thanks for the freebie(u should mention in the subject)

If your plugin is a Synth-edit/synth-maker creation, Say So.
If not Make a Mac version of your Plugins Please.

Done. Also posted a brief tutorial/youtube video on the controls on the blog in the signature.

By requests, updated to v.1.2.4b with some presets (26, half typical cases, half ambients). Think this is done for now ;)

Regarding your original question... Yes! Free and pro versions of the same plugin are a great idea I think.. see: Tokyo Dawn GE plugins. I think there'll always be strong community interest in good reverbs - algorithmic/convolution hybrids are also quite interesting.

What exclusive features would you add to the Pro version?

Ah. Tokyo Dawn has a good model going. Here's a short-list of ideas compiled thus far:

-Multi-band freq. decay: Allows fine-grain controls over how impulse response dampens over time.
-Resample IR: Different from stretch feature as this option will cause frequency shift and truncation
-Export IR button: Work-flow shortcut in case someone wants to use the impulse response outside the plugin or has access to a faster convolver.
-Projective geometry viewer: A visualizer for projecting the listener and high-dimensional geometry onto the screen.

cool plugin

what i would like in a Pro version would be two reverbs going into one another
Like a convolution going into an algorhythm and or vice-versa

and u could chose if u wanted a convolution in one and an algo in the other or 2 of the same kind

It's possible. A two-in-one would also justify including some other features such as pitch-shift based time-stretching, extending the EQ, and envelope editing. Looks like the list is getting beefier ;)

Of course this is a matter of personal taste, but I'd strongly advise you to change the GUI to a professional design. For example:

The current GUI isn't very pleasing to the eye, to put it mildly.

Sorry, but the GUI makes me dizzy

Yea. I've gotten quite a bit of flack for the GUI already (the earlier versions were even worse). A redesign would be in order now that I got more experience with photoshop.

Riviera has been updated with a better GUI and other added features:

All the reverbs are great (bought the two 'pro' ones too) but yeah the GUIs are pretty nasty ... less is more - lose the textured backgrounds, reduce the colour palette, reduce the clutter. Perfick :)

Minimalist aesthetics do have a certain appeal but I never could pull it off. Must be my allergies towards negative space :hihi:

I love this plugin, and it is the only reason why I haven't invested more in paid reverbs. It sounds great. My only gripe is the reverb and ER drop-down menus. I wish they were more descriptive other than "variation 1-12" and "reverb 1-5". It would also be nice to get arrows or buttons to be able to scroll quickly through the options. That said, I would definitely be interested in a pro version in the future.

That may be another reverb (Oril's River I think by Dennis) which coincidentally I'm also a fan of when I started out. Riviera came out a couple months later as an experiment to test out a new reverb design / interesting maths that I developed.
