MFX DigiVerbs is a pair of digital reverb plugins from ALM / Busy Circuits, built around the Almicon and QuaidraVerb algorithms ported from the ALM MFX multi-effect module. It is available as VST3 and AU plugins.
MFX DigiVerbs brings two reverb engines from the ALM MFX hardware into your DAW. Almicon and QuaidraVerb run the same core DSP as the hardware unit, with added enhancements for extra creative control. The developer describes the algorithms as heavily influenced by early digital reverb implementations, and the interface is kept simple so you can reach classic 80s and 90s digital reverb sounds quickly.
The Era control is the main way to shape the character of the reverb. It switches between a modern ‘now’ mode and more crunchy 80s and 90s modes, so you can move from clean, contemporary tails to the grittier sound associated with early digital units.
Size, predelay, damping, diffusion and lowcut controls shape the space itself. Predelay separates the dry signal from the start of the reverb, while damping and lowcut help you keep the tail from muddying a mix.
Individual Dry and Wet controls let you balance the processed and unprocessed signal directly, and Pregain sets the input level before the reverb engine. Freeze locks the current reverb tail for as long as possible, which is useful for holding a sustained texture while you move on to other parts of a track.
Each plugin adds one extra control. QuaidraVerb includes a Gate parameter that sets a threshold for automatically gating the reverb. Almicon includes a Mod parameter that controls an LFO, adding movement to the tail.
