Legendary Reverb for Your Recordings
Reverb Foundry's HD Cart reverb plug-in delivers the high-density reverb algorithms modeled on one of the most coveted high-end reverb processors ever made. From the mid-'80 and for many years thereafter, this legendary piece of hardware was standard kit for every pro studio. As a result, many of the iconic recordings from this period are beholden to this (then) state-of-the-art reverb unit for the lion's share of their ambience and overall sound. The unit's HD/surround expansion cartridge included the only algorithm ever to take full advantage of its formidable dual-board processing muscle. This stunning reverb program rocked quadraphonic, 5.0 surround, and high-density stereo reverb modes and produced rich, dense reverb unlike any other.

Enhancements for modern production
To bring this coveted heritage algorithm up to date for contemporary audio production, Reverb Foundry has included core algorithm enhancements that were not available in the original hardware, resulting in wider and more spacious reverb than was ever possible with the original unit. The early reflections also incorporate additional filtering for greater control over the spectral balance of the reverb within your mix.
Advanced Stereo and Surround Modes
In its day, this cutting-edge surround algorithm was one of the first to acknowledge the effects of early and late reflections on a quadraphonic field, taking full advantage the original hardware's dual-board architecture. Included in Reverb Foundry's software re-creation is the infamous high-density stereo mode, as well as quadraphonic and 5.0 routing configurations. Operating in its stereo modes, the reverb can be positioned towards the front, in the center for highest reflection density, or pushed towards the rear of the simulated environment. In addition, the full control set of the original unit is available on the Reverb Foundry HD Cart plug-in. Sweetwater's advice: the Reverb Foundry HD Cart captures the magic of a legendary reverb algorithm. Having it in your virtual processing rack is a no-brainer.
