Thanks Joachim.
The review at www.buenasideas.de (a good review website btw) is very encouraging.
Would your email box accept a 10Mb attachment ?
Otherwise, I can eventually just send you the setup file for your system (less than 4 Mb).
Please email me at pfozz[ AT ]eareckon[ DOT ]com if you want to get it via email.
Kind regards,
Philippe

It's really a very natural sounding reverb (never heard of it before). It sounds great on my acoustic guitar where I always prefered convo over algo before.
When I first saw the screenshot I thought that it's just another difficult-to-setup thing, but it's surprisingly quite easy.
I'm currently a little bit out of cash to take the intro offer, but this state is not endless
What I don't like so much is the C/R copy protection on any software (makes me a bit nervous since the KjaerhusAudio story).

Hi Peter,
Many thanks for sharing your opinion!
I'm glad you like EAReverb.
I understand your point about copy protection (I'm also a user).
I would sincerely prefer to not include such things in my products. Unfortunately, it is by experience still necessary.
It may change in the future. I hope so...
Thanks again,
Philippe

I'm pretty impressed by Eareverb so far. My go-to is usually VirSyn's REFLECT (a hybrid convolution/algorithmic reverb), since I mostly deal with acoustic recordings or with VI:s that are supposed to sound like they're in a physical room - I don't use verb much as an effect as such.
I was surprised and pleased by the natural, 'physical location' sound of Eareverb. As someone pointed out, it sounds more like a convolution verb than an algorithmic one. Especially the small spaces, with just the early reflections or a small amount of reverb tail, were really ear openers - even synthy sounds got a physically localised presence that's most appealing to my ears.
And I have only opened and gazed in amazement at the 'hidden' workspace controls which allow you to make detailed tweaks to the six first early reflections. Something for the golden-eared fiddler to play with ad infinitum…
Finally, the manual is clear and nicely written (always a promising sign that a dev has made the effort to design a good handbook) and Philippe was even kind enough to email me the demo, since I currently can't log on to the website from China.
I will definitely vote with my VISA card for Eareverb once I get out of censored internet space.

Thanks for the pointer. Yes, I discovered that early on. But the site still can't be reached from China. For whatever reason…standalone wrote:Just a note for those that are unable to reach the site. The link in the first post is wrong ( a " too much), try this one:

I'm a bit surprised that Eareverb hasn't caused more of a stir so far. Perhaps the 'verb market is somehow saturated at the moment?
As I noted above, I bought Eareverb as soon as I got out of the Chinese internet blockage and I'm happy that I did.
The only piece of criticism so far would be the, IMO, unncessarily convoluted C/R procedure. I'm not a newbie when it comes to authorising, but I found the maze-like procedure on the website, where you have to jump between pages to finally get the auth code, a bit frustrating. Surely, it can be much more streamlined.
Anyway, I'm happy with Eareverb and look forward to using it as one of my go-to:s, in addition to REFLECT, ArsAcoustic Reverb and the DP7 built-in convolution reverb.

Thanks again, Joachim.
It would probably help to have a real marketing department at eaReckon
In the meanwhile, it's already great to have such a positive and spontaneous feedback.
EAReverb should get some exposure in magazines soon. I just hope your favorite reviewers will like it
Otherwise, even if you should not have to care about it in the future, I will check what can be changed to lighten up the authorization process.
BTW, Peter, I didn't know about this story, but since I can generate codes manually, such a problem should not happen here.
Everything is even planned in the case eaReckon's activities have to be stopped... but such a sad thing is currently not expected at all!
Kind regards,
Philippe

Tried the demo tonight and immediately made the purchase.
2 things that should be improved:
a) takes too much cpu power (much more than my other reverbs and perfect space i.e.)
b) creating an account - i dislike that you send out username and password in the same email and without any encryption. not so safe nowadays.
Other than that I am happy

PS: Have only tried the demo yet, maybe that is an older version and more cpu hungry..
