Small Plate Reverb

The EMT 140 (Small) is a plate reverb unit produced by EMT, renowned for its rich, natural-sounding reverb. Utilizing a suspended metal plate to create reverberation, the 140 delivers smooth, lush decay and a distinctive warmth prized in both studio and live settings. Its compact "Small" version offers the classic EMT plate sound in a reduced footprint, making it suitable for studios with limited space while maintaining the sonic quality that made the EMT 140 a staple in professional audio production.
