Hi All,
I just bought and installed Valhalla Room.
I'm going to make use of your presets and have a good listen to then
If i make any decent presets myself, i'll be sure to post them, hope i can give something back.
Cheers.

Thanks for sharing all these presets.
Much appreciated

80's gated drums...this is my valhalla room ams rmx-16 non-lin 2 patch emulation recreated as close as possible to the original. try to use it (as a send,mix to taste) on linn drum samples ,pure 80's nostalgia.don't forget to use TB reelbus or other tape emulation,also "eq into tape" as done in the 80's for a more vintage sound.

Patch:

From a technical perspective, the nonlin reverbs in ÜberMod get much closer to the RMX16 Nonlin2 architecture. The ValhallaRoom stuff can get much denser and smoother than the RMX (I'm not going to say *better* as those raggedy RMX reverbs sound great in a mix).

Thanks for posting the preset!

Really like this one I designed. I use it for a short yet present, bright ambience. Nice for thickening up vocals or placing a bit of roomy-ness throughout a mix without muddying the waters too much. I've used it as an insert or as my short bus reverb.

<ValhallaRoom pluginVersion="1.1.0" presetName="Tight Ambiance" mix="0.143000007" predelay="0" decay="0.00570570584" HighCut="0.79261744" earlyLateMix="0.207000002" lateSize="0.810000002" lateCross="1" lateModRate="0.806060612" lateModDepth="0.670000017" RTBassMultiply="0" RTXover="0.0979797989" RTHighMultiply="0.577777803" RTHighXover="0.534228206" earlySize="0.0303303301" earlyCross="0.469999999" earlyModRate="0.111111112" earlyModDepth="0.349999994" earlySend="1" diffusion="1" type="0.166666672"/>

Here is a Basic Stereo Reverb
Works nice on Acoustic Instruments. Used this one on a classical harp production.
(also nice with Dark Space algorithm).

<ValhallaRoom pluginVersion="1.1.0" presetName="Basic Stereo Reverb_01" mix="1" predelay="0.053199999" decay="0.0171171166" HighCut="0.405369133" earlyLateMix="0.529999971" lateSize="0.600000024" lateCross="0.400000006" lateModRate="0.103030302" lateModDepth="0.519999981" RTBassMultiply="0.413333327" RTXover="0.0272727273" RTHighMultiply="0.444444448" RTHighXover="0.2966443" earlySize="0.0605605617" earlyCross="0.150000006" earlyModRate="0.0909090936" earlyModDepth="0" earlySend="0.699999988" diffusion="0.850000024" type="0.0833333358"/>

While all the people pay the tribute to the VVV (for its lush and wide sound) I very often find VR actually lushier and wider and warmer in the cases when reverb tail is long enough. For example, this preset:

<ValhallaRoom pluginVersion="1.1.0" presetName="Lush space" mix="1" predelay="0" decay="0.0989990011" HighCut="0.765100658" earlyLateMix="0.921999991" lateSize="0.430000007" lateCross="0.790000021" lateModRate="0.177777782" lateModDepth="0.379999995" RTBassMultiply="0.333333343" RTXover="0.0707070678" RTHighMultiply="0.822222233" RTHighXover="0.409395963" earlySize="0.211711705" earlyCross="0" earlyModRate="0.181818187" earlyModDepth="0.200000003" earlySend="1" diffusion="1" type="0.0833333358"/>

Sorry for the crude play: I really can't play accurate enough the music that emotionally great for me forcing me to live every note (praise to Brad Fiedel).

P. S. Try to switch algorithm to LV264, that a spacious explosion! Might need to tame Late Mod Depth a bit though.

P. P. S. But I found that VVV's sound has more definition, resolution in highs (despite of ancient algos) in bright setups.

Can we post our Vee3 presets here as well? I made some (30 and something) PCM and 480-ish presets in case anyone is interested..

I tried to match preset parameters from 480 and PCM and also did additional tuning by ear. However, I'm no reverb expert by any means and I'm pretty sure that attack values are wrong (couldn't find them in Lex reverbs). Maybe Sean (or somebody else) can fine-tune them to be even more similar to originals..

I started a new thread for Vee3 presets.

As far as matching Attack to the Lexicon Shape/Spread, it might be difficult to get an exact match. I would try multiplying the Lexicon Spread value by 0.39, and using this as the Attack percentage. Use Random Space for Random Hall presets, and the Chamber algorithm for the other 480L presets. If you have a 480L handy, you should match the decay times by ear, as the older Lexicon stuff had a very loose relationship between the displayed and actual decay times.

A preset i've made by, as the name suggests,
playing a virtual electric piano.

Mix knob is by default at 11.4%

Hope you find it useful
