MuLab's MuVerb is good.

Hybrid Reverb and Ableton's stock reverb and Echo's Reverb.

Actually with all three Reverbs there isn't much need for 3rd party Reverb.

Hybrid is great for weird/dense reverbs and allows you to mix in more realistic convolution reverbs. It is clearly becoming Ableton's workhorse Reverb.

The stock Reverb has been improved and sounds much cleaner and is very CPU efficient.

Hands up if you mentioned your DAW of choice!

With Ableton Live 11's effects, there's not much need for a 3rd party plugin.

Cubase has great reverbs. Best FX of any daw really.

Bitwigs new convolution is great. The original reverb was ok, but needs some finessing with eq etc, but you can add things into its reverb feedback, which makes it flexible. Just not so immediate.

Hybrid Reverb in Ableton. Love it.

I'm a Mulab user and the stock reverbs are only slightly better than plain Schroeder reverbs, i.e. not that great. It's serviceable for adding a touch, but anything beyond that, a third-party reverb is required.

bitwig's because you can put anything you want in the tank feedback loop. Add a chorus if you want modulation, add pitch shifter if you want shimmer, slap a copy of pro-q to shape the tails w/ EQ, add saturation, add more reverb inside the reverb. Many possibilities.

Reason's RV7000 has been the most enjoyable to use, low CPU, sounds nice and it's flexible (algorithmic + convolution).

Ableton's new reverb looks nice but haven't tried it.

REAPER's reverbs suck but you can get some nice JFX ones for free.

But we live in a world where Raum and Supermassive are free, so...

I think we have reached a point where VST Reverbs are truly amazing sounding.

I remember back in like 2004 Sonar getting a Lexicon Reverb (which was the studio reverb standard at the time) so I was very excited to try. Let's just say I was highly disappointed in the sound. Having never owned a Lexicon reverb box, the plugin left a horrible impression of Lexicon. I wondered if someone (without the experience of veteran Lexicon developers) just created a reverb and payed Lexicon to put their name on it. Some of the later Lexicon VSTs did sound much better.

The RV7000 was one of the few DAW reverbs back then that actually sounded great and had character and you could tell Props took their time on that one.

Now most DAWS have pretty decent Reverbs and if they don't, plenty of Freeware sounds much better than the stock Reverbs of 20 years ago and just spending like $50 on a VST Reverb often get you something that is pretty great sounding.

If you are using a literal definition of DAW then probably the DAW builtin to Amplitube 5 Max would have the best reverbs. However, no one here would use it for real production.

This is an odd metric to choose either a DAW or a Reverb, though. Why avoid plugins here?

And Raum is free (please don't atack me)

Really disappointed more than a week has gone by and nobody has executed you and fed your screams through chromaverb so we can all see the colours of your sacrifice.

Not saying the others are bad but if you want the best.....

Cubase for sure has more plugins, many of them great and some of them best in class.

Any competent producer can create a good-sounding mix with stock plugins, regardless of the DAW. In a blind test, no one would even know.

That being said, I'm not sure why this matters. Who buys a DAW for the built-in reverb? Especially when there are so many quality free and inexpensive reverb plugins available.
