What is it clearly ?
I know that need 2 stereo file in the convultion world but how you made it wt Pristine Space ?
Is it usefull considering the pan routing trough the auxiliary in cubase ?

1- There are two "true stereo reverb" presets available, one for send and other for insert reverb. Choose the one you want.
2- Load the same stereo impulse response file on slots 1 and 2.
3- That's it.

so the left channel is stereo and the right channel are stereo to ? is that simple !
Do i need "thru stereo" if i symply set the aux send in the center (you can do that in cubase same if you pan the source hard left or right)

The whole idea of a stereo reverb is to reproduce more accurately the reverb effect of an acoustic ambient. For a signal hard-panned (left or right), the reverb signal will be higher on the corresponding channel but there will be also some reverb signal on the other channel - very much the same response as a real room with two microphones would provide.fred2112 wrote:Do i need "thru stereo" if i symply set the aux send in the center (you can do that in cubase same if you pan the source hard left or right)
If you always send your signals center panned there would be no need for a true stereo reverb. But why should you do so? I understand that reverbs for single instruments sometimes benefit from being mono thus not taking much space in the mix. But for a "final glue" reverb I always use a touch of Pristine Space with a true stereo preset. Works great for me.

As I understand it, true-stereo allows you to use different impulses for left and right channels, so that the tail is centre-panned but the early reflections depend on the pan position of the input. You can use SIR to do this, but you need two instances of it.
You also need to be careful in generating the true-stereo impulse responses - I think they either need to be identical except for gain or completely uncorrelated, or you can get phasing artifacts and cancellation on centre-panned material. (Anyone know more about this?)
If it were no more than removing the influence of input pan on the reverb, SIR can do that too - not only yes/no, but anywhere between 0-100%.
