Awesome
I hate that I had to give up my Holy Grail + but I need more options in a small box! My bassist had one that I borrowed, then immediately bought my own.

The Last Reverb Pedal You’ll Ever Need
I’m not gonna waste everyone’s time with a lengthy description. Just do yourself a favor and add this to your pedalboard. It covers every type of reverb you could possibly want, and does them all WELL. The long/short toggle switch gives you even more flexibility. Get the HOF. It’s all you need. It’s awesome, and it has permanently replaced my MXR M300!

Versatile "standard" reverb
This pedal provides a great selection of reverb types and generally sounds pretty great. It does induce a tiny bit of extra noise in the system if your pedal power is non isolated, and plugging in the USB while it's running will also bump up the noise significantly in a non-isolated power system (probably due to power draw?).
That aside the preset reverbs all sound great and even without Tone Prints on board these would cover 99% of most peoples needs. The Tone Print side of things adds another element as you get the ability to load artist presets and also design your own reverbs in the Tone Print software.
Solid reverb that gets cool sounding, but maybe doesn't quite have the ability to get quite as atmospheric as some of the more expensive reverbs out there.

Good, but not great
I had this for a couple of years. It certainly can hold its own with other similar reverbs, like the MXR M300, the Digitech Polara, and the EHX Ocean's 11. The toneprint feature is nice, you can hook the pedal up to your phone or your computer and create a toneprint from a template provided by TC Electronic. I felt like the more traditional reverbs, like spring and plate, were just ok, but the modulated reverbs were a little better. Also, the Hall of Fame 1 does not have Shimmer - but the Hall of Fame 2 does. Overall, I felt like all of the reverb modes were good, but none of them were great. It's a nice pedal to have for variety, but if you want a specific reverb that sounds great, you might be better off looking elsewhere.

My Reverb.
Since I am the only guitar in the band, and Brigand sound needs to be heavy and rich to make sense, my reverb pedal is almost always turned on. It`s not the best verb on the field, but is far for worst. I regularly use church mod, which gives me that "doomy" sound. Also, I uploaded Jonsi from Sigur Ros mode with Toneprint app, and I use that mode when I need some serious feedback sound.

Just Amazing
Don't think twice... you can dial in the different categories of reverb right from the pedal and they sound really very good. If not, you didn't take enough time to set the dials right for you. Still not happy? Go tweaking in the Toneprint editor and you must be looking for a very strange and specific sound if you can't dial it in there. Then, try some of the artists toneprints, man it's just INCREDIBLY versatile AND good sounding. Remember when 35mm film was still 'better' than digital. Well, we got over the romantic stuff and it just works better now, same here with TC.

You can also have "free" modulation tones if you select the "MOD" mode, Decay = 0% and FX level at your taste. My favorites modes are Church and Mod.
(H)all in one
Tc Electronics is becoming every year a more valid pedal company and this is the result. The HoF is a very good sounding pedal considering the low price! In the package you get 10 different type of reverb, the controls (decay,tone,fxlevel,pre dealy) are very effective and easy to use. The build quality is good as expected with true bypass and the possibility to run in in stereo. This may sounds as a common thing in reverb pedal but i challenge you to find all these features and quality in this price range. And then there is the "toneprint" in wich you can store your own preset created on the app provided by Tc Electronics website.

One of the Best Reverb out there and for the money the Best!
At face value the HOF is a good pedal especially when you compare it to say the Strymon pedals. However you would be wrong to think that to get the sound of more expensive reverbs you have to buy more expensive pedals. The HOF has many types of reverb to choose from and with your Android or iOS phone can beam Artist created reverbs to the pedal if you choose to. Where the HOF really shines is that you can connect to a computer with tone print and edit the type of reverb and how you want it to sound and the program the parameters you want the sound to work in via computer. Like all TC Electronic Toneprint capable pedals, toneprint gives you that ability to create your own sound like Blackstar ID amps do. Meaning the HOF at face value gives you a lot of options to sculpt your sound but with the computer you can go deeper in tweeking that sound. Something I am not going to get with more expensive pedals.

You get a lot in this little box.
Big selection of sounds, which I don't particularly like using. I tend to just sit on the Spring Reverb as I would imagine most guitarists would do. A lot of the other settings just seem a little operatic to me. But the control you have over this pedal is awesome. Also it doesn't seem to take anything away from my signal. The pedal suits simple effects users (like me) and sonic wizards a like. The Toneprint is also heaps of fun, especially when it adds a new dimension to the sound like Troy Van Leeuwen's tremolo reverb.

who says that most guitarists use spring? such a boring reverb type,damn,boring reverb type for boring and uninspiring blues licks over and over again,get a brain

The only reverb pedal you really need.
This thing is meant to be an investment unless you're disrespectful of your pedals. Very nice controls featuring: FX level, Tone, Decay and types of modulation. It comes with 10 preset reverb signature sounds, and features a Toneprint technology setting which allows you to download your own reverb files for maximum personal reverb satisfaction. Definitely one of TC Electronic's finest! Get it!
822
Indeed it can be used as a modulation pedal when the FX Level is totally dry. With the TonePrint software other FXs can be done.
822
Correction: Can be used as a modulation pedal when the Decay level is zero. The FX Level is set as you like to blend with the signal path. By the way, the TC Hall of Fame changes drastically when is plugged into two amps in a stereo setup.
251
Thanks for the modulation info update. Lol I've never messed with the stereo feature since I haven't plugged into two amps before. Maybe one day!

In total love
The versatility of TC's pedals sucks me in yet again. So many different reverb types, so many controls and parameters, and tone-print returns just in case there aren't already enough options. Love this little beauty, it lives on my board permanently.

"The funny thing is that the delay and reverb pedals are the only delay and reverb that have not had to change in two years. Like in 2010, we changed reverbs and delays every week. We then put those in and we never change them," says Joe Perry's guitar tech.
