Praise for TSAR-1 Reverb, Plug-In Updates, Reviews...

Praise for the newly released TSAR-1 Reverb is coming in from everywhere it seems! We've had a lot of people emailing and telling us what how fantastic TSAR-1 is. Here's a couple of the TSAR-1 Reverb christmas cards we've recieved.

Greg Wells (Katy Perry, Weezer, Timbaland, Mika, Pink, etc.)

Grammy nominated producer and songwriter Greg Wells (Katy Perry, Weezer, Timbaland, Mika, Pink, etc.) have had the pleasure of using the TSAR-1 lately and he had this to say on Gearslutz.com:

"I love this reverb. I got it sounding like a Capital chamber in about 20 seconds. Really musical sounding."

Tony Shepperd, (Backstreet Boys, Whitney Houston, Kenny Loggins, etc.)

Another christmas cheer comes from Tony Shepperd, veteran mixing engineer (Backstreet Boys, Whitney Houston, Kenny Loggins, etc.)

"One of the hardest things to get right in software is density and Softube (once again) has managed to make software sound like hardware."

Brett Chassen and Bob Kulick, Office Studios LA

In Office Studios LA, metal producers Brett Chassen and Bob Kulick are currently recording the Metal Sinatra record with metal celebrities doing Sinatra interpretations. We've heard a couple of bits from it and it's going to rock! Brett had a problem with reverb though but since he got his hands on TSAR-1 Reverb that all changed...

"I've never been quite satisfied with plugin reverbs in the past but this plug was something different. It really sat in the track on everything i threw at it... I used it everywhere on the Metal Sinatra record and it quickly became the 'official reverb'. I loved the Vintage EMT Plate on vocals, thick and lush! The Drum Plate and Chamber were amazing! Its quite flexible yet VERY easy and intuitive to use. I can't sing its praise loud enough. Simply great! Another killer plug by the artisans at Softube!"

FAB (Jennifer Lopez, Toots And The Maytals, Marc Ronson, etc.)

Thanks Brett!

Producer, mixer and all around good guy FAB (Jennifer Lopez, Toots And The Maytals, Marc Ronson, etc.) is also among those that are very happy with TSAR-1 Reverb.

"I put the TSAR-1 on one track of a song 'just to see if I liked it' and I ended up using it exclusively for the rest of the mix."
