What FabFilter Pro-R 2 does
The plugin simulates realistic physical spaces through three core algorithms, and a single Space knob controls decay time across them so that the reverb can move smoothly from one type of room to another. A six-band Decay Rate EQ shapes the frequencies of the tail over time, so the low and high parts of a reverb can fade at different speeds. Two new algorithms are included: Vintage, which replicates the sound character of early digital reverbs, and Plate, which replicates vintage plate reverbs.
Key features
- Three core algorithms and Space knob. Three physical room algorithms share one decay time control, the Space knob, which moves the reverb smoothly between room types.
- Six-band Decay Rate EQ. Each of six bands sets how fast a frequency range decays over time, with Decay Rate adjustable from 25% to 400% and per-band control in immersive layouts.
- Vintage and Plate algorithms. Two new styles replicate the character of early digital reverbs and of vintage plate reverbs, extending the plugin beyond realistic rooms.
- Thickness and Ducking. Thickness adds program-dependent density and saturation, while Ducking separates dry and wet signals without manual level riding.
- Impulse response import. WAV and AIFF impulse responses can be imported and then algorithmically recreated and manipulated inside the plugin.
- Immersive channel layouts. Reverbs are placed in a three-dimensional field up to 9.1.6 Dolby Atmos, with surround cross-feeding handled automatically.
