What Sunset Sound Studio Reverb II does
The plugin is presented as a definitive recreation of the live rooms at Sunset Sound, and the developer says it builds on its Volumetric Response Modeling (VRM) technology. Version II moves beyond static room responses by adding discrete live room positioning, which the developer describes as up to 27 positions with true 3D source placement, using fully sampled live room positioning.
Two fully independent reverb engines run in parallel, so a session can combine live rooms, chambers, iso booths and EMT plates, or layer physical spaces and hardware reverbs and blend several room perspectives. Advanced size control reshapes the space rather than simply adjusting decay: it scales the impulse response length from 0% to 200% while preserving the tonal fingerprint of the room, which lets a user tighten or enlarge a room without losing its early reflection structure.
Key features
- Discrete live room positioning. Version II adds fully sampled live room positioning with up to 27 discrete source positions in true 3D, so the source placement inside each room can be set directly.
- Dual-engine architecture. Two fully independent reverb engines run in parallel, so each can be set to a different room, chamber, iso booth or EMT plate.
- Layered room perspectives. Physical spaces and hardware reverbs can be layered and blended to combine multiple room perspectives.
- Advanced size control. Size scales the impulse response length from 0% to 200% while keeping the tonal fingerprint, and it is not a simple decay adjustment.
Use cases
- Tightening or enlarging a room. The size control can tighten or enlarge a room while keeping its early reflections, which is the task the developer describes for the size control.
- Combining room perspectives. Two engines and layered hardware reverbs can blend several room perspectives in the same session.
Compatibility
The plugin ships as VST3, AU and AAX for Windows 10 and macOS in 64-bit builds, with native support for Apple Silicon processors listed, a minimum of 8 GB RAM and 1 GB of disk space.
Who it is for
The plugin suits mix engineers and sound designers who want live room and studio reverb tones, and who need to place sources in three dimensions and shape room size without changing tone.
