Our ears are used to hearing ambience and echoes caused by real-life spaces, so the application of reverb is an essential tool for adding depth and realism to mix elements. Getting reverb right is an important part of making your productions and mixdowns sound their best, so Acon Digital (creators of the commercial Verberate) have created CM Verb - a state-of-the-art algorithmic reverb plugin exclusively for Computer Music readers.
Reverb plugins are often bloated, intimidating and overly-complicated - but not CM Verb. It's a deceptively simple but gorgeous-sounding VST and AU effect for PC and Mac, hiding away its sublime-sounding inner workings behind a streamlined interface. Its five reverb programs are versatile and highly tweakable, with direct access to the most handy parameters from its front panel. It's perfect for both quick experimentation and as a go-to mixing tool - for beginners and seasoned pros alike.
Features and uses:
- Five sublime-sounding reverb algorithms
- Incredibly realistic and detailed sound to rival convolution alternatives
- Versatile programs - from short rooms to cavernous spaces
- Variable reverb time - from 0.10 seconds to 32 seconds
- Convenient high and low-pass filters - quickly sculpt your reverb in the mix

- Compact interface for intuitive, no-nonsense programming
