Great video! Like you I really liked the simplicity of the plug in and how quickly it sounds great and actually useable. By the way congratulations on your EMT and having enough room for it!! Always great videos!!
I have been using this for a few days mainly on vocals at the moment and I was impressed with how quick it was to create a custom reverb that sound amazing thanks for all of your tutorials
As a beginner into the world of music production, this seems like a great tool to play with Reverb. Thanks for the review!!! I was happy to discover that I have it by nature of having MPB3 and free upgrade to MPB4, and it's in the bundle! Yay!!!
I've had Neoverb for a few months now, it's great! iZotope own Exponential Audio who in my opinion make the best reverbs you can find in a plugin and they used their reverbs in Neoverb. I don't use it on every mix but when I do I'm always happy with it!
I got the Tonal Balance package recently - it's good stuff but in the main I can mix much faster without it - still I'm glad I got it, all the Ozone 9 Advanced plugins - great EQ and compressor etc - will this be similar, speed up or slow down?
What's really super handy for me is the eq section! Eqing your reverb and the unmasking eq section, in case theirs buildup in your mix. But if you put it on a track or buss(say vocal buss) how does it know what's going on in the rest of the song, to know if there's any masking going on? Is there another plugin that you put on the mixbus or something, so that it can hear the whole mix and know if the vocal reverb is gonna have masking from the keys and drums per say ?
The plugin looks fairly easy to use yet it sounds pretty advanced / complex. I prefer an 80’s sounding reverb, that Yamaha box is right up my alley. I always use Roomworks SE which has a few basic descriptive presets and not much controls. This new iZoptope plugin does look like a colour picker from photoshop. It looks fresh but I would prefer if it had some classic catergories like the room type + size combination.
For me the dry/mix is very strange. It's totally glued with the original signal at 50% and remove the transients of the dry signal. Why they don't add side chain or ducking and is there pre-delay possible anyway? Called it Dreft Reverbwash 3in1!
I'm getting to the part where he's talking about blending the different algorithms. I guess that's pretty cool but that's going to also give a different effect than layering in a signal chain. Because sometimes that creates the sound you wanted to have anyways. Now but the auto cut feature? thats freaking sweet. I've been thinking for a long time we need some artificial intelligence to be able to train it to understand what we do as producers based on our style or genre and then suggest different edits or Cuts in our mix or in our audio. That would be amazing. You could try the thing that the robot suggests, then just try it, like thanks bot! And be on your way LOL
I like it, I'm considering upgrading to get Neoverb and the new plugin features that come added with Music Production SUITE 4, Nectar 3 plus also looks promising!
Looks pretty intuitive and simple. They're gonna have to sell me pretty hard if I'm switching from Fab-R and Valhalla for creative reverb, though. Love Izotopes products bigtime. Was looking forward to seeing stuff on this, thanks
The absolute first thing I'm trying is, when using a reverb, how sounds the plate! A Plate does not have early reflections. The Neuroverb Plate sound a bit like wet naked (perhaps good for some babe pictures) , but I don't like oil tank characteristics at all. I own an Yamaha R1000 (not a Motorcycle), 4 knob length with Eq. This sounds real granulated because of mono.
If you can live with the somewhat high cpu and latency of NeoVerb, its a good option. In this case the A.I. thingy actually makes decent suggestions for pre and post EQ. And the reverb algos are by Exponential Audio, which are very very good.
Owner of a lonely heart is produced by Trevor Horn , one of the best producers on the planet. There's no reverb that will make you sound like him. I bet there's a whole chain of effects on John Andersons vocals. There's lot's of interviews on you tube with Trevor so go check it out. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-X3Za2xF3wAc.html
I think its a dope reverb not gonna lie. I dont like that theres no bypass button thats nice and visible. Other than that its easy to get a nice reverb. nice vid brotha. 🔥
I do orchestral music and apply reverb on FX send track. It seems neoverb is for inserts. Or is it also good for send fxs? like the unmasking etc for a whole instrument group? Would really appreciate if someone has the answer or experimented with it already.
Yes, right on time. My guy. You are probably the most-watched RU-vidr on my subscription list. Word. Thanks. I just posted a comment about this yesterday and look it hear. Breakfast! Good morning from Alaska.
Forget this reverb for a second the music or that vocal was gorgeous....perfect what shows off the plugin.....Great reverb.....seems even better or more musical sound.... Not till side by side...but this is a new sound....
@BillyFreethought I liked some aspects of the sonible UI better, but there's a few things iZotope did better, too. As far as the sound... the Exponential reverbs are in the top tier (no, not everyone lists them as their favorites) and are time-tested modern classics almost. The sonible sound is new and, I found, lacking in comparison. I could've purchased the sonible one for $50 and passed. This one is $99 and I'll probably wait until a sale next year because I already have Nimbus and R4 and an EQ I can use in the mean time :-)
Great review, as always. I only wish they woul have included some kind of lofi-ish reverb algorithm, a spring reverb. Otherwise intreresting new reverb...
Lol such a subtle brag " I always skip pass it because I get early access to izotopes products". Great video bro deff subscribing after this one keep up the great content.
Do you like it for the more 'modern' reverb thing? I really thought it sounded ridiculous, for some reason. Might've just been that it was too wet for my taste, I might have to try the demo out myself. :)
Do you add the reverb effect as it's own Stereo FX channel, or do you slap it directly on to the mono vocal track? Does the plugin listen to all other instruments in the DAW, or does it only listen to the vocal track alone?
Thanks for the review. Not enough difference to justify shifting from Pro R. See if its gaining a go-to reputation (as per fabfilter) after 8 months or more; then reconsider :)
Wouldn’t a send be something that has more than one signal going through it, but only being “wet” if a person put it on a buss for instance, you’d just use the “mix” knob to achieve something very similar, as long as those are the signal you want affected
Hmm...This could be quite useful for very surgurical style clean mixing . But i don't think it will suit every genre equally. I could be wrong, haven't tried this personally yet (which i will soon). What do you guys say ?
It took me a bit to figure out, but NeoVerb is an attempt to make Exponential Symphony/R4 family algorithms more accessible. Rather than the massive preset list in Symphony, it attempts to provide you a preset by the criteria you set and the tone of your music (ozone algos)
I like you, like simple to stuff that enable me to tweak my sound effectivly and quickly. All in all I try to resist the iZotope AI. Im going to be buying sonsig from relab instead. To my ear it just sounds warmer. I love the LX480 too.
When can you review the slate digital vsx headphone room emulator? Claims to put you inside the worlds best mixing rooms and go down to sub frequencies, basically taking the guesswork out of mixing. To be fair, they did it almost flawlessly with the slate microphone. So... interested to see your review. I bought one yesterday, early adopter here I guess. Just waiting for the shipment
