Michael Willis 50 Posted May 12, 2019 Hi, I'm the author of Dragonfly Reverb. In case anybody here is interested, I've been working on an update that includes a new plugin. The old one has been renamed "Dragonfly Hall", and the new one is "Dragonfly Room". Download beta release 1.9.5 Please don't use Dragonfly Room for any "real work" yet, I'm still working on stabilizing it based on feedback from people testing it. Dragonfly Hall can be considered stable. It is mostly the same as the original Dragonfly Reverb plugin, and identifies itself as such to your DAW. If upgrading from an earlier version, please delete it and replace it with Dragonfly Hall Reverb, any existing sessions that were using the older one should automatically use Dragonfly Hall Reverb with the same saved settings. 2 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael Willis 50 Posted May 17, 2019 Beta release 1.9.6 is here. This one includes several bug fixes, a change in the damper/lpf dials, and a new look for Dragonfly Room: 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael Willis 50 Posted June 4, 2019 Please try Beta release 1.9.9. Several changes since the last update. Both plugins now have a new slider "Early Send" that controls how much of the early reflection signal is mixed into the input to the late algorithm. Dragonfly Room now has both High Cut and Low Cut. Dragonfly Hall has a "Flutter" dial that controls the level of modulation; this will be simply renamed to "Modulation" for the 2.0.0 release in order to better follow existing conventions in other reverbs. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Michael Willis 50 Posted February 8, 2020 (edited) Hi y'all, I'm working on Dragonfly Reverb again. There is a prerelease available: 2.9.1-beta. The Hall and Room reverbs are almost completely untouched, but there is a new plate reverb with three algorithms from Freeverb3, called Simple, Nested, and Tank. The Simple and Nested algorithms are two variations of Freeverb3's NVerb; they were called A and B in NVerb's interface. The Tank algorithm is based on STRev. To better hear the differences between the algorithms, crank up the decay time a bit and it will be much more obvious.

This would be the best (I love the Early Level feature) if we could also load our own IRs. Thanks mate for this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael Willis 50 Posted February 11, 2020 Pre-release 2.9.2-beta fixes a couple of bugs related to the High Cut and Low Cut dials: 2.9.1-beta would apply these two filters to the dry signal, and the plugin would often get into a state in which it would act like both the High Cut and Low Cut were turned all the way down.Pre-release 2.9.2-beta fixes a couple of bugs related to the High Cut and Low Cut dials: 2.9.1-beta would apply these two filters to the dry signal, and the plugin would often get into a state in which it would act like both the High Cut and Low Cut were turned all the way down. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael Willis 50 Posted February 12, 2020 Try 2.9.3-beta, it fixes another bug with the High Cut dial acting weird. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
