FabFilter not only has the Best UI in the market to their astonishing plugins - they also have the best tutorials for it. Great Job, Dan!

[@Jam_Bon]

if I see a new Fabfilter plugin with Dan doing a video on it, its as good as bought before pressing play lol

[@nolanroberts2710]

Best UI is very very much subjective on that one of my friend. It's good for EQ and limiting and stuff but the fact that they use that interface for everything is kind of annoying and I hate their synthesizer. In the ways of user interface I actually really really appreciate what minimal audio has been doing they are modern and I'm taking into account all the good interfaces that companies have made and kind of amalgamated them into one

[@isaacjohnklein]

By a landslide!!

[@anoyingnomad]

The narrator carries them heavenly!

[@DanielEisenschink]

@@nolanroberts2710 I actually agree on that - let´s say, best UI for engineering plugins & FX :D I really don´t like the synth much but the UI works so well for EQ, Comp, Multiband, etc.

[@tedregklis]

When making a tutorial becomes an art form. Bravo Dan!

[@dominik4ward]

it really gives me goosebumps and i know they want to have their customers right there, it's amazing!

[@piyushkhanna9554]

YEAH! we know how much we wait for his tutorials

[@VersatBeats]

It gives me David Attenborough, Animal Documentary vibes lol

[@13111y]

@@VersatBeats I know what you mean... Calm and confident because he genuinely knows his onions. Not all over-excitedly fake.

[@Hypagon]

FabFilter and Dan Worrall never cease to amaze me. New features and tutorials I could never have dreamed of. The Auto Gate and Ducking function are a game changer on their own, let alone the new presets and new added options. Thank you for creating the best plugins on the market!

[@_leivo]

in this case they are just catching up with other software to be honest, but they know how to make up for it!

[@shaft9000]

Or look at it another way: all this 'innovation and detail'... just to fake a room. You can imagine how "the game" has changed, but in fact the job never changes - not since the lowliest spring.

[@andyrudolph7180]

When he mentioned enhanced multichannel support I started cheering. When he discussed importing IRs, I went wild with excitement. By the time he was midway through talking about modulation types, I had already upgraded. 😂

[@vandpiben]

This update combines all the excessive plugins you often use to process reverbs, amazing! Gate, side-chain compression, EQ pre and post, chorus and precision control of all of these.

[@producermathew]

Holy SHIT - this is amazing. So not only do you load the IR's but Pro R 2 interpretates it too! The problem with IR's is that they feel static and not three dimensional like algorithmic reverbs, but they tend to sound better. So if we can effectively use this feature to 're-create' our favourite impulse responses, then this is a MASSIVE game changer. Defo upgrading. Pro R was awesome, but feel like v2 solves all of the problems I had with it!

[@PlottingTheDownfall]

Just tested the IR import with some IRs I have captured for nice sounding studio rooms - wood, stone, controlled, etc - and I was impressed, and loved that I could tweak things to get the perfect sound for a mix.

[@ManzilBikramKC]

Dan is back. Awesome!!

[@verygood7804]

“Hello, and welcome” always gets me

[@itsnopez]

I feel like my production game improves every time I watch a DW video. The godfather of audio tutorials.

[@DrGlu]

Never get bored watching Fabfilter's Introduction done by Dan Worrall, when you get excited about new VST and pure knowledge at the same time

[@truecuckoo]

Wow! My go-to reverb of choice pushing ahead. Sounds beautiful!

[@SoundsOfRevolution]

Wow! So impressive. Guys, you raised the bar again! Dan did again an amazing job, too. What a great tutorial! Cheers, Oli / Sounds of Revolution

[@Tyrell_Corp2019]

We all just went to Fablfilter church and had a religious experience once again with Dan at the pulpit.

[@redblock1382]

😭🙏

[@joeysaturday3420]

SIMPING is Pathetic

[@Pessoamusical]

"Did someone tell you never to add reverb to the bass?" - behold, suddenly the bass breathes on the trail. Very good, Dan!

[@Oscar-rw8kt]

Why are you guys so good at doing tutorials? I'd pay for a production course by the guy on this video. Big ups Mr. Fabfilter

[@vidarhjal]

This is him and he has his own channel @DanWorrall

[@draztiqmeshaz6226]

Absolutely gorgeous my guy. I usually have to watch these at least twice. Once to just learn and enjoy, and the next to try to imagine your process in seamlessly tying together the script with the (usually) uninterrupted musical flow AND all the screen caps. Any way you slice it, it takes real skill. Thanks for putting in the rehearsals, because every show is fabulous

[@ignazachenbach5406]

Dan's voice alone makes me want this plugin, I swear.

[@SylvainDuford]

Dan Worrall is the god of plugin demo-tutorials. Makes me want to buy them just to play with them.

[@DominikHolenstein]

UVI Falcon 3 last week, FabFilter Pro-R 2 today, we are living in an amazing (and expensive) time. Excellent tutorial, Dan, thank you!

[@fcmas]

Cubase 13 today too

[@chrisrussell4408]

Dan Worrall just inspires creativity. I bought Pro-R 2 right after watching this.

