Audiority’s XenoVerb consolidates a wide variety of reverb types into a single plugin, eliminating the need to purchase multiple specialized reverbs. The algorithm selection includes standard types like plate, hall, and room, alongside more exotic options like gated (inspired by 80s drum production), reverse (for backward-sounding swells), and shimmer (with adjustable pitch shift intervals). Each algorithm reveals its own set of parameters when selected, ensuring that only relevant controls are visible.
The plugin runs on iPhone and iPad as an AUv3 with standalone support, maintaining consistent algorithm quality across both platforms. Within hosts like AUM or Logic Pro iPad, users can automate algorithm switching for dramatic changes between sections of a track. The preset system stores algorithm-specific parameters, allowing users to build libraries of variations on each reverb type.
Some algorithms sound noticeably thinner than dedicated plugins from other developers, particularly the plate and hall modes. Shimmer algorithm’s pitch shifters introduce slight latency that can cause phasing issues when mixed with dry signals.
- 13 reverb algorithms including standard and experimental types
