Re: Free Plug ins
A few amazing free reverbs from Airwindows:
CreamCoat - general-purpose reverb that sounds very smooth even at extremely short tail lengths. It has a bunch of different reverb models (the "Select" slider, towards the right they tend to get bigger). "Regen" controls the tail length. Want a dirty digital retro sounding version of this (when using "Derez")? Check out CrunchCoat.
Galactic3 - a potentially huge reverb, that you can freeze and unfreeze by automating the "Replace" parameter. "Bigness" controls the tail length. I love how this sounds, even down to like 0.25 Bigness, where it turns into a more hall-y reverb. This includes a stereo vibrato feature (also available as a separate plugin "GalacticVibe"; all Airwindows plugins are free!), a common trick in huge reverbs to give them more movement.
kCathedral3 - a cathedral-style reverb that sounds extremely smooth. Here, the reverb size/density is controlled mostly using "Regen".
kPlate140 and kPlate240 - a flashier (140) and a more subtle (240) plate-style reverb.
All of these have a "Derez" slider. If you pull it down, the reverb gets darker. It's like a lowpass but works quite differently. In the demo videos he often showcases this at 100% wet which kind of cheapens the overall impression, but I like how it sounds in context. Remember to never do mixing on individual sounds, always do it on the full mix!
Chris has a lot more reverb plugins (and other plugins), but these are, I think, his best reverbs.
Bonus: kCosmos, an infinite reverb (at maximum Regen; it can also be tweaked into a "normally big" reverb). The cool thing about kCosmos is that quiet sounds will build up and louder sounds won't, so the reverb always tends towards roughly the same sort of loudness. This makes for a very spacey never-ending reverb that will not blow up in your face. A fun side feature is that if you automate Derez, you can repitch what's already in the reverb without affecting new things coming in (except it still always does the darkening as in the other plugins).
The difference between Derez and Filter for darkening is that Derez affects the whole reverb, whereas Filter gradually decays the highs, so initially things will be brighter in the reverb and that will gradually disappear.
