Reverb VST's

[mistayif]

i just use the reverb that comes with ableton, does the job and uses next to nothing cpu wise. actually coming to think about it, i don't actually have any external vst effects, only use the ones in ableton

i've bought EaReckon's EaReverb at 59 Euros. The demo sounded good, i needed a go-to that wasn't Waves. Its not an IR reverb, its 100% algorithms and it has a different sound but it really sounds lovely. I'm glad i got it cuz i needed something different to reach for. as far as i can tell its not too hard on CPU.

the lexicon native bundle sounds fantastic

Have spent the last few days messing around with the TAL Reverb, more than happy with the results.

Also, the GUI is very pleasing

which one, they've got 3?

The one with the pleasing GUI

This one is amazing (and free) one of the best convo reverbs I have ever used:

Really easy to use as well. The GUI looks a bit 1980's but when you get passed that it really is a powerful piece of kit.

UAD plate 140 and Sony Oxford Reverb, you'll notice the difference.

I think its important to use different types of reverb. When I got the UAD Plate 140 thats nearly all I was using, but you need a variety of types of reverb to create a more interesting sense of space, thats why I got the Sony Oxford Reverb.

I've never been a big convolution fan. I don't know why. What makes one convolution reverb sound different than another, aren't they just processing audio through an impulse response?

i dunno but altiverb is fucking heavy duty convo. Sounds way better than anything else i've ever heard, but regarding your question, i have no idea besides the price tag and the CPU load, which def. have something to do with how much better it sounds.

UAD's 140 is great but not at all suitable for creating spaces/depth.. It really only serves as a plate. It's a great emulation of hardware plate verb, but doesn't have the potential to sound large imo. Sounds great when fairly dry and short, to give snares and percussion a realness to it. Gotta have something different for the big chambers, halls, etc.

Ad to this day, convolution or algorithmic, i haven't heard a software verb that sounds better than Reason's RV7000 (besides altiverb).

I agree...I really miss that thing

+1

Think redline reverb sounded equally as good. Different, different strengths, but equally as good. To bad homie had to die.

[cloak and dagger]

redline reverb is actually probably the one I use the most now that I use a VST-based host (the TAL ones are really good too...I just used Reverb 3 for the first time and really liked the sound I got from it)

nice one, you should also include AU's in the title or at least list which of those plugins are in AU format as well so my lazy ass doesn't have to go through every single link
