In reply to Neytcev. I'd rather have a good sounding plugin that literally is just a poop emoji poorly drawn than an ok sounding plugin that looks beautiful. Looks are just made to take your attention away from sound sometimes. At that less strain on the computer.

It’s alright. I think it works the best with “bigness” and “longness” knobs to minimum and a lot of darkness. So suitable for small dark rooms. But the more you open up the controls, the more grainy and “metallic” it comes. Diffusion and modulation controls, that seem to be a standard even in free reverbs are needed here. I feel it sounds a bit dated and reminds me a bit of some of the 90s rack units (Alesis reverbs etc), so if you’re going for a sound like that this could be for you. Otherwise I don’t think it really does anything that other reverbs don’t already do.

That “Galactic” reverb however feels much more usable with it’s Replace and Detune controls.

In reply to Neytcev. At least you're honest (or hopefully just trolling).

In reply to 130R. Yep, great tip/. i make template racks for all VST plugins this way. Especially with Live 11's ability to have up to 16 macros, it's really nice.

Hi Seba, it’s a great plugin and we already featured it on BPB: https://bedroomproducersblog.com/2020/12/29/giant-verb/

If anyone uses Ableton it’s really easy to map Airwindows controls to macros in Live so they basically function like a native Live device.

This reminds me of “Giant Verb” from “Digital Systemics Emulations”:

You should really mention this young developer from France. He deserves it. His plugins are all free and have a good quality!

I was amazed when I first heard the demo for Verbity on GS! Such a good sounding reverb. U

sually I stay away from Airwindows plugins due to the lack of visual feedback, but in the case of this simple, 4 parameter reverb it doesn’t really matter (dynamics plugin without GR meter are another story).

Verbity is wonderful, and while we’re talking about it, another one has been released: Galactic, for ambient music approach and lush pads. Chris Johnson is a collective in one person.
