Vocal Plugin Reverb Shootout - Valhalla vs. Slate Digital vs. Waves vs Soundtoys

[@john_mclucas]

After you listen, tell me which were YOUR favorites and why! If you want MORE no-nonsense shootouts, let me know by sharing the video and tagging me! I'd love to make this a series if people dig it :)

[@Itsallawesome]

Valhalla and Little Plate were my fav

[@BeatWeezy]

Verbsuite and Valhalla

[@KordTaylor]

Love to hear this same shootout between the “suites” like NÍ and Arturia verbs. I have started using Arturia a fair bit.

[@edgeletdie]

Valhalla is just beautiful no matter what, even tho I agree with you for the VSC on your vocals, it was the best. I would have been curious to hear the Fabfilter Pro-R on these vocals

[@john_mclucas]

Edge I’ll be super honest, I have ProR butttttt their presets wouldnt link up so I couldn’t do a “medium hall” as a starting point. I think I fucked up something on transfer to my new rig, but i didn’t have time to fix as I set up to film. I intentionally wanted them to all be based off vocal presets soco didn’t craft it by hand on one voice and have bias.

[@TommyMerry]

Intentionally listening on my macbook speakers: It was between VerbSuite Classics, and RC 24 , with RC 24 in the lead. I'll have to try the demo and see how it sound on my tracks. Thanks, John

[@john_mclucas]

dope!

[@jonjonsilly]

Dude that was a super fun watch! For the Halls, I definitely thought Valhalla sounded the best each time and didn't like the Slate one, sounded muddy or too low passed for me. I personally couldn't discern much of a difference between the other 3, I'd have to spend much more time critically listening!

[@john_mclucas]

Hell yea man I’m glad you enjoyed it, we can discuss the tones of each reverb over sushi today haha

[@forrestwoodz1755]

Thank you so much

[@goactivemedia]

I wish you would have Added in a Eventide plug as I find it to offer a lot mote then Valhalla.

[@john_mclucas]

Damn. Didn’t have that on hand!

[@KordTaylor]

I really loved your premise on this Re: how is it without tweaking. I did like the 24 but it was diff for the fem voc.

[@john_mclucas]

😌😌😌 lol could you imagine, is this a family affair?

[@omidfouladi7999]

Valhalla is much better ❤

[@alan-nf4qx]

Hi - plate or hall reverb for a synth in general?

[@john_mclucas]

tbh mad impossible question but eh. if i HAD to say one, probably hall?

[@thecllctive6011]

Waves sounds to good

[@john_mclucas]

Wow that’s wild! I felt the opposite personally, it sounds very flangey , like there’s lots of early reflection and little reverb but hey. That’s the beauty of it!

[@KordTaylor]

Yeah Little Plate seems dampened.

[@ElyWaves.]

Vahalla just great. Agreed Rverb was just not it. I really enjoyed little plate as well. I like the presence it brought. Definitely top 3 for me on all of them

[@john_mclucas]

absolutely iconic plugin

[@thecllctive6011]
