<p><a href="https://www.preservationsound.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Orban111bReverb.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-2084" title="Orban111bReverb" src="https://www.preservationsound.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Orban111bReverb-1024x465.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="290" srcset="https://www.preservationsound.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Orban111bReverb-1024x465.jpg 1024w, https://www.preservationsound.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Orban111bReverb-300x136.jpg 300w, https://www.preservationsound.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Orban111bReverb.jpg 1341w" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px" /></a>I have been using a 111B reverb for many years in the studio to augment the usual reverb plug-ins.  It is the best spring reverb unit I have come across.  I have found that it absolutely needs a little pre-delay applied, or else weird phase cancellation occurs when I sum the reverb output back into the board along with the direct signal.  There are may easy ways to do this, but it is worth noting.</p>
<p>Orban was founded three decades ago by Bob Orban.  They have always made audio equipment aimed at the radio broadcast market.  Prices for their classic 80&#8217;s gear were reasonable until recently.  Plenty of these out there, tho, so if yr patient and you will get a deal.</p>
<p>Since Orban is in the business of supplying broadcasters, their website have excellent technical support.  You can download the original manuals for all their products at <a href="ftp://ftp.orban.com/" target="_blank">this link on their site</a>.</p>
