![]() bus and place Altiverb 7 into the bus.Ģ) Depending on the nature of the piano work, and my general mood, I will select from a plate IR (L480), or a studio IR (e.g., Todd AO) or use the Sydney Opera House IR, and then slowly increase the bus volume from negative infinity to a level that I can distinctly recognize the Altiverb effect - then. I happen to augment Pianoteq's convolution reverb with Altiverb in a somewhat unusual way.Īlthough I generally perform live, for mastering purposes, I like to import Pianoteq's audio into Apple Logic Pro X (Version 10.4), and go to work on the audio as follows:ġ) Working on the Pianoteq-rendered AUDIO track, I create an aux. ![]() In the end you'll want to experiment to taste as these things can be quite subjective. You probably are looking for a closer mic placement anyway, so that might not be an issue for you. It seems to now disregard mic placement at least to some extent. For my own purposes with Pianoteq I now use the built-in reverb exclusively because when you turn it off (to use a third-party reverb) the mic placement behavior is different than how it used to be in earlier versions. I also would prefer its decay to be a little smoother (less wobbly), but that's more a matter of taste. If you make the reverb too heavy it will show a little bit of artificiality. It's not quite perfect, but I'm generally satisfied with it. Pianoteq's new built-in reverb is definitely much improved. This article provides instructions to give you much better realism: I went with Valhalla Room, but it needs to be tweaked in order to be optimised. I was ready to go with PhoenixVerb but their terms are a little strange and they make you jump through some unreasonable piracy hoops which in the end gave me cold feet (especially for the price). Speakerphone will add dial tones, operators and static, and you can select from gigabytes of ambiences on either the caller or receiver’s end.Ĥ00 speaker impulse responses, 23 microphones, 106 'Covers' (from blankets to car trunks), 53 Altiverb rooms and outdoor spaces, 5 gigabyte of ambiences and sound FX, and 12 DSP modules from Leslie to GSM compression, conveniently presented to you in well over 500 presets.To my ears PhoenixVerb is probably the best overall, followed by Valhalla Room, followed closely by Altiverb. Speakerphone 2 gives you authentic speakers of any size together with their natural environments.Ī bad GSM connection on a busy sidewalk, a bullhorn with feedback and a helicopter overhead, or a 1952 rockabilly guitar amp in a recording studio live room: The Speakerphone audio plug-in gives you authentic speakers of any size together with their natural environments.Īll the walkie-talkies, distant transistor radios, upstairs TV sets, bullhorns and cell phones you’ll ever need. Speakerphone 2, powered by Altiverb, combines a wealth of effects including a convolution engine that uses actual samples of hundreds of original speakers, a radio receiver tuning dial, record player scratch and static generator, GSM cell phone data compression, distortion, tremolo, delay, a variety of EQ and dynamics, bit crushing, sample rate reduction, a full blown convolution reverb, and a library of samples to combine into entire environments.
