Difficult to explain. A lot of reverbs can provide the room ambiance (tail length, size, density etc.) but a lot of them actually just sound like the result of the sound source being in a metal box. If you go to a really old church (I mean like 15th century etc.), made from stone, wood, plaster combined with very soft fabrics, there is a natural reverb that doesn't sound harsh, it has breath to the tail and the hi's aren't over exaggerated. In fact thinking about it now a lot of reverbs just make make the hi's sound so harsh, I suppose that would be a factor in the warmth of a reverb.
For a warm reverb I want to be able to hear some of that mid and upper mid have a slight nice sounding coloration.
Anyway, it's all subjective and what I find warm might just be distortion to you? |

reason's RV7000 is all I need
As far as vst's go, sonicflavours has to my taste the best reverb out there. |

Slightly off topic but the UAD card plugs are that good? Now that the UAD2 is out probably be a good time to grab one as the price has dropped? Or would you save and spend a little more and get a UAD2? |
I'll be selling 2 of my UAD1 cards in the new year when all of my plugins have been ported over to UAD2
Quad mmmmmmm:eyes:
And yes, they are that good |

UAD1 and 2 use the same technology and run the same plugs but UAD2 has more processing power on it(multiple chips as opposed to just 1 chip). Highly recommend, amazing stuff! |

Nice one for all the replies. What would you say is the "warmest" reverb that you use then?

| I like to take the standard Fl studio reverb and put a distortion on it, just it not the original sound. |

Have you heard any of the new reverbs on the UAD2 platform? I was never all that impressed with the majority of the UAD1 reverbs, save the Plate 140, so I'm curious to see if it sounds any better. |

Yep. It's an ugly ringing sound, that so many software reverbs have.
My choice is IK Multimedia CSR. |
