Soundtoys Little Plate Reverb

Electromechanical Reverb - The lush sound of plate reverb – with a modern twist.

What it is:
A recreation of the highly distinctive - EMT 140 plate reverb - with a couple of fun twists.

How we use it:
Capture the charm of one of the industry's standard weapons with unlimited new parameters.  

Why it's cool:
Little Plate takes the vintage sound and pushes it to infinity, literally.  Electromechanical Reverb | Simple Control, Infinite Possibilities 

The unmistakable plate reverb sound – warm, rich and spacious – is now at your fingertips.
Inspired by the original EMT 140 plate reverb, we captured the gorgeous sound and vibe of this studio classic and turned it into a fun and musically inspiring plug-in. And we couldn’t resist pushing the limits of reality, so we added a couple of fun twists that let you take Little Plate to spaces the original hardware only dreamed of.

Zero to Infinity and Beyond
While the original reverb could only muster a modest five seconds of reverberation time, we pushed that number higher. A lot higher. With Decay Time set to infinity, Little Plate’s reverb tails never fade away.

Cut the Clutter
Keep your reverb and your mixes clean with the built-in Low Cut filter. Sometimes the low frequency build-up in reverbs can get a little out of control. Use the Low Cut control to tame those boomy bass frequencies.

Space Modulator
Flip the Mod switch to introduce slight modulation into the reverb tail. These subtle and chaotic variations can result in a thicker and smoother sound, especially at long decay times on pitched instruments like keys, guitar, and voice.

Highlights
