When I watch GS I see that there are quit a few oldies high on the 'best reverbs' list. That will be partly because of the hype, partly because of the sound. There are a lot of great sounding old machines to be ported over to newer formats.
These oldschool algos are fun to play around with. Generating enough randomness is important to making smooth and lush reverbs with this kind of reverbs. It is awsome to see ideas on this topic in this open forum.
When building reverbtanks (three series of four small delay blocks) I listen to first series of delays, spacing them up, then adding the next series. Then tweaking the second delaytimes so it generates the most smooth (least ringy) responce. I also did this with the third series. The outcome is a bit different when comparing it to the golden ratios known.
I am using VSIG on the H8000 for developing new algos. ATM we are porting some of those algos over to VST-format. I am amazed how much difference these ports make. VSIG is fast and fun to work with, but not always superaccurate.
