Nimbus (AU, VST, VST3, AAX) is the latest stereo algorithmic reverb from Exponential Audio. It builds on (though doesn’t replace) PhoenixVerb ( 190, 9/10), pursuing the same remit of a natural, unobtrusive-sounding reverb. Nimbus looks very similar to PhoenixVerb, though it’s larger and more feature-rich. It’s also fully compatible with existing PV presets, and even includes its full preset bank.
Much like PhoenixVerb, Nimbus includes subpages handling Attack stage, Early reflections and reverb Tail, and its adjustable parameters range from Reverb Type, Size, Time and Diffusion, to tail Damping, reverb Width, Low/Mid Balance and Crossover. Nevertheless, Nimbus is fundamentally more complex. First up, there’s one new algorithm, making four Reverb Types in total (Plate 1, Plate 2, Chamber and Hall).
Next up, there are more adjustable parameters, the most obvious…
