It's fun to try various processing efx. My reverb is a very modest
Alesis QuadraVerb, which has some nice sounds, but is a little noisy on
some of them. I can get away with it in live performance mixes, but
would not be clean enough for serious studio usage. I had fun one time
playing my old Fender Rhodes through our guitar player's Marshall amp.
Even the tame Rhodes piano sounded just like E. VanHalen when played
through a Marshall. Wierd.
