01Overview

ReverbMod is a reverb effect built around ducking. Instead of routing a signal to a compressor and back to a reverb send bus, the plugin handles the ducking internally, so the reverb tail can get out of the way of a vocal or pump in time with a kick drum. The developer describes it as a way to add rhythmic movement, punch and excitement to reverb tails. It is available in VST3, VST2, AU and AAX formats for Windows and macOS.

Ducking and Pumping Reverb Tails

The core feature of ReverbMod is its built-in ducking. The reverb can be sidechained to a source so the tail reacts to that source's level. Use this to duck the reverb away from a vocal so the words stay clear, or to sidechain the tails on a lead synth.

For dance music, the plugin can create tempo-synced pumping reverbs that move with the kick drum. This adds rhythmic movement to the reverb rather than leaving it as a static wash.

Because the ducking is built in, you do not need a separate compressor or a bus setup to get these effects.

Routing and Use in Mixes

ReverbMod is designed to simplify routing. Normally, achieving a ducked reverb means sending a signal to a compressor, then sending that result to a reverb send bus. ReverbMod combines these steps into one plugin, which keeps a mix session tidier.

The developer positions the plugin for producers who want clean, controlled reverbs as well as more creative, moving ones. It can be used on vocals, synths or any other audio source, so it fits both mixing and sound design tasks.

Questions, answered

What formats does ReverbMod support?

ReverbMod is available in VST3, VST2, AU and AAX formats. It is a 64-bit plugin for Windows and macOS.

Does ReverbMod work with Pro Tools?

ReverbMod does not include AAX support in the system requirements, which list it as working in most major DAWs excluding Pro Tools. Check the developer's current compatibility details before buying.

What do I need to run ReverbMod?

On Windows, you need Windows 7, 8, 10 or later, 4 GB RAM and 2 GB free space on the system drive. On macOS, you need OS X 10.9.5 Mavericks or later, 4 GB RAM and 2 GB free space, and the plugin is listed as ready for macOS Catalina and Big Sur with native Apple Silicon support.

What is ducking in ReverbMod?

Ducking lowers the reverb level when a sidechained source is active, so the reverb does not mask that source. The developer says ReverbMod has this built in, so you do not need a separate compressor.
