Best "Native" Spring reverb plugin or emulation?

[TDVV]

Hey there's a lot of companies kind of doing the same thing here and it's kinda getting weird.
What's the best sounding -or warmest yet realistic- sounding Spring Reverb in native plugin form?

it's hard to choose nowadays and average ppl don't the time to test out each & every one

[The Noodlist]

Dunno, best is subjective and I'm a novice anyway.
But, there is a sale of 20 FX plug-ins that includes a spring reverb and some other stuff for free, might be worth a demo.

I have tons of spring reverb plugins. I also have a couple hardware units. I love spring reverb and have been using them since the 70s. Here's my top 3 list:

Aegean Spirit is one of the most realistic nicest sounding. https://aegeanmusic.com/spirit-reverb
u-he Twangstrom https://u-he.com/products/twangstrom/
Overloud SpringAge https://www.overloud.com/products/springage

AudioThing Springs is promising but I have yet to pick it up.

The most realistic spring reverb software is, IMHO, Acustica Nebua 4 with Cupwise's spring programs.

Eventide now has one too

I love twangstrom.
I like Aegean Spirit, but didn't convince me enough to buy it - still preferred my tank in my amp. pretty good tho

My two go-to's right now are Twangstrom and Audio Thing Springs.

i appreciate u guys reaching out here, guys

alls mostly subjective, but specifically w/ plugins (especially analog modeling), warmth & realism in character/air should be prioritized?
it does all depends on whatever u do. i just like making weird noises lol.

I was wishing there'd be an equivalent to some "Unfiltered Audio" type plugin that did some crazy spin on Spring type tones.

I think that describes AudioThing Springs, from my trying the demo out. There is a lot under the hood there to really go crazy with the essence of of the spring sound.

<...> realism <...> crazy spin <...>.

It's either one or the other.

For realism and 'soundgoodized' spring (aka real spring without the warts and the bad breath) - go to u-he.

I use PSP Springbox. It's excellent and sounds fantastic. Satisfies my springing needs.
I'm sure the U-HE and Audiothing ones are top shelf because they make total quality plugins.

Not much to add here; except that you might already have some 'spring - emulation' hidden in an Amp - Simulation (which could be decent) or even an Delay, like the Audiothing Outer Space has a Spring Algo, too!

Thanks guys! The AudioThing Springs seems the most openended tonalwise.
Twangstorm, seems best for automation patches,
particularly.

it all depends on whats being done w/ the input as part of the workflow than the plugins themselves.
i didnt like the eventide spring tonally at all, for some reason, even with proper gainstaging.

But yeah, AudioThing wins for me here, at least hah.

Thanks again

So I was not the only one who was disappointed with the Eventide. I am waiting on a sale on the Audiothing.

I was initially disappointed with Eventide Spring however I took a second look and realized the value is in the multi-parameter morphing and automation. The general sound of it is medicore however with the multi-parameter morphing it makes it very unique and useful so bought it.
