Waves IR-L Convolution Reverb

Add Thousands of World-Class Acoustic Spaces to Your Studio.

For hyper-realistic acoustic spaces, nothing beats convolution reverb—it’s like the difference between a photograph of a concert hall, and a painting of a concert hall. However, unlike traditional reverbs, convolution reverbs can have a daunting collection of parameters and options.

IR-L cuts through the complexity. Featuring the acclaimed sound quality of Waves’ IR1 audio engine, you can bring over 2,000+ acoustic spaces into your studio—from stairwells to cathedrals.
