Audio Ease Altiverb 8: More powerful and more compatible than ever
The convolution reverb plug-in gets an update
Audio Ease Altiverb 8 is the latest version of the industry-standard reverb plug-in for music and post-production. Now with improved compatibility and new impulse response tools, we take a look at the new features in Altiverb 8
If you’re not familiar with Altiverb, it’s an incredibly realistic-sounding convolution reverb plug-in developed by Arjen Van Der Schoot of Audio Ease based in Utrecht, Netherlands.
Instead of using DSP algorithms exclusively, Altiverb uses an extensive sample-based library to create acoustic spaces with unprecedented quality. The extensive library provides a wide range of outdoor and indoor spaces, as well as recreations of classic reverb units and effects.
