From another thread:

bManic wrote: Check this out, the new Sulaco algorithm. 3 Instances. 1st instance produces a subtle tiny ambience around the synth sound. 2nd instance is a "slap back" type thing, almost like a delay. This 2nd instance is then sent to the 3rd instance which creates the actual tail (after a 170ms delay to make it all seamless). I've EQd the 2nd and 3rd instance a bit (scooping out 300-500hz about -3dB) and I've narrowed the 3rd instances stereo field quite a bit to make the tail fade out to almost mono.

If you try to do this with inferior reverb algorithms that have any ringing in them, you'd end up with a complete mess but here it just works magically like nothing I've ever heard before!

Isn't it simply gorgeous!? Select your favourite synth lead, add some subtle chorusing, smoke a joint and immerse yourself in pure audio nirvana! I could play this thing all day!

Sounds like a plan! Hopefully my boss won't ask me to stay late tonight.

ValhallaRoom has been updated to version 1.0.9. The changes:

Pro Tools bug fixes:
- The plugin now shows up in the Reverb category, as opposed to Other.
- The short name displayed in the insert/send window is "VRoom" as opposed to "Valh."

Fixed bug with early modulation in Dark modes, where a "pinging" sound could be heard with certain settings.

Fixed bug related to interaction between short predelay settings and high Early Mod Depth settings.

The MIX control is now smoothed, for improved automation on sends.

New reverb mode: Sulaco
- Dark, somewhat sparser than other reverb modes, with lush modulation
- Wide range of control over Late Size, to dial in tight rooms, huge spaces, and all sorts of things in between
- Tighter stereo image than other VRoom modes, with Late Cross controlling the initial spread of energy between channels.

I've sent update links to my ValhallaRoom customer list. If you haven't received your updates, send me an email and I'll get things sorted out.

Wow, thanks, Sean!!! Just downloaded and getting ready to transfer it to the music computer. In the meantime I was listening to BManic's example and Bronto Scorpio's Zebra example on soundcloud. WOW!!!!

Valhalla is special. Not only is VR way too cheap, there are also too many free, major improvements coming!

Seriously, thank you very much indeed, Sean! You're #1.

Since i have VRoom i barely touch any other reverb anymore and the new Sulaco is just awesome. IMHO VRoom suits even better for dry string libraries like LASS than the built-in impulse responses.

@ Dennis: Very, very nice demo!

But don't forget ValhallaShimmer, it can give Zebra (and of course other synths) another dimesion, too.

Indeed! I love it on pads and simple sine wavey sounds

Here is a Sulaco test with some improvised Mallet Piano, automating some parameters like Decay, Depth and Late Mod Depth...
I like the new mode

4damind · Post by **4damind** » Sat Nov 12, 2011 12:28 pm

Yeah, can create also very good this Schiller typical big Nord Lead sounds with much reverb

Shimmer and a UAD Roland Space Echo to have a bit more tape-like modulation before the reverb.

While we are at it: Here is another Valhalla Example:
The dry Zebra sound:

And through Shimmer and VRoom with FreqEcho on a send:
http://www.bronto-scorpio-music.com/Mus ... ereWet.mp3

I automate the send level, the FreqEcho shift and the Shimmer size

Cheers

New mode is great. Amazing what V-Room has become since I bought it!

naturestoned · Post by **naturestoned** » Sat Nov 12, 2011 2:23 pm

...ok, downloaded, tested, and you convinced me. That new sulaco mode sounds great. I really enjoy playing guitar through the SulacoWoodRoom Preset. And it has half the CPU Load than my previous favourite for a similar type of sound. Also I like the very clear interface.
