Hi all,
This question is not really a problem with hardware or software per
se, but I would just like to know what people's favorite reverbs out
there are. I used to do all of my pro audio work on Mac and Windoze,
and I'm having great success getting things working with Linux, but
I've never really found any really decent reverbs, and this is
unfortunately keeping me from doing more final mixes with Linux. What
I'm looking for is something like a LADSPA or other plugin, or a
program that will process sound non-realtime (or even destructively,
like Audacity) with some decent sounding reverbs.
The TAP Reverberator plugin was okay, I guess, but really the only
other LADSPA reverb I've come across is Freeverb, which is not good,
at least using it for intimate vocal tracks and guitars. I mainly use
Ardour for tracking and mixing, Audacity for destructive editing and
cleaning up tracks, and Csound, which I've been known to use for DSP a
bit in the past.
I only use Freeverb on stereo tracks. It doesn't sound very good to
me otherwise. Gverb is nice for mono tracks. While it's not a reverb
you might try the Tape Delay Simulation for vocals (very lightly).
You probably need to master your tracks - use JAMin (blatant plug
;-)
