Curious what the worst reverb plugin is out there. Doesn't have to be freeware

Ableton's stock reverb gets my vote. And the fact that it is readily available to so many people makes it extra deadly :) I like the convolution reverb though.

Yeah the fact that it wouldn't open in any host was rather crummy. I used to have a Lexicon Omega and was excited that a reverb from the old reverb master was included....except it turned it could not be used in practice... Rather disappointing.

I guess "Omega" was a reference to its infinite predelay setting? :D
Will agree about Ableton Reverb, Live is my favorite DAW, but the Reverb, while serviceable, is uninspiring.

Wait, worst reverb pedal, or worst reverb plugin?

The worst reverb pedal has to be the Devi Ever Truly Beautiful Disaster. It just sounds like hyper-aggressive fuzz, not like reverb at all. :hihi:

For plugins, I would have to say Anechoic Room Simulator. It just doesn't have any character!

I meant plugin not pedal.

I heard that minimal system group dreamscape was pretty bad

It's funny but after countless years, that is the one reverb I come up with as awful.

Trueverb is pretty shit.

Any bad but good reverbs? Like non-organic sounding, digital, lofi, etc

I had one too. It took me a few boutique fuzz pedals to realize that I really don't need a fuzz pedal, even if they're fun to play with :D

everyone needs a+1 fuzz pedal.
