Arturia has a new one out, which emulates a few models. There is a sale currently on too, 50% off I think. Worthwhile at least checking out.

I think that Spirit Reverb, Audio Thing's Springs and PSP's Springbox are great sounding vst plugins which I use for spring reverbs.
However, I hold a soft spot for the long-in-the-tooth but effective Spring Type 4 by GSI Software (but I believe that it is still 32 bit?).
Also, for any Nebula owners, VNXT and Cupwise do some awesome sounding spring reverbs

It look like TimeVerb-X is it's successor, even though it still seems to be on sale.dark water wrote: Wed Apr 29, 2020 4:29 pm I think that Spirit Reverb, Audio Thing's Springs and PSP's Springbox are great sounding vst plugins which I use for spring reverbs.

Is Spirit Reverb no longer being developed? Was my favourite but can’t see a VST3 or Apple Silicon native version or any recent changes
Annoyingly my other favourite was Overloud Springage but that also hasn't seen an up[date for yonks

just dropped a note in the "small spaces" thread, so since I'm 'here', really digging the Fuse Audio Lab VREV-305. might be my plugin of the year. I have a couple of HW units and bought 7 different vsts, liked the Aegean as it has a darker flavor, but the VREV-305 is proving to be very versatile and great sounding on my material. maybe not as "springy" as some of the others, but just excellent, mos def worth a demo.

This is currently on a BF sale for €3.90. Haven't used it myself but from the video it seems quite flexible.

Strymon BigSky is my current favourite
