Audioease Altiverb 8 XL

Audioease Altiverb 8 XL is the reference of convolution reverb plugins. It enhances audio by simulating playback in various real-world spaces. It incorporates the acoustics of notable locations, from the Sydney Opera House to a Scottish underground oil tank. This plugin allows users to add the unique sound signatures of global spaces to both recordings and live audio.

Global Acoustic Sampling

Audio Ease has set the industry standard by recording the acoustics of the world’s finest-sounding spaces for an extended period. The company’s meticulous approach has culminated in hundreds of these recordings, ranging from the ancient caves in Malta to iconic venues like London’s Wembley Stadium and Tokyo’s concert halls.

Enhanced Impulse Response Browser

The newly designed Impulse Response browser enhances user experience with instant, gapless loading features, the ability to search for similar-sounding spaces, and the ability to organise by reverb length. Users can easily navigate through the library using clickable photos of rooms, adjust the browser size, and utilise its comprehensive search field.

Diverse Venues and Studios

Altiverb 8 includes first-class orchestral recording studios across the US East and West Coasts, such as Todd-AO and 20th Century Fox, whose sounds persist despite the physical studios no longer existing. Additionally, it encompasses a broad spectrum of recording studios and live spaces from global cities like Paris and Tokyo.

Everyday and Unusual Spaces

The plugin extends its reach to everyday environments, transport modes like kitchens, trains, and planes, and unique and sonically odd spaces such as museums and sewer pipes.
