Reverberate - Convolution reverb with modulation for Mac and PC (AU, AAX, VST)

[soniclegacy]

Wow! I have to say the frequent development attention this plug-in receives has pretty much been a deciding factor as I determine which convolution reverb to get. It's nice to know one's investment will be well taken care of

And the chainer is a nice addition!

Recently discovered Reverberate and this plug-in is simply amazing. Couldn't be happier. Also downloaded the additional plugins from http://www.rhythminmind.net/presetblog (Signaltonoise.com). WOW---I'm set. Highly recommended.

Here is the link for the reverb impulse sets developed by Signal-to-Noise.
Outstanding work. Check the out (using Reverberate)

Anyone wants to explain how chaining IRs can be beneficial?

I think you can also use it to chain a space IR after a cabinet IR (in the same instance)... and with the insane Recabinet (www.recabi.net) deal going on now, it pretty much makes it a no brainer.

What is the copy protection on this? I am about ready to buy but I don't want another C-R plugin. Is it a keyfile?

It's a simple license file based approach valid on Mac and PC alike

Thanks Matt, I picked it up earlier today :_) Looking forward to the true stereo presets. Whats up with the serial convolution?

Thanks for the sale The serial convolution mode is so that IR1 can be fed into IR2. If you're not finding it's doing anything, make sure you have IRs loaded in both IR1 and IR2, and that they're both turned on.

Thanks matt!!! that was quick!! I read about it somewhere and knew it was available in reverberate. Sounds interesting

Matt, i feel there's really a need for multiple positions impulse. Meaning IS from all positions on a stage like far left, left, left of center, center, right etc.. back far left, back left etc.. So you could do that maybe?

Are you talking about a product like Vienna MIR http://vsl.co.at/en/65/71/393/1165.vsl or Tascam GigaPulse http://www.tascam.com/products/gigapulse.html perhaps? Technically it's achievable, but in order to make anything good out of it you need a top class IR library, which I don't have the resources to capture (many good mics, access to decent halls, months of travelling the world (well that bit sounds nice he he) etc etc). Unless you know of a IR libraries that actually have these kinds of IRs in them, labelled up as such, I don't think I can really tackle it properly. Thanks for the input though.

Stage positioning or something similar would be really a killer feature.
I think, a top class IR library isn't really necessary. But, IR's from different positions of the same hall.
Maybe take a look to Voxengos Impulse Modeler. It's really amazing and the IR's produced by this modeler sounds really good. I know some people using this program and they create IR's that sounds as good like real rooms. With this IR modeler tool you can provide IR's with different location and different directions in the same room.
Perhaps, such a tool could help to provide IR's for Reverberate and extend the features.

Stage positioning would be totally a killer feature, I'm looking for a Reverb that does that. But I think the way it's done in e.g. Altiverb and Origami is just by doing some calculations(panning, mix) on a stereo IR, so no different IR's for different positions are needed. If you want to have a look at this you can send an email to audioease.com to ask for a demo, or download the Halls of Fame - Origami Demo from

I considered Origami, but the CPU usage is ridiculous. And Reverberate is way nicer to look at.

(1other thing Origami does is surround reverb, but that;s another wish)

I can sure see the attraction of proper surround, but this is a way off v2 style update as the whole modulation scheme would need a rewrite as well as the GUI to really exploit the potential of this, plus I would need to do some work on a decent IR library which would take plenty of time as there are nowhere near as many sources of surround IRs as stereo, or sources suitable for positioning in this way. Interesting ideas, maybe for the future.

Hi Matt, I'm afraid there's a misunderstanding: Positioning IS NOT surround. Positioning is merely a GUI for mixing (in stereo) of dry/wet & early reflections. There's a "soundstage", say the stage, if you place the source (input) near the audience you hear more dry/less wet, if you place it on the far left, you get more left signal, mostly wet, etc..
I think it would perfectly fit into the current Reverberate, maybe v2, (perfect for me that is .
And no need for extra IR's, because this can be done with normal stereo or true-stereo IR's.

Thanks

Hi Marc

OK so surround could be involved, doesn't have to be. So maybe the stage position is a good way to automate existing parameters to mimic position, prime candidates being pre-delay/gain/pan/filtering.

Hi Matt, check this for positioning:

It's, imho, the best, easiest and most fun way of finding the perfect reverb setting, not only for orchestral setups.

[liquidsonics]

I may look into the positioning in future though feel I probably need to get into sampling real spaces to do it properly.

On another topic, do we have any VST-RTAS wrapper users out there willing to try the plug-in for me as I have recently improved compatibility a great deal so am trying to find out if there are any more issues with it before I support it officially in the wrapper. One step towards properly going for RTAS support.
