12 Unique Reverb Machines

Feel the mechanical tension of the Spring reverbs. Hear the floating particles of the Cloud machine. Create deep, majestic harmonies with Shimmer. BigSky gives you twelve stellar, musically inspirational reverb machines.

• Hall Reverb - Diffused reflections and slower-building density are the hallmarks of this beautiful and versatile reverb. The Concert size is well-balanced, spacious and warm, while the Arena size is enveloping, huge and booming.

• Plate Reverb - The Plate machine is a rich, fast-building reverb that creates depth without early reflection cues to a specific environment. The Tone and Low End controls are simple but powerful frequency shaping tools. Combined with any heartfelt vocal performance, this reverb is a dream.

• Spring Reverb - The standalone spring tank became a staple of surf and spaghetti-western music that developed in the ’60s. The Spring machine allows
  for complete customization from warm and mellow to splashy and dripping with its Tone and Mix Controls, Dwell parameter, and selectable number of springs.

• Swell Reverb - The Swell machine brings in the reverb gradually behind the dry signal for subtle evolving textures, like having a volume pedal on the wet signal. Alternatively, you can choose to have the dry signal swelled into the reverb for maximum ambience and atmosphere.

• Bloom Reverb - In the ‘90s, more diffusion blocks were added to digital reverbs in order to smooth out the sound. A side effect of this was the tendency of the reverbs to have a slowly building envelope that “bloomed,” resulting in big ambient reverbs that sit nicely with the dry signal even at high Mix levels. The Bloom reverb features a bloom generating section that feeds into a traditional reverb tank, and adds a unique Feedback parameter that expands the possibilities exponentially.

• Cloud Reverb - A gorgeously big, ambient reverb that draws from techniques developed in the late ’70s. Using processing power not dreamed of in those days, the Cloud reverb machine obscures the distinction between reality and fantasy.

• Chorale Reverb - A vocal choir accompanies your music. Choose vowel ranges and intensities to customize your choir as it sings in venues that vary with the Decay knob. As the Modulation is increased, the choir becomes alive with a multitude of voices. 

• Shimmer Reverb - Two tunable voices add pitch-shifted tones to the reverberated signal, for resplendent, unearthly ambience. The voices are carefully created from the reverberated signal itself to generate maximum radiance and beauty. The Amount and Mode parameters allow for a range of shimmer effects from laid-back and subtle to full-blown majestic splendor.

• Magneto Reverb - A new style of music emerged in the late ’50s, featuring the guitar as the lead voice, enhanced by the reverberated wash of a multi-head echo. The Magneto machine sets up a multi-head echo with all heads on, with adjustable head spacing and feedback amount. The Diffusion parameter adds a new dimension of ambience, smearing the response of the heads and blurring the line between delay and reverb.

• Nonlinear Reverb - A variety of physics-defying reverb shapes are available for special effects and unique textures. Choose from three “backwards” shapes (Swoosh, Reverse, and Ramp), plus gated reverb and more. Feedback control, Late Reverb, and Diffusion parameters allow for a vast array of time-warped possibilities.

• Reflections Reverb - The Reflections machine is a psychoacoustically accurate small-space reverb that allows you to move your source anywhere in the room. The Reflections algorithm precisely calculates 250 reflections based on the source position within the chosen room shape. The psychoacoustic modifiers adjust for human auditory perception, creating an ambient space of unparalleled realism for dry instrument or vocal tracks.

• Room Reverb - A versatile room algorithm that creates environments ranging from well-tuned studio ambience to larger night club acoustics. The Tone knob, Diffusion and Low End parameters adjust the damping and scattering effects of room materials, furniture, and people.

Intuitive Controls.

A user interface should empower your creativity without getting in the way of it. We’ve handpicked the most essential reverb controls and tailored their range and functionality so that sounds can be created effortlessly without extended tweaking. The layout naturally and intuitively adjusts to control the feature set of each reverb machine.

Infinite Sustain / Freeze

Infinite reverb sustain is available at a click of BigSky's Hold button. A switch selects between Infinite and Freeze functionality for the Hold button. Infinite allows your reverbs to sustain indefinitely, with each new note you play adding to the reverb signal. Freeze also delivers infinite sustain, but allows you to play new unprocessed notes on top of the sustained signal without adding to the reverb.
