IR-L is a streamlined convolution reverb that brings over 2,000 acoustic spaces into your studio with the sound quality of the IR1 engine – from stairwells to cathedrals.

Convolution reverb delivers hyper-realistic spaces but often comes with a daunting collection of parameters, whereas IR-L sticks to standard reverb controls. The 4.8 GB library contains a carefully curated collection of impulses recorded with first-class field-recording gear, and you can import your own WAV files and third-party impulses. Trim the beginning and end of each impulse, set pre-delay from 0 to 500 milliseconds, and choose mono, mono-to-stereo, full stereo or efficient stereo mode.
