Spaces MK2 by HoRNet

Spaces MK2 is a room reverb that uses ray tracing to simulate reflections in a room you design, with set dimensions and wall materials.

You place the source and listener in 3D and can output stereo or binaural audio, for about $22.70.

Best for: Vocals, Acoustic Instruments, Drums, Sound Design. Genres: Ambient & Cinematic, Jazz, Acoustic & Classical.

Keywords: room, spacious, dialogue, cinematic, drums, glassy, macro controls, mixing, sound design, vocals, wide.

What it does

Spaces MK2 is a room reverb that builds the space from its geometry and materials rather than from a list of reverb types: "Don't pick a preset. Design a room." Ray tracing calculates the reflections from what you set.

A demo is available and a 15-day money-back guarantee applies. Owners of the first Spaces can upgrade.

When to use it

Spaces MK2 is the better pick when you want to place a dry source in a believable, specific room rather than dial in a classic reverb sound. Compared with Valhalla Room or FabFilter Pro-R 2, which give you a finished algorithm to shape with decay and tone controls, it asks you to set room dimensions, wall materials and positions, which is slower but more literal. Unlike LiquidSonics Cinematic Rooms Professional, it does not aim for lush, long tails, and it is much cheaper. Its binaural HRTF output mode also makes it useful for headphone-first work.
