Which reverb plugin is your favorite? Waves, Fabfilter, or Lexicon...

I have all the Eventide verbs and use them all the time. I also use Valhalla Room/Vintage/Supermassive, Tsar-1, Pro R, PSP 2445,Waves Plates/Chambers/H-Verb, Exponential PhoenixVerb/Excalibur, IK Multimedia TR5, SSL X-Verb and Soundtoys Little Plate...and a few thousand more.

My favourite? Eventide.

I’m a Valhalla tart, so either vintage or plate for me. I tend to use plate on vocals or quite rich instruments/ sounds and the vintage on practically anything else. I’m not a huge reverb fan though and use it extremely sparingly!

Irritatingly I’ve completely lost access to my liquid sonics reverberate 2 due to some Ilok issue. Rather than buy something else can I use the impulses from that and use my reaverb that comes with reaper. Anyone had any experience of doing this?

Should be able to, as long as they're compatible file formats.

I bought the IK Sunset Sound reverb in the sale they had. I paid £31 with the jam points and am really enjoying this reverb. I tried the demo first and liked the character and sound I was hearing.
Sunset Sound reverb has replaced Kush Goldplate on a jazz project I’m currently working and I prefer it to my go to reverbs on some earlier projects I’ve already finished.

Second on the Sunset Sound Studio from IK. I too tend to the 'less is more' approach for reverb; current technique is to add it last on my 2-bus just for a little space (saw Andrew Scheps do this on his 2-bus). UA's Ocean Way Studios (in reverb, not re-mic mode! And very gentle, only 12% wet) also works here. Even Baby Audio's recent "Spaced Out" using one of their simple reverb modes, no timed delays, worked.

So many reverbs so little time, thanks for those recommendations, I’ll look into them all. First off I’ll see how I go with the reaper one. Especially with vocals I’m never quite sure if what I’m hearing and liking on records is reverb or delay.
