01Overview

ADverb2 is Audio Damage's update of its classic ADverb, which was originally named Reverence. The developer kept the DSP code from the original and expanded the maximum decay time, so the reverb can run much longer tails than before. The plugin focuses on a straightforward control set: pre-delay, time and size, followed by a filtering section for shaping the reverb tail. It is available for Windows, macOS and Linux.

Sound and Controls

ADverb2 is built around a digital plate reverb character. The core controls are pre-delay, time and size, which set the early space, the decay length and the perceived room size. An extensive filtering section lets you shape the reverb tail, so you can tame or color the decay without adding a separate EQ.

The interface follows a logical vintage-style layout. It is vector-based, so the window can be resized without losing clarity.

Presets, Compatibility and Performance

ADverb2 includes an XML-based, cross-platform preset manager that supports copy and paste between instances. Audio Damage notes that presets can also move between the iOS version and the desktop version using Handoff.

The developer describes the reverb algorithm as optimized for low CPU load. The plugin is 64-bit only, and it will not run on 32-bit systems. On Mac it requires macOS 10.12 Sierra or newer, with M1 Apple Silicon supported. On Windows it requires Windows 8.1 or newer, and on Linux Ubuntu 18 or newer.
