Reverb Plugins For Mac


Free reverb VSTs used to be significantly less capable than their commercial counterparts. They were notorious for sounding artificial and metallic or, simply put, much less pleasing than the paid plugins and hardware units. Luckily, things have drastically changed for the better in recent years with the release of plugins like Orilriver, Dragonfly Reverb, MuVerb, Cloud Seed, and others.




Reverb Plugins For Mac

OrilRiver is the best freeware reverb VST plugin you can download right now. It is a versatile, feature-packed, and great-sounding stereo reverb effect that is on par with some of the best commercial reverbs on the market. Capable of delivering beautiful hall reverbs and simulating the reverberation of smaller rooms, it is our go-to reverb effect in most mixing scenarios.


The CPU hit is unusually low for a reverb plugin, especially considering the sound quality on offer. OrilRiver consumes around 4% of available CPU resources on our test machine, leaving room for multiple reverb instances with different settings (small room, large hall, etc.).


OldSkoolVerb is our favorite all-around reverb plugin. It delivers all the basic reverb types while sprinkling a bit of vintage digital reverb flavor on top. The plugin includes five different delay modes (room, hall, plate, and more), a 3-band equalizer, pre-delay, time, stereo width, and damping controls.


Loosely mimicking the sound of classic reverb units by Lexicon and Eventide, OldSkoolVerb is a decent freeware alternative to plugins like UltraReverb ($199), PSP 2445 EMT ($149), TSAR-1R ($99), BREVERB 2 ($169), and others. An extended version of the plugin called OldSkoolVerb Plus (49.95) is also available, adding a powerful spatialization module to the feature set of the freeware edition.


TAL-Reverb 4 was recently updated with a new user interface and a new algorithm that sounds even smoother than before. This plugin is perfect for producers who want a great-sounding reverb with a simple user interface. The front panel only features six knobs and a single button, making TAL-Reverb 4 one of the most streamlined reverbs on this list.


Cloud Seed is the way to go if you need a huge 80s-style reverb effect. You can think of it as a freeware alternative to commercial plugins like Valhalla Shimmer ($50) or even Eventide Blackhole ($199).


Whereas a full-featured plugin with multiple control parameters is required in most situations, sometimes you just need a quick reverb effect to add to a channel and dial in the proper settings as quickly as possible. Reverb SOLO was designed to do just that with its simple one-knob interface and plug-and-play workflow.


Developed by Acon Digital, the company behind the popular Verberate reverb effect and the excellent free chorus VST plugin called Multiply, Reverb SOLO is a serious mixing tool despite its simple looks. The central knob is a macro control that simultaneously alters the size and the tone of the reverb effect, transforming from a small room to a large hall in a single movement. The dry/wet slider on the bottom is used to control the volume of the reverb effect.


MuVerb is another great reverb plugin for emulating large spaces. It is the native reverb effect in MuTools MuLab but is also available as a VST plugin for Windows and macOS. MuVerb sounds fantastic and will do wonders on synth sounds, drones, or any other mix element that needs to sound huge. The sound quality comes at the price of higher CPU consumption, though.


Riviera is a rather unique reverb plugin in that it is a combination of an algorithmic and a convolution reverb. It uses some smart DSP coding to reduce the CPU consumption while delivering very realistic emulation of room, plate, string, and other reverb sounds.


Mverb is a strong candidate for a go-to reverb effect if you find OrilRiver and OldSkoolVerb too advanced or cumbersome to use. Everything can be achieved in a few mouse clicks in Mverb, with a decent range of room and larger hall reverbs. The plugin is open-source and ported for Windows, Mac, and Linux machines.


epicVerb and Ambience are maybe most serious among these IMO, but newbie can easily mess up with lot of controls which are not so intuitive when talking about reverb phenomena. So i prefer ClassicReverb and mVerb,bacause of very few and easy to undersand pots


Early attempts at reverb processors might not sound quite like a real room, but they have a character all their own which has endured to modern times. OldSkoolVerb aims to get you the sound of classic reverbs in your DAW, thanks to its simple algorithms that emulate the way early stereo reverb processors used to work.