[@pentalogue_trialogue]

Finally, a video introduction to the new wonderful plugin has been released! Thank you for working and making high-quality videos on reviews of your cool plugins! In fact, plugins from FabFilter have become the most used ones for me!

[@samprock]

Dan delivers again answering what you were looking for. In a style. I was waiting for this update indeed, looking around for other reverbs too often. Thanks FabFilter for advancements and Dan for inspiring soundtrack to it!

[@Maradnus]

this is EXACTLY how a reverb should function! My goodness.. this is really gamechanging. Well done Fabfilter!!!

[@iammadeofsound]

Thank you for creating fantastic tools! Pro-R has always been one of my main go to reverbs. The new features are incredible... supporting you by upgrading immediately!

[@qasderfful]

Hi Dan! Glad to hear your voice, take care!

[@misaanofficial]

The way you talk with the background music on, I feel I am watching a documentary with an exciting scene. Great video and tutorial, thank you!

[@moilimyacoub4580]

An abolsute amazing Reverb and now even better. And having Dan Worrall walk throuh is simply A Masterpiece

[@troywilliams8593]

I’m having a shit day, so I tuned in here to try and learn something to give myself a small win. Hearing your soothing voice with all these amazing lush sounds really helped! I’m quite grateful for your tutorials, and that I have this amazing plugin 🙌 Bravo Fabfilter and Dan!

[@AthensGTI]

Fantastic update! I started noodlng around with it today on a choral project that I am in the middle of mixing. 100% worth the upgrade. Fantastic work, FabFilter!

[@Mixyap]

I purchase everything that Dan Worrall introduce.

[@SG-4u]

Thanks FabFiler, for the plugin, sure, but also for getting Dan Worrall!

[@Seafox0011]

We are spoilt and fortunate to have such an outstanding delight of a reverb plugin available. Another great demo by Mr Worrall the maestro!

[@alrecks619]

Amazing work yet again by you guys! That being said, i hope all is good for Dan because haven't hearing from him in a while.

[@burkek1960]

Pretty sure this is the best intro/demo video for any product by any company. Well done!

[@andrewrichardsuk]

Dan, i love your delivery, its a pleasure to listen to you. With such experience and knowledge to hand, i feel safe and supported to have purchased the latest total bundle for live 12 ❤️👍

[@C_F_M]

Just got the FX bundle and watched your introductions for each plugin, the greatest immediate benefit to me that I noticed is how easy they all are to understand once you get a grasp of one of them. Awesome stuff

[@mrhay]

No other company offers your a free short 'lecture' explaining and demo'ing their new than FabFilter & Dan. Well done again and long may you continue. Con Amor. Paz.

[@andriskissproducer]

Good job Fabfilter! Anyone would wanna buy this just for hearing Dan's calming voice 😂 Great video!

[@brionreid7316]

Loved hearing Dan's voice... upgraded before the video ended

[@uncle-ed]

Thank you Dan. Your walkthroughs are on another level. I bought Pro-R 2 based on this one.

[@joezazasin7]

Absolutely luv it! 🔥 You guys are the absolute frontier of cutting edge highest quality plugins.

[@No.0.o.0]

Great to hear Dan again.

[@scottbaron]

Thanks to both FabFilter and Dan. I've just bought the upgrade from Pro-R 1

[@sssyntax]

Your music's amazing and your tutorials are an inspiring art form of themselves.

[@IconOfSin]

My favourite reverb plugin finally getting the update it deserves. Take my money!

[@LuisAbarcaCarvajal]

I hope Dan is doing ok is good to hear your voice again

[@mediapoduk]

Once again, features I didn't know I needed that I now can't live without!

[@thevi_olin]

double treat! A new plugin, but I'm just as happy to hear Dan's voice and quality delivery of this awesome technology. Thanks Fabfilter, Thanks Dan! Now where is my credit card?

[@philburns5656]

I just get that email ... and Dan the man has already done out his official FabFilter review. Perfect!

[@TR-707]

great video and great visualizer. It not only will be a great addition to artists' studios but also educate those who want to make their own reverbs

[@yusaki_ch]

best writing for a reverb demo I’ve seen

[@1901Factory]

FabFilter and Dan Worrall = impressive! Really great update. Thank you

[@kerwyncollier2408]

Love Dan on tutorials. Nice reverb!

[@dismal7124]

This is so cool. Pro-R has been my go-to reverb, and this just looks so stacked. Very happy :)

[@assistantassistant5516]

Amazing. Used it all day. The IR import is so cool and such a great starting point for scoring stages

[@vanjazz2842]

Stellar stuff as always from both Dan "Attenborough of sound design" Worral and Fabilter ❤‍🔥 The ReaVerb surprise was definitely a surprise but also cool and reaffirming to me personally as a Reaper user. I noticed Dan uses Reaper in previous tutorials some years ago as well, and this solidified my choice of DAW as a rookie when being overwhelmed by the plethora of options for music software out there these days. Fabfilter makes creating sounds a much more fun and enjoyable experience.

[@ComposerMichaelDow]

Wow. Great video and what an insane reverb plugin. So good

[@AironExTv]

Nice improvements. I can see my workflow speeding up considerably when setting up spaces for my dialogue mixes. Very nice. Will give this a try.

