New Reverb to die for...but is it low testosterone...

Seems really nice. Missing the modulation I would have wanted to be there, but really nice.
 
Got a fire sale going on for $49 for about a month introductory til they jack up the price to twice. They say no I-lock or online activation. Big plus.
 
Listened to the demos and quite cool.
 
In the past would have jumped on it, convinced that there was a niche that couldn't be covered by anything else.
 
Now, I listen and can delegate the task to one of my 50 archived reverbs to do the same thing. This is what I'm doing with a lot more software these days. Really appreciate Rain's perspective on treating a working DAW and vst setup like a hardware piece.
 
So, either I'm getting more Zen perspective about chasing an asymptote curve toward the perfect sound.
 
OR....
 
Could it be...
 
LOW TESTOSTERONE... (where was that TV commercial and the 1-800 number)
 
Buddha have mercy on me.
 
Anyway, Reverbical is another honorable contender for long, lush reverbs. Half price off til whenever.

    The demos do sound good. Algorithmic reverbs seem to be making something of a comeback at the moment.

    As you say though, how many different reverbs do I actually need on top of the dozen or so good ones I already have?

    Sonar Platinum 64bit, Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit, I7 3770K Ivybridge, 16GB Ram, Gigabyte Z77-D3H m/board,
    ATI 7750 graphics+ 1GB RAM, 2xIntel 520 series 220GB SSDs, 1 TB Samsung F3 + 1 TB WD HDDs, Seasonic fanless 460W psu, RME Fireface UFX, Focusrite Octopre.
    Assorted real synths, guitars, mandolins, diatonic accordions, percussion, fx and other stuff.

    That does sound lovely. I totally cut down my reverb collection to just two, may have to have a closer look at this.

    Caved in and did the demo.
     
    Small rooms to lush artificial extensions. Quality plug.
    Had this been 20 years ago, would have bought in without second thought.
    Slight echoy presence in the way of smoothing things out.
     
    Fired up Valhalla plate and did much of the thing.
     
    Glory of where we are at in this day and age. Couldn't find a critical niche for this. Great, but not worth spending half a week's groceries and gas money for something easily duplicated with what I already got.

    Are you looking for an overall different sound in the modulation, or just being able to dial in more of it or with different modulation types?

    Similar to the Valhalla types where you can chorus or modulate the reverb for extra depth. Reverberate 2 another good example.
