| One of the things that are missing in DAW reverbs today is the actual designers themselves.
In the early days of digital reverb you had some of the best scientists around developing the algorithtms:
Dr. Barry Blesser and Karl O Baeder who helped design the EMT250, David Griesinger of Lexicon, Tony Agnello of Eventide, Chris Moore of Ursa Major, the Quantec designers,etc.
These guys were trying to get the most out of what the technology had to offer at the time.
And remember back then the gear was expensive so things were designed with the word "World Class" in mind.
The problem with today's plug in designers is that it feels sometimes they are making plugs that fill niches instead of "world class" tools.
The money is no object type tools.
Now there are a few, but you make an expensive plug that's worth it and then you get everybody complaining that its too expensive and not worth it. |
