Oh, that’s a good point. Did you check the GitHub one?

The thement one? Yes, it was nice in its own way. Kind of noisy for whatever reason, like a broken MidiVerb. And the feedback knob was cool for creating William Orb-esque crazy delays.

Try messing with the input and output of MDV-II. With the default settings, the tail is much shorter than the Thement, but with the input all the way up, the tail is the same. At the same time, the sound is brighter. I feel like there's probably some balance of I/O that will get them closer, I just haven't found it yet.Sahul wrote: Tue Mar 24, 2026 6:19 pm Yes, but it doesn’t actually affect the length of the reverb tail. My impression, having compared both plugins with IRs from the actual unit, is that Turbo Alexis really nails it, whereas MDV-II shortens the tail, at least in this particular preset.

Both clip at 0dBFS and then quantize, if you do so you would be hitting MVII harder.Uncle E wrote: Tue Mar 24, 2026 8:06 pm Try messing with the input and output of MDV-II.

For comparison purposes if you apply 6dB input gain on MVIi then you should move the in peak level to -6dB on TurboAlexis, which will give even better tails there too but will clip the input at -6dB. The In peak level knob in turboalexis is basically a gain compensated input gain.

I’m on Mac so no TurboAlexis for me.
