Audio Ease has released Altiverb 5, a significant upgrade of their convolution reverb plug-in for Mac OS X.
Altiverb uses top quality samples of real spaces to create reverb, ranging from Sydney Opera House to the cabin of a fire truck. It offers an extensive set of parameters, it supports all plug-in formats on the Mac (VST, AU, MAS, RTAS, HTDM and now also AudioSuite), parameter automation and surround. Altiverb 5 lets you sample your own spaces, and Audio Ease claim that Altiverb is by far the most efficient convolution reverb.
