  • SoundMagic Neo Reverb Review

    Sound Magic NEO Reverb Review

    What is Sound Magic NEO Reverb?

    Sound Magic’s Neo Reverb is a hybrid reverb plugin that combines two different reverb technologies to create its distinctive sound characteristics — algorithmic and Impulse Responses. This is a concise review of SoundMagic NEO Reverb.

    The unique aspect of Neo Reverb is its method of converting true stereo impulse responses into algorithms, which allows it to combine the advantages of both reverb types. This means you get the realistic spatial characteristics of convolution reverbs, with the real-time control and lower CPU usage typical of algorithmic reverbs.

    Eight Reverb Algorithms: The plugin offers eight distinct reverb types:

    • Hall
    • Concert Hall
    • Room
    • Plate
    • Chamber
    • Ambience
    • Space
