W.A. Production KSHMR Reverb

Globally acclaimed music producer KSHMR collaborates with W.A. Production to deliver his first reverb plugin with many distinctive features

Internationally renowned music producer KSHMR has released his first reverb plugin with W.A. Production and with it, comes a gamut of unique features. KSHMR has built many of his reverb tricks into the plugin including reverse swells, transient softening and removal, as well as side-chaining.

The layout of KSHMR Reverb is straightforward, and the features are clearly laid out. Across the top panel are the Reverb Types, including Hall, Plate, or Spring. There’s a dropdown menu that grants access to a wide variety of the main man’s presets.

KSHMR Reverb includes standard reverb parameters like diffusion, pre-delay, width, length and size. The Mix Knob is a special feature and the modes can be switched by clicking Mix. Mix mode controls the balance between dry and wet volumes, and Reverb Volume mode controls only the reverb volume. When the reverb volume is increased, the Dry signal stays at 100%. This mode works in a similar way to sending the Reverb to a return signal. There’s a De-Esser, Mod Depth and Mod Speed for controlling the intensity and speed of fluctuation of reverb.

In the Middle Panel, there’s an EQ for shaping the overall sound, the Ducking Threshold, which catches the peaks of the waveform, and the Gate Threshold which catches the lowest points of the waveform. These thresholds tell the effects in the bottom panel when to activate. One parameter that was noticeably missing on both Thresholds is a numeric value.