[@Subtronik]

Wow… this sounds really great. Excellent work FabFilter!

[@Alon21Ashkenazi]

What an amazing reverb! Brilliant!

[@Neuri]

This video is actually unbelievably brilliant ❤

[@cali3168]

I hear Dans voice and immediately hit 'Like'

[@cali3168]

cuz I know it's gonna be good.

[@kiverismusic]

Loving it so far! Feels like the CPU load is much lower than with Pro-R 1, which became fairly noticeable with 10+ instances running. Was really a shame as I absolutely loved how much control v1 had. Has me really excited to test v2 out more! Also, I bought the total bundle about a month ago, and was given a free upgrade to Pro-R 2 due to a grace period. The people at Fab Filter are just great!

[@TheirIAre]

So is the cpu load indeed improved?

[@kiverismusic]

​@@TheirIAre My short answer is yes! The long one is yes, but it kinda depends. It depends on the reverb style you use. The other parameters (including the EQ) don't affect performance enough for me to notice. The modern style seems to be the most intensive (a little more so than v1 actually), but the vintage&plate are totally reasonable. Pro-R 2 has tipped the scales for me overall! I can dial in an exact 'verb incredibly quickly, without my DAW becoming unusable with a dozen+ instances running. Plus - the decay time EQ opens the door to sooo many unique and personalized sounds that I can't get any other way.

[@StoriesOfSolitude]

Your plugins always go above and beyond in both versatility and visual appeal. This sounds beautiful and I can't wait to try it. Love the new features. Does it have shimmer as well?

[@Punk_Mayhem]

Sensei Dan, in heaven and earth, is the Truly honored One! period.❤❤❤❤

[@devinwright3276]

Wow amazing update. I was not expecting this level of detail

[@omniburn]

dan & fabfilter combo reeks of high quality

[@weyamusic]

God damnit, 2 minutes in and I'm sold

[@JoshWiniberg]

Love your tutorials Dan!

[@kirkdenson]

Bravo! Much improvement of an already awesome plugin!

[@MrKKmusic]

Extraordinary - I bought it and it didn’t disappoint!

[@onemic-theminimalist]

This is a real advancement in reverb - Thanks FabFilter.

[@vicneve1169]

Yep! PRO-R2 is now officially the best reverb plugin in my arsenal. And Ive got a lot of reverb plugins😋 The Moog SubSequent 37 with PRO-R2 is a dream come true!

[@tomryan6461]

Superb, as ever! Thanks Dan. Good health to you.

[@sakrmomo]

Welcome back Dan

[@deejayjimakos]

As always Good to hear you DAN

[@billB101]

Bought this afternoon, already throwing it into productions. Very nice.

[@Hermiel]

I was just starting to pine for those dulcet Worrall tones and those wonky Worrall tunes. What a treat. The new plugin is nice, too.

[@chrisrodenmusic]

What a demo this is! Great work.

[@picksalot1]

This is how to demo a product so it's meaningful. Great job!

[@calebtorres7111]

Where did the time go??? It’s really been 6 years since the first Pro R was released?? I honestly can’t believe that. Looking forward to this!

[@stevenchen7721]

I love Dan's video. thank you Sir

[@ParadNorthProd]

Exceptionally well done video.

[@elias_kohli]

Dan❤ what a nice intruduction.

[@reactmagic2348]

Such good plugin design. Simple and powerful. Sounds awesome, can make a wide variety of sounds. High floor and high ceiling. Awesome!

[@P4TCH5S]

I dunno why the heck I would buy more reverb, but ure little professional video here got me to just buy the upgrade! DANGIT!

[@patircksalter]

This video literally sold me on buying the plugin. Holy crap this is mind blowingly awesome. WELL. FUCKING. DONE.

[@WLaChitarra]

good job and good come back in town guys!

[@chillingFriend]

I'd watch and possibly by anything that is introduced by Dan!

[@ghfjfghjasdfasdf]

Reeeeeally hoping you guys do something for that bundle in the coming weeks… I need them for my new build.

[@djse]

Great update, although the decay time curve could use another color so it's easier to not confuse it with the side EQ curve :)

[@TraxtasyMedia]

Dan just nailed it again :D

[@joeysaturday3420]

Simping is Pathetic you need help

[@russellszabadosaka5-pindin849]

Dan hit it out of the park again! (I wish I knew a Cricket reference for you)

[@skireme]

Fab Filter are essential plugins for a modern production. Incredibly, they keep making them better,

[@faithed]

Instant buy for me! Love FabFilters plugins

[@nyanko2077]

Ah Dan is back! My wallet is ready! Lovely flanger like sound for the bass at the end. I will try that for sure. Thanks Dan.

[@theswedishmusicstudio]

Upgraded immediately! A great reverb getting even greatererererererererer.

[@petersvan7880]

Impressive tutorial and plugin!

[@hungri-yeti1885]

just purchased my upgrade, looking forward to digging into this; looks REALLY good, I'll be able to get rid of some other plugins.

[@Bronwyn031]

The ONLY review I've been waiting for! Here I go...
