These Impulse Responses were created by Altiverb users and kindly submitted to the site.
Fokke van Saane makes available this collection of speaker, tube radio, intercom , walkman, car stereo, boombox and phone impulse responses. In this set are mono to stereo IR's, but also the first mono to mono IR's available for Altiverb. All of these combine wonderfully with stadium or room presets.
Some of the top producers on the planet consider this the only option for vocal verb.
Classic equipment, recorded by Rainer Oleak and post produced by Kai Hoffmann
Dick Magger put his sweeps through the horn loaded PA system of a football stadium (that we cannot use the name of) effectively sampling both its PA and its acoustics. Mono to stereo.
Dick Magger strikes again, this time in an indoor ice hockey arena. The quality of the PA system of this venue is much higher than the one in the Football Stadium. Mono to stereo and mono to quad samples made with DP3, ti-book, mobile-IO and handheld C414's.
Bengt Nilsson sent us a nice set of mono to stereo and stereo to stereo samples of this pretty medium sized church in Sweden.
The First Church of Christ's Scientists is approximately 120 X 80 X 50 feet. It's interior consists of wood and plaster with minimal damping material. Submitted by Todd Zimmerman.
More from Fokke van Saane. A dustbin, a bucket, two glass flower pots, a glass pot of chocolate spread, coal hod, washing machine, vacuum cleaner tube. All captured in stereo, sometimes in A-B and sometimes using MS. Useful for altering voices.
John Baccigaluppi from Tape Op magazine submitted this stereo to stereo Impulse response of the Hangar Studio, Sacramento, to accompany their Altiverb review. For the sample a Genelec 1031A on the front edge of the fed two Earthworks TC-30's set up 20 feet from the stage, into Millenia Media HV-3 Mic pre straight into DP.
B. Groenekamp swept this gigantic reverb. The concrete basement is only 30 by 25 feet, but the 20 odd drawing boards that are set up at various heights and angles partly explain the exceptional length of the decay.
Four locations in this former brothel were submitted by Hans Oster from the Netherlands.The hollow elongated bike cellar, the spacious brick wall ping pong room, the tight concrete piano basement, and the dance instruction room.
Oxygenhose submitted this bunch of samples from an unknown reverb plug-in. He adds:
"Is cloning moral?
Is it right to play god?
Only one way to find out..."
Blake Eiseman writes: I have a two-story living room which actually has a pretty nice room sound to it. I've always thought it would make a great drum room. Two Earthworks TC30K omni mics were placed as high as the stands would take them, in opposite corners of the room.The decay is a little over one second long.
Accompanying Erik Hawkins' Altiverb review in Mix magazine, here are the BX10 spring reverb samples made by Erik and depicted proud owner Victor Owens.
Eric Rehl submitted marvelous samples of these two classic Bring-Me-To-Your-Leader type echo toys.
