Reverb 2016 - Eventide Audio

The Reverb 2016 recreates the legendary
reverb algorithms of Eventide’s SP2016

Every aspect of the original effects has been duplicated, including every detail of the user parameters.

The Reverb 2016 is built for reverb, it’s not a multi-effects box. It was designed from the perspective that reverb is almost always used and warrants a dedicated box with an optimal user interface. 

Recreating the original reverbs is the bread and butter of the Reverb 2016, but it also features new and enhanced versions of the originals. These new algorithms have the same basic structure as the originals but with more complex early reflections, higher density, and finer control of the parameters. They represent the natural evolution of the development work that maxed out the array processing power of the SP2016.

Features

Stereo Room, Room Reverb and High Density Plate

  • Store up to 99 user presets.
  • High-performance 24-bit DSP, 24-bit analog audio I/O, digital I/O and MIDI interface
  • The Reverb 2016 UI is extremely easy-to-use featuring dedicated controls for each of the effect’s parameters.
  • The controls and display are intuitive. The UI is optimized for the studio and for live performance.

Reviews

All the charm of the original.

“I’ve used the Eventide SP-2016 on hundreds of projects since its initial release in 1983. I’ve always loved its smooth natural decay for vocals and orchestral tracks. The density of the reverb is great for drums and percussion. The new Reverb 2016 retains all the charm of the original while greatly reducing the noise floor and allowing much finer control of the reverb parameters.”

A great machine.

There is something about the way this neat box generates reverb — and more importantly, the way that its reverbs sit in a mix — that makes this a great machine.
