What are the best presets to manipulate or can someone create a preset for simulating a street?
Basically, I'd like to have reverbs to simulate a marching band parade, so things like "large avenue", "soccer field" or "narrow long street". Thanks!

it'll need to emulate some doppler effects if the sound source is supposed to move through the street, VVV AFAIK, is not conceived to emulate such cases...

What about if the players are considered "static" just simulating the surrounding environment? You have a preset of your own like "Brass in the mountains" and things like that. What would be the best tweak for "Band in the street"?

Well...at my level it's way more easy to simulate huge spaces using long pre-delay..."brass" or "piano"or any other instrument depends mainly on ER density and colors given by eq (and damping) adjustments, for "brass in the mountain" the response seemed to me more effective with bright instruments using legato playing technique (that doesn't need much density in reflexions, higher density would sound too flat and uniform for such sound sources in my experience, lower density would sound here somehow more tormented, more turbulent without the need of modulations) ...in the case of a band, it will be a whole orchestra that likely includes at the same time brass, woodwind,double bass, piano and drums...a complex sound source : way more difficult to find an ER and equalization profile that might rehearse it specifically

for some "in the street" alike presets it would be appropriate to emulate two walls in parallel in one direction and an open space in the other perpendicularly, I assume that i should need the implementation of a dedicated algorithm in the case of VVV, and it likely will have a fixed position of the listener that can't be modified, a reverb unit like quikquak rayspace would be (theorically) way more appropriate for such tweaking

...also, considering all positions can stay as you said static, a dedicated IR could do a decent job for such small reflecting environment IMHO ?

Hi everybody,
did anybody ever create a patch that simulates the Lyndhurst Hall in London?

Would be great for matching dry instruments with Spitfire Audio samples etc.
At the moment i use a combination of Altiverb (Todd AO) and Vintage Verb (to add more tail and diffuse reflections this room seems to have) which works ok as long as they play along together. But A/B comparison (e.g. when an instrument plays a solo) reveals that it´s not quite the same room.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions or insight!

Just a though: maybe the Lyndhurst would be something for Valhalla Room? I do own that plugin as well, so a combination of these two (or VRoom alone) would also be interesting.

I was just testing the demo version of the Plate plugin in the Lexicon PCMNative Reverb bundle and this is a VVV preset inspired by one of the "LArge Plate" presets in the PCM:

<ValhallaVintageVerb pluginVersion="1.5.0" presetName="IW_PCM Large Plate_1" Mix="0.66600000858306885" PreDelay="0.18547844886779785" Decay="0.34474748373031616" Size="0.5" Attack="0.69999998807907104" BassMult="0.42100000381469727" BassXover="0.26800000667572021" HighShelf="0" HighFreq="0.59053885936737061" EarlyDiffusion="1" LateDiffusion="1" ModRate="0.092000000178813934" ModDepth="0.15600000321865082" HighCut="1" LowCut="0" ColorMode="1" ReverbMode="0.083333335816860199"/>

Here are 6 VVV presets inspired by presets of the Lexicon PCM Vintage Plate plugin:

Dry/Wet in all presets is set to 66.6%. I did not apply LowCut and HighCut to keep this at a more general setting and also to keep a more bright sound. Of course you could change/adjust is if you like. Maybe not 100% authentic but IMO sounds great as it is.

UPDATE:
Slightly updated the presets updated posted above (mostly the MOD section).

This is my first approach to emulate a real Plate (inspired by e.g. EMT 140) in VVV (using the "Dark Plate" mode):

<ValhallaVintageVerb pluginVersion="1.5.0" presetName="IW_Real Plate 1" Mix="0.66600000858306885" PreDelay="0.20418804883956909" Decay="0.3619999885559082" Size="0.64800000190734863" Attack="0.20399999618530273" BassMult="0.62199997901916504" BassXover="0.42691817879676819" HighShelf="0" HighFreq="0.76499998569488525" EarlyDiffusion="1" LateDiffusion="1" ModRate="0.090909093618392944" ModDepth="0.24799999594688416" HighCut="0.94139945507049561" LowCut="0" ColorMode="0.66666668653488159" ReverbMode="0.4583333432674408"/>

Dry/Wet again at 66.6% to keep a bit of the Dry sound.

For a brighter sound you could switch the COLOR mode to "NOW" like in this preset:

<ValhallaVintageVerb pluginVersion="1.5.0" presetName="IW_Real Plate 1 bright" Mix="0.66600000858306885" PreDelay="0.20418804883956909" Decay="0.3619999885559082" Size="0.64800000190734863" Attack="0.20399999618530273" BassMult="0.62199997901916504" BassXover="0.42691817879676819" HighShelf="0" HighFreq="0.76499998569488525" EarlyDiffusion="1" LateDiffusion="1" ModRate="0.090909093618392944" ModDepth="0.24799999594688416" HighCut="0.94139945507049561" LowCut="0" ColorMode="1" ReverbMode="0.4583333432674408"/>

Question to Sean:
This copy-and-pasting of presets is really nice, but could the "save as..." dialog in VVV default to the pasted preset name please?
ATM it defaults to empty which makes saving needlessly tedious if you go through longer lists of posted presets.

Thanks a lot!

And thanks to all posters of presets as well!

Cheers,

Tom

P.S. I'm on Windows 8.1 if that makes a difference.
