To me, all convos sound different even with the same IR's. Not sure if it's placebo but ones like the hofa seem rich and large and sit well. I hate working with reflektor because of the GR interface. I'll have to load reverberate and check with those impulses, but again, I felt like the interface didn't gel with me.Echoes in the Attic wrote:If you like the Ableton M4L convolution reverb, but are concerned about instability, why not just load the IRs that come with it into reverberate or reflektor since you have those? Quality of the sound should be mainly the IRs, though the reverb may have very different sound sculpting features.hibidy wrote: UPDATE: for some reason, convolution pro is working now in live. This changes everything if that continues. Still, the empty room 250 and the hofa were the two I've tried that blew me away. Nothing against any of the others, but I already have the NI series and they are as good if not better IMHO than many tried.
By the way, I tried the Hofa, amazingly low cpu on that, I guess comparable to using only the reverb in one convolution engine in reverberate. But it's cool that it can stretch the samples many hundreds of percent, unlike many which can only change decay by +/- 50 or 100.
The great thing about the pro convo for live is it's a great interface. Clean, simple and functional (well, other than the crashing) I didn't know there was a "pro" version when I started this thread with such nice impulses organized so well.
