I just bought wizooverb. I have and use SIR, wavearts masterverb, UAD-1 plate, and AA. I also have, but don't use, the other reverbs on the UAD-1 and reverbs on the poco, plus the reverb in reaktor (which I love but forget I have), and a bunch of semi-verbs like wavearts pan & stereo wideners.

I don't know what the right number is, but I think I have too many reverbs.

If you're asking yourself this, then it's high time to focus on Music, man :D

When do you have too many of any one kind of effect? For some, anything more than one is too many, for others there can never be enough. I suppose the answer falls somewhere around "Do you know how to make use of what you have already and do you actually use them?"

Some folk have a lot of stuff just because they have the means to acquire lots of stuff. In that case, they probably have too many, but certainly wouldn't feel that way.

Funny, I actually don't have many reverbs installed, and while I have a few commercial reverbs, I tend to reach for Aciddose's freeware xhipreverb first almost every time these days.

I find contemplating questions like this is a lot nicer than contemplating the deadlines for delivery I have over the next 3 months or so . . . and actually working on meeting those deadlines? :cry:

I think the limit is there, when you can't decide anymore, which one to use :hihi: and need to ask some :help: on it. You fairly mentioned the AA, but is there ARA (Anonymous Reverb Addicts) you can turn to (maybe it suits better)? :hihi:

I have fruity reverb. I usually forget it exists. Delay is sexier.

You're not actually asking a question -- just bragging, yes? :D
