Waves IR1 Convolution Reverb: Convolution Reverb Plugin

Maybe you’d like to record in the Sydney Opera House. Or in the Grand Ole Opry. Or in the Manhattan Center or in Wembley Stadium or in Birdland. Or record dialogue in a stairwell a church a car interior or on the Todd-AO scoring stage. For all of these—you want IR1.

Convolution reverb’s uncanny ability to reproduce hyper-realistic acoustic environments is well-known but IR1’s 2 000+ impulse responses are what truly bring convolution reverb to life. Algorithmic Reverb Familiarity With IR1 editing convolution reverb can be just as easy as editing conventional algorithmic reverb. You’ll find familiar reverb parameters—like RT60 decay time size density ER buildup and a 4-band EQ to set damping.

Superior Shaping Despite impulse responses being static the envelope shaper allows non-linear responses—faster or slower decay gated responses tails that swell up before decaying rhythmic chopping and more. Shift Into Reverse The innovative Reverse mode reverses the tail but not the original sound being processed. The result is ghostly evocative reverb that still retains the intelligibility of vocals and instrument attack/decay characteristics.
