Overview

AIR Studios Reverb is an advanced convolution reverb plugin created in collaboration with the team at the iconic AIR Studios in London. It features proprietary Virtual Positioning Technology that allows precise placement of sounds anywhere within the legendary Lyndhurst Hall, offering a highly realistic acoustic experience.

Features

• Over 67,000 impulse responses capturing various positions and configurations within the hall.
• Virtual Positioning Technology for placing sound sources in 3D space of the recording hall.
• Ability to adjust the direction a sound radiates within the hall using rotation controls.
• Mixing and blending of up to 8 individual true stereo microphone signals (tree, outriggers, binaural, ambient, gallery, etc.).
• Configurable hall settings including canopy height (low, medium, high), canopy material (wood or Melatech), gallery dampening and hall layout inversion.
• Control over direct sound, early reflections, and reverb tail levels with graphical EQ for shaping the audio.
• A comprehensive preset library with 54 curated presets designed for different instruments and mixing scenarios.
• Support for convolution reverb effects as AU, VST2, VST3, and AAX plugins requiring Spitfire Audio's own player application.

Technical Information

Usage and Authenticity

The plugin recreates signature reverbs from AIR Studios' Lyndhurst Hall, including the configuration where musicians face the control room and another iconic setup where they face the organ as used in Hans Zimmer scores. This is achieved through mirrored mic placements and dedicated speaker positioning.

Users can fine-tune both the physical characteristics of the hall and microphone signals to create bespoke reverberation effects.
