The new reverb plug-in form Waves has already garnered praise from numerous top-flight engineers and producers including Tony Maserati, Ken "Poch" Van Druten, Gil Norton and Miles Walker. Now it's available to all. Find out more about it from its makers in the text below, or watch the video demo with Yoad Nevo.
Press Release: Waves Audio is now shipping the Waves H-Reverb plugin, a pioneering reverb based on innovative algorithmic FIR (Finite Impulse Response) reverberation technology, providing richer, deeper reverb tails that sit beautifully in the mix while breathing crisp air into your tracks.
The FIR engine that powers H-Reverb lets you shape and customize the reverb decay envelope beyond the standard linear forms, resulting in perfectly gated, real reverse, and dense reverb tails that don’t muddy up the mix. Taking things one step further, H-Reverb incorporates Waves’ advanced analog modeling along with a drive control, offering signal behavior that until now was found exclusively in high-end hardware reverb devices. This unique design also enables input drive, a technique favored by many top engineers.
To top it off, H-Reverb includes an impressive library of artist presets from the industry’s leading mixing engineers (including Toni Maserati, Brad Divens, Daniel Green, Dave Darlington, Dave Stagl, James Ebdon, Ken “Pooch” Van Druten, Kevin Madigan, Pete Keppler, Ross Hogarth and Yoad Nevo, to name just a few). Their personal settings may be the perfect space you’re looking for, or simply the perfect point to start from.
By fusing classic reverb concepts with forward-thinking features that break new ground in digital reverb processing, H-Reverb provides uncompromising sound quality and boundless creative control.
Additional features include:
- Impulse-variable resonant filtering for creating unfamiliar and advanced reverb effects
- EQ and dynamics module for compression, ducking and de-essing
- ADA analog modeling and drive control for input clipping
- Full buildup timing and shaping
- Pre-delay BPM sync
- Artist presets from the industry’s leading mixing engineers
- Support for full 5.1-channel surround setups
Mick Olesh, Waves EVP of Sales & Marketing, states, “Waves is extremely excited about releasing the H-Reverb. We went to great lengths to make this the most comprehensive and best-sounding reverb plugin possible, incorporating invaluable input from industry-leading mixing engineers.”
