Waves H-Reverb Hybrid Reverb

H-Reverb creates an entirely new class of deep, rich, and realistic reverb, by augmenting the rich flexibility of algorithmic reverb with the lifelike realism of convolution technology. From simple rooms to complex halls—and beyond—H-Reverb sets the standard for unparalleled flexibility.

With H-Reverb you can create natural-sounding effects—or innovative ones that take liberties with linear space and time. But it doesn’t stop there. With added EQ, compression, ducking, de-essing, modulation, overdrive, resonance, and pre/post delay—H-Reverb enables you to chisel your reverb effects with unprecedented control.

The Best of Both Worlds

H-Reverb marries the flexibility, sweetness, and editability of algorithmic reverb with the real-world sound of convolution technology. The collapsed GUI lets you shape sweet reverb effects quickly with control over the reverb buildup, size, early reflections and tail, plus pre-delay with BPM sync and a Dry/Wet mix control.

Control Your Reverb’s Dynamics

But you can also go deeper: Expand the GUI, and a world of possibilities appears. Duck the reverb, so the tail comes up in the spaces between phrases. Or de-ess, to keep sibilants from hissing and spitting. Or compress, to smooth the dynamics. Even add a contemporary edge with overdrive distortion.

Add Delicious Delays

Combining delay with reverb is a pro studio “secret ingredient.” H-Reverb takes the concept further. Create pre- or post-reverb delays, choose 10 different early reflection characters, and sync pre-delay to BPM.

Shape Reverb Tone with ER Filters

H-Reverb includes a detailed built-in EQ. But it also gives you ER filters that let you shape your reverb’s tone by controlling the material of the surfaces from which your sound would be reverberating—ffecting how much high-frequency content gets absorbed before sound is reflected back.

Eclectic Extras

Shape the reverb envelope. Innovate with resonant filter sweeps. Add sophisticated filtering and split-frequency damping. Modulate amplitude and frequency. Bit-reduce for vintage lo-fi, and add analog modeling.
