Baby Audio Crystalline Algorithmic Reverb Plug-in Reviews
Baby Audio's Crystalline plug-in packs six decades of algorithmic reverb research and design into easy-to-use software for your favorite DAW. Today's technology and hardware make it effortless to tap into the awesome might of algorithmic reverb, with Crystalline's quartet of tweakable sections channeling creative echoes of all kinds. Reflections includes Size, Sparkle, and Width controls, letting you experiment with room size, brightness, and stereo image width, respectively. Sweetwater's studio experts appreciate Crystalline's Clean-up section, with Damping to remove unwanted frequencies, a highpass filter in the form of Sides, and Gate to engage an '80s-inspired gated reverb. Depth gives your sound some extra character, with Resolution toggling between "basic" and "complex" algorithms, Modulation adding pitch variations for a bigger sound, and Shimmer slowing the high frequencies in the reverb tails for an "angelic" effect. Rounding out the sections is Shape, which focuses more on EQ with a Tone control that shifts between brighter and darker sounds; Smoothing, which applies EQ curves to common problem areas; and Transients, which shifts the emphasis to either the attack or sustain. To top it off, Crystalline lets you sync your reverb's start and decay times to your song's tempo! Harness the power and potential of state-of-the-art algorithmic reverb software with Baby Audio's Crystalline plug-in.

Best reverb
Fantastic sounds. Fun to use.
A really nice and inspiring Reverb
This is a really useful plugin. I use it a lot for a variety of different things - especially when a 'standard' plugin won't provide enough character. This one can be dialed in to have character in spades. It sounds great and is very unique!
My only gripe is that I genuinely don't care about these 'signature' artist presets and the majority of the presets are exactly that. Who are these people? I don't care one bit. I'd strongly prefer to have a better selection of presets (which we all are going to use as a starting point then modify) rather than some obscurely named preset from someone I've never heard of.
Ultimately a great reverb and I'm looking forward to looking into other plugins from this company.
