I tend to think in terms of front to back with reverb, so I'll use a more washy reverb for parts I want to appear at the back wall of the mix and a shorter drier reverb for parts I want up front, or maybe just a short delay and no reverb if I want a part to really stand out. I'm often using my Relab LX480 as a hall reverb to get a nice wash for the backwall parts - it seems to work really well for that, and then on vocals I like to use a large ambient setting on the Relab LX480 plus another reverb usually a plate, the 480 ambinece adds some dimension and a plate adds some warmth and envolope to the vocal. I find the Relab reverb very useful to create front to back in a mix - it really is a great reveb. I think it's important not to fight physics when creating a front to back depth to a mix in as much as in reality we hear distant sounds as darker with less top due to high frequency loss as sound travels, so I don't EQ parts I want to sit on the backwall of the mix to be bright otherwise I"m fighting the illusion. Even though I have tones of reverb plugins (too many) I think I could make a great sounding album with just the Relab LX480 and the Waves Abbey Road Plates plugin. Yeah, Relab does have a lot of depth. To add to this, if you increase predelay, tracks like vocal will sound more up front, drier before the wash. Less predelay, the earlier onset of reverb will make things sound farther back.

The waves abbey road plate is def nice. I tend to use the UAD EMT140 on tons of stuff. Always works.

Still feeling my way around this thing. The navigation is pretty clunky if you ask me. For example - I can't just scroll through the different settings on each unit...you have to click and mouse. Pita actually.

Pita actually. Part of that is the fact that it's a convolution not a algorithmic, your pretty much loading a new reverb every time you change something instead of changing a number in a formula.

I've found myself using this less and less. The Bricasti impulses are nice, but it's a pain to have to keep drilling down to presets to use.

I have to agree very user unfriendly. And to my ear there is no race compared to the LEXICON PCM or the VVV. Some of the IRs sound metallic, grainy and they don't glue with the source like VVV - which is magic. Sadly the 480 Plug In is gone, it always was a reason to me to subscribe - and now its bad impulses... Jesus

This is massive huh? I've been playing with some demo's this week and started setting up this Verbsuite, but the download is huge and their server is super slow. Finally got VS down, now I'm waiting on the slow downloads of the Bricasti. Hope it's good.

Finally got VS down, now I'm waiting on the slow downloads of the Bricasti. Hope it's good. I havent tried it yet... it was a really slow download that took a few attempts... If the M7 IR's are the ones that were floating around for years, I have used them extensively. Dont think of them as a M7, you will be disappointed...think of them as what they are, free, good IR's .... cheers Wiz
