My go-to reverb in everything
This is such a nice lush and versatile reverb. I use it in every song, cause it makes everything sound better. Hardware synth plucks and pads? Check. Atmosphere sample FX? Check. VSTs? Check. It's worth the money and makes everything sound fantastic.
Preferred Settings + Usage:
Big fan of DarkCathedral, with the Mix and Decay times pulled down some, according to what the sound needs

Best buy reverb!
Imagine a high quality lexicon reverb but for less than a fifth of the price. This plugin sounds just awesome, it's great on vocals, leads and pretty much anything you throw at it. I personally don't use it for shorter verbs and think it sounds best doing lush big sounding halls. The GUI maybe a little simple and flat but don't let that turn you off, just check it out and you'll never look back.

Yeah, I have really wanted to try this out. The R4 reverb looks sick too. It's tough buying another reverb plug tho. I'm kinda lookin for that last reverb plugin...short of the VSS3 price tag. This one was very reasonable priced if remember correctly.

I love valhalla
Another great reverb plugin from Valhalla. I have vintage verb and I use that quite a lot. I bought this on a whim because I wanted to explore a different plugin. I had no desire to look further than Valhalla though :) It sounds really good and has additional tools for creating more special reverbs.

Diggin' it.
KICK ASS GUI. I'm not 100% sure on 4 stars just yet, but if things continue to go as well as in my last mix it'll definitely see a fair amount of action. The extra control is great & kinda lends itself to Ableton users a bit. Unless you've done the .txt hack it's pretty damn annoying not being able to see what plugins you've got on every track at a glance. Nice having a lots to tweak right there.
Adore the possibilities it offers. The whole Valhalla range is brilliant.
I pretty much use this on everything but the most simple of sounds, for which I would use a DAW's built-in reverb. But for medium to important sounds - it's Valhalla all the way. Great sculpting capabilities, especially playing with the stereo spread of early and late reflections to create unique dimensions. Beautiful and very CPU-friendly.
