Working at a studio and we have the WAVES plugs but really coming up short on in the box reverb. At home I've been using the UA EMT/LEXICON and loving it but it wont work here because of hardware issues, any thoughts??. using PT9 HD.
what's working for y'all?
BEST REVERB PLUG?

Found some useful settings in the realverb and Rverb too. Must admit I haven't checked the IR-L out yet, the main reason is the preset impulse files aren't loaded and it isn't my studio, does anyone know where I find them??, in the hell fire of a session or I'd just hunker down and do the research...
Valhalla Room is the coolest ITB reverb I've ever run across. $50. The Reaper of Reverbs.
Like listening to a cool Reverb when you are really high. Even when you aren't.

Check out some examples on this page:

They also have a cool, seperate "Shimmer" plugin, so's you can get your inner Eno on.

One other cool thing about Valhalla - he has a forum and posts lots of tips/tricks about signal processing. Very cool business, IMHO.

I know, its crazy, isn't it? Seriously, I can't believe how fantastic, three-dimensional/natural sounding AND cheap this is.
Really easy to use (the programmer guy followed some kind of NASA protocol for ease-of-use GUI design).

This depends on what kind of reverb is appropriate for the music, and personal preference. My favorite one that I've tried was the LX480. It sounds so cool to me, but the problem with it is that it makes everything sound so "80s". Its not going to be the best fit for every use.
I've tried the valhalla, but I didn't find it better than my built in daw verbs, and I preferred tc electronic m30 at about the same price.
One verb I really like which grows on me every time I use it is the free poor plate. I don't think there's anything else that can get that great plate graininess, and I've used that a bunch. It can get tin cannish at high settings, but that's not such a problem any more as I'm getting a bit more conservative when it comes to heavy use.
I haven't actually tried out any high end verb plugins because I won't be buying one any time soon. I'm not really a big fan of the ultra dense long tail sound, because its too cheesy for my taste. On the flip side I also don't like ones that go all out to get a super realistic normal room sound, that's just boring.
I'm intrigued by aether, but I don't think my computer is good enough for it. It will be cool years from now when computers will be so powerful that it won't be an issue any more.

If you have a Waves account, you can download them from their Ir library, or order a DVD of them.nestle wrote:Found some useful settings in the realverb and Rverb too.

You can also load your own... once you know how to make them. This make IR reverbs very useful indeed.

Howling at the neighbors. Hoping they have more mic cables.
