When to use it

Spring reverb is a specialist sound, and this is a dedicated one, unlike the larger hall and plate engines in the rated reverb list (VintageVerb, Pro-R 2). Best for guitars, drums, organs and vocals that need a splashy, retro character. Suits rock, surf, dub, soul, and lo-fi or indie production.

Where to buy

AudioDeluxe: $29 (regular $89)
