through its reverb and delay circuits, so notes swell in backwards rather than decaying forward, producing a hauntingly reversed, swelling ambience rather than a conventional reverb tail. It suits shoegaze, post-rock, and experimental guitar players wanting genuinely reversed, atmospheric textures rather than a standard forward-decaying reverb or delay.
