Topic: Preview: Zynewave zReverb

Oh btw, why not have a user library for the presets, so if anyone turns out to be adept at tuning the settings they could send in presets themselves? Not that I am volunterring, I am pretty confused myself tbh hehe.

First I though, “hmm… that brushed metal texture is kinda hard to see at first”. But still, I feel you’ve hit the contrast balance spot on. Even though the texture is there, it doesn’t scream for attention and therefore doesn’t dominate the GUI.
Simply said, I like it a lot! Nice touch! How did you make the texture? 🙂

About the zReverb:
16 individual delay parameters, intriguing! Can hardly wait until I hear what it sounds like and what it can do 😀

I noticed you have all 16 delays numbered, except for the one I can see as “Delay 1”. Instead, you call it “Delay time”. Will this be the internal pre-delay for the entire reverb?

Wish you all a pleasant summer 8)

I’ve also considered a small competition, perhaps on KvR, where I will give a Podium license to the one that can come up with the best zReverb presets. That way I would also get some presets for the default zReverb bank. You think that’s a good idea?

The new zReverb look is better than the previous one IMHO. The parameter values e.t.c are certainly easier to read. Nice.

Quite a complex reverb for your first effort. Well done. 😉

I think giving away a free license on KVR is a very good idea. While the thread would of course discuss the reverb itself, I think the hosts forum would be a good place to start the thread instead of the KVR effects forum. Maybe this too was your plan.

You might even hint at possibly repeating a free giveaway again when another zPlug surfaces like a compressor.

Of course the aim is not so much to get the presets but to raise Podiums Profile. Competitions certainly have a way of generating interest in a product.

I think a thread headliner title like “Free Podium License” should raise more than a few eyebrows. 😉

If you do go ahead with this you might want to make the most of their full attention at KVR by running a poll within the same competition thread to find out what plug they would like to see next.

zSampler
zCompressor
zFilter
zChorus
zPhaser
ZLimiter

Why?…because instead of a brief spike in interest at KVR you could maintain that interest a bit longer by at least providing KVR members who might not frequent here with a chance to participate in not only a possible preset reverb competition, but also an opportunity to take part in future competitions of this nature for future zPlugs.

Just a thought… 😉

Just tried this baby out. WOW! What a reverb…!

I think the surprisingly high quality of this plug will surprise many new users. Very nice work here Frits. A very high quality reverb, well worth the time and effort spent on it. 8)
