The one I've been working on should be available in a few weeks and IMO it is more versatile than anything else. Then of course there are halls, rooms, chambers, plates and even springs.

Others are more like effects that don't sound real, but can create a beautiful sound. Some reverbs sound like real rooms and spaces, which IMO works well when you have a dry recording and want it to sound like it has some space sound it. The basic thing IMO is realistic vs surreal and reverb types. I'd guess most commercial reverbs(algorithmic) are different and can't sound exactly the same. In fact from what I've seen they are pretty much a black box. There are a lot of differences between reverbs. I've been making presets/algorhithms for an upcoming reverb plugin, so I've been quite a bit of research. TSAR-1R still sounds pretty good, but with really quite basic settings and not many options. worth $50)? Blackhole and Shimmer seem to have some less-realistic effect options for texture that the others may not.ĮDIT: This makes more sense: I have TSAR-1R, not TSAR-1 (which looks to be much more fully functional, unsurprisingly). So, with the relatively "clean" 2016 Stereo Room and the vintage TSAR-1, would you consider Blackhole or Shimmer on top of this as really adding anything of value (i.e. I definitely will pay more attention to it, thank you!

Thank you for this! I got it in a free bundle from Softube and, typical human irony, I didn't pay that much attention to it as Stereo Room had a bit more customization options and I truthfully sort of forgot about TSAR-1.

Thanks, that gives a great idea of what they're like. Your descriptions on what you'd use it for are practical (thank you), but the bolded part, believe it or not, is probably one of the most helpful ways of describing what it sounds like. The best of all worlds, and perhaps an example of where more plugin designers will (hopefully) go in the future."

Rather, it takes the common characteristics of much of the best-loved classics, and brings them all together with a highly useable, somehow ‘authentic’ sound (if that’s not an oxymoron?), and a very cool interface. A point worth noting about the TSAR-1 is that, unlike the UA EMT 140 Plate for example, it’s not a straight ’emulation’ of any one piece of celebrated vintage gear. "Best Vintage Or ‘Character’ Reverb: Several of the plugins on this list could arguably lay claim to this category, but special mention has to go to Softube’s TSAR-1. It really is great to have a reverb plugin that “just works masterfully”, but Softube didn’t stop there…" Turn the knobs in just about any combination and you have a space that is useable in many situations… it may not be the current situation but you will find yourself saying, “I need to remember that one” quite a bit. TSAR-1 doesn’t have a setting that sounds remotely bad. Softube has made a plugin that is very easy to achieve the exact space you are hearing in your head. I was relying less on presets like I do in most reverb plugins and simply making my own. "In use, I found TSAR-1 to be one of the easiest reverb plugins to use. Here are are two relatively recent reviews: You really might want to check it out a bit more in your mixes. Keep in mind that you already have TSAR-1, and thus there is some overlap with certain Lex, EMT, AMS, Eventide, and other vintage models of the world.
