#Valhalla shimmer reason free#
I slept on this for a while after they gave it away free when first released. One other thing you might check out is Raum by NI, (I'm pretty sure this is the reverb and delay section of Massive X).
It's not as reverby as Room and VV, basically VH delay has its own place. That said I wouldn't use it to replace one of the other two.
It's the most bang-for-my-buck VH plugin I have.
#Valhalla shimmer reason plus#
Not only is it a great delay, you can turn it into a reverb and do some pitch shifting in it (covering some of Shimmer's tricks), plus it has saturation and different delay algroithms. You might actually demo VH delay alongside it. I know it's well liked, but a lot more niche. I'd demo both and see if you like one more than the other. (VH delay too, it's my default delay these days.) Room's a great all around workhorse reverb, Vintage Verb is as well but has its own sound. So any suggestions to my situation? Am I missing some crucial other reverb in Valhalla family? Could I go just with Room and when needed add colour with tube saturator? Im so clueless here.Ĭlick to expand.I have Room, Plate, Vintage Verb, and Delay. Other thing is that in addition to reverb buses, I quite much put reverbs straight to tracks so what I would need is also EQuing the reverb and Im not sure if Room has reverb eq(/hi-low cuts). I think I would basically need both, because I understand that Room would be the "clear" one.
I understand that ValhallaRoom is kind of de facto reverb nowadays, but I have heard good things about ValhallaShimmer which in my understanding is supposed to give some colour to reverb. I'm mainly doing cinematic/hybrid orchestral stuff so I don't need hyperrealistic reverbs, I use them more for creating atmospheres (you know, that same old epic spacey whatsisit). I'm quite short on money once again so I don't want to buy multiple reverbs (even when they are Valhalla cheap). I'm not too pleased with (or I simply cannot use.) Studio One 4's stock reverbs (convolution one is quite ok for me).īecause everyone and their sister has Valhalla stuff I thought that I cannot go too wrong with those. I've been looking for new reverb(s) lately.
