The M-VAVE Mini Universe is a compact, budget-friendly digital reverb pedal. according to RockBoard's PedalPedia's product information, it "offers a wide range of ambient and spatial tone-shaping capabilities", placing it among the ambient-leaning end of Reverb Pedals rather than the simple room-and-plate territory of a basic spring unit1.

What it does

The Mini Universe covers reverb in the usual sense and beyond it. Its nine modes are Room, Hall, Plate, Spring, Shimmer, Cloud, Bloom, Swell, and Lofi1. The first four are conventional reverberation types players will know from most reverb pedals, while Shimmer, Cloud, Bloom, Swell, and Lofi push toward the ambient and textural side of the effect, which is where the maker positions the pedal1.

Power and practical notes

The pedal runs on 9V DC, center negative, and draws 100mA1. That current draw is worth noting on a pedalboard: it is above what many small power supplies allocate per output, so it is worth checking what your supply offers before daisy-chaining it alongside other pedals.

The Mini Universe draws 100mA at 9V DC, center negative1. A supply output rated below that may not run the pedal reliably.
