- As I understand it, convo verb are only as good as their IRs. Altiverb continually updates their library with top notch IRs from world class locations. Does the library for Reverberate continually get updated as well or is it more for finding your own IRs and loading them in?

- Although IRs make the biggest difference, I believe there's something to be said for reproducing those IRs accurately. Altiverb's IRs (or at least the reproduction) along with Revolver are much more natural and useful than Waves version (IMO). How does everybody feel about Reverberate's quality?

Thanks!

Hi

The IR library in Reverberate does get updates, there was a fairly large one in 1.800, but it's not intended to be of the type that Altiverb has. Altiverb already exists, so I don't see the value in copying it's approach, rather Reverberate is about providing great tools to help craft new spaces and enrich others (for example via modulation, adding sheen, using recallable post effects creatively) using the hundreds of excellent IR libraries that others have produced as a base; many other convolvers don't provide the means to do that.

In terms of quality, I've worked hard to implement a very efficient convolution algorithm that is also very accurate, but it's probably for others to make the comparisons.

I'm glad the AAX Native 64-bit plugin is getting noticed, a lot of the Reverberate code needed to be customised for the platform, the GUI needed to be updated to sit well in that environment (VST and AU users really benefitted from this too) and optimising for the Pro Tools workflow (especially preset management) took quite a lot of time.

Well since you asked, I love Reverberate. I've tried few other convolution reverbs and I can say Reverberate can stand against all the others without any shame, even the most expensive ones. I also find Reverberate a little bit more 'creative' if I can say, I use it not only as a normal reverb but also as a special effect to transform & mangle audio, combined with it's interface and features it's especially good and creative when using strange and unusual IR'S.

As a bonus, the support is always responsive & it gets updated on a regular basis. What else can you ask? I say thanks LiquidSonics!

Matt, I don't know if I ever thanked you for Reverberate LE, but if I haven't: THANK YOU. I love everything about it. It's solid, very well designed and has no bloat.

Definitelly one of the best freebies ever. Maybe when I can I will buy Filtrate as a way of donating.

I just noticed the update today. I love reverberate and I use it on many of my tracks. I really need to get more IRs for it now.

Thanks, it's good to hear the effort is appreciated and being put to good use

Hi there, a note to say that after a user request I've added to Reverberate 1.820 the ability to allow the reverb to be flushed to silence using Midi-CC commands so you can stop a tail immediately, useful for those drop-to-silence moments if you don't want to automate the while fader or for use in a live performance. It's in VST/AU only (not AAX).

For anybody that missed the 70% off on Mobile Convolution and the 30% off Cyber Monday deal on Reverberate I'm running the same deal over the festive holiday period this year! It's a great chance to save 30% on Reverberate or almost 50% when buying the complete desktop plugins bundle (which is now the price of a single Reverberate license at full price)! Happy Holidays

A little for fun, and a little to test the market potential, Reverberate 2 is now for sale in Bitcoin! This is currently a trial (backed by Coinbase) so sales will be fulfilled manually in the short term, but if it's popular this will become a long term payment option for those who either don't like PayPal or simply are looking for a great way to spend their Bitcoins after another spike in value! Currently it's great time to buy

Interesting.
What is the price in Bitcoins ?

I ask because I notice that the exchange rate now for the AUS$ is $953.30 to buy 1 Bitcoin !!!!

The BTC price is variable, it's worked out dynamically based on the exchange rate at the time.

I see, thanks.
I really know basically very little (nothing !) about how BTC works as I've never used it !
And I already have Reverberate2 so aren't about to buy it using BTC

But your post intrigued me.
Given the exchange rate it would seem that a BTC price would have to be something like WAY less than 1 BTC to approximate the hard currency price ??

Good luck

Currently 0.165 BTC! Who knows if there's market interest, I was intrigued too