With Room Size, PreDelay, Stereo Width and EQ controls, TAL-Reverb2 nets you a good few controls to customise your free reverb sound, but most of the interesting work happen under the hood. This one is great for long, ambient delays that transport you to world of soundscapes.


This PC/Mac reverb plugin was originally created as an experiment by developer u-he to gather feedback on what makes a reverb algorithm sound great. The idea was that you randomize the Model and Delays algorithms until you find something good and unique, and you send the code that represents them to u-he to give your feedback.


But let us not focus on who won when there are so many goodies to consider. Several in the list have been well-known for years, but nonetheless we will take you on a quick stroll down plugin-lane to check out the reverberation units on display!


This massive reverb device actually serves as a super delay unit as well, and can do just about anything in between. Those who know their Super Massives know this plugin is designed for huge unending swells, echoes that curve back on themselves, and several humongous effects that tend to bend time and space themselves.


For all intents and purposes, Oril River could have won just the same, but since its development is dropped, so has its general popularity in the freebie lane of plugins. This does not mean though that it is no longer any good, because if it still works in your DAW, and it should, for many it could still beat even paying for an alternative.


As an experimental room simulator, ProtoVerb builds an entire body of air with as many resonances as possible, resulting in naturally-sounding reverberations with a character setting it apart from most other reverb units. For instance multiple instruments do not wash away in a smear of reverb but remain freakishly distinct. Also, effects like ghost-echoes and resonance-build-ups are attainable.


Designed to complement their initial release of the Teufelsberg Impulse Response Set, this plugin uses 6 different Impulse Responses recorded at the Berlin surveillance tower and offers zero-latency convolution and lush airy reverberation as a result. The Mix and Gain knobs are there to tweak the selected Reverb Type, and there is also an A/B compare and preset saving function to compare and save your settings.


Like this extensive list of features alludes to, do not let its modest 5th place deter you from exploring its possibilities. Meldaproduction is a top-notch company with top-notch plugins and a top-notch interface to tie them all together. This one is not to be trifled with, but to be fiddled with in the most extreme yet musically reverberating ways!


This unit is worded as a modulation Plate reverberation unit with a diffuse sound and a vintage after-taste. And as luck may have it, this one just received an update from its developer, replacing the interface and preset browser for a cleaner fresher look and a tighter belt to run with. It now looks as smooth as it rides.


As our audio gear became more sophisticated, we came up with many solutions to add reverb without having to have large spaces to suit our needs. This became the origin of what a lot of modern-day reverb plugins try to emulate.


Plain and simple, the reverb of a room. Most room reverbs are an emulation of a studio room designed for the purpose of having a specific sound to them. The main purpose of a room reverb is to for most or all elements of your mix to have a shared space. Think of this like a cohesive glue that places sounds into one real space.


Hall reverbs sound big, smooth, and spacious. They are the sound of the reverberations in a large space, like concert halls, cathedrals or concert venues. These large and flowing reverbs generally push a sound further back in a mix.


Chamber reverbs were an invention to make reverb accessible without requiring massive spaces. They were basically a small side-room or chamber (hence the name) that had a lot of angles and was covered in very reflective surfaces.


The timbre of the reverb would be highly dependent on the material used for the plate, but plate reverbs are famous for their bright and smooth sound. Because of their brighter tone, plate reverbs are great for elements at the front of the mix.


Convolution reverbs use samples (called impulse responses, or just IR) of real-life spaces to recreate how that space sounds. These reverbs can make very realistic sounding reverbs since they are based off actual naturally occurring reverbs.


Price: This one is pretty straight forward. How much will the recommended reverb plugin in question set you back? We'll update this article in the future, so these prices should reflect current prices.


Verbsuite includes models of many classic digital reverb units that were staples in the major studios many of our favorite records were produced and mixed in. This makes it extremely versatile as by switching the model you can completely change the tone of the reverb.


Uses: While it can be used on anything, I like using it when I want a bit of an unnatural reverb tail. Try it out on synths, drums, FX, reverb throws, long tail reverbs, and when you want wide reverbs.


Character: With three modes, Raum can sound pretty different based on your needs. I love it because it is designed to sound very different from the traditional reverbs we are used to using and hearing. You can make some wacky unnatural effects with this plugin.
