Eventide has released the SP2016 Reverb plug-in, a model of one of their more popular effects from the 1980’s. Known for its signature by mix and recording engineers like Mick Guzauski, Roy Hendrickson,
George Massenburg, Dave Pensado, and Allen Sides, the SP2016 can be heard on several hit records from the time period, including Madonna, Mariah Carey, and Emimen.
Eventide SP2016 Features:
» Three distinct reverb types, each available in two versions: Vintage and Modern. The Modern algorithms are brighter, more diffused, and use higher bit resolution.
— Room: Basic no-nonsense, no-frills ambient ‘room.’ The extreme pre-delay range makes it possible to use this effect for reverberant doubling and single echoes.
— Stereo Room: Recreates the ambience of a large concert hall, with very clear, natural reverberation.
— Hi-Density Plate: Plate reverb with dual pickups simulating the effect of a big, heavy plate allowing users to make vocals, guitars, and percussive instruments appear much bigger and brighter than they actually are.
» Unique Position control allows users to take their listeners from the back of the room all the way to the stage while retaining all of their other settings.
» Control the structure of the reverb by fine-tuning the controls — including PREDELAY, DECAY, POSITION, and DIFFUSION. The EQ section allows for simple high and low filtering of the reverb with adjustable filter ranges. The low filter can be used to cut or boost at the specified frequency.
» Boasts a variety of artist presets including some by Dave Pensado, Joe Chiccarelli, Richard Devine, Sasha, George Massenberg, The Butcher Bros., Buda &Grandz, Erin Tonkon, and more.
Eventide’s new SP2016 Reverb costs $249 and is available now in the AAX/AU/VST plug-in flavors for Mac and PC.
