Would somebody be willing to post some audio examples of some of these hardware reverbs? I'd love to compare the sound to some of my convolution reverbs. |
The algorithms on the Bricasti require some considerable processing power and the ADDA convertors colour the sound to some reasonable degree. Convolution gets you pretty close but I believe only dynamic convolution can replicate the nonlinearities that are important to many algorithms. For a good summary of the differences between plugins and hardware reverb check out Casey Dowdell and thethrillfactor's posts in this thread
