Goldplate marries Relab’s gorgeous, silky smooth reverberation tails with Kush’s plush harmonic shaping and fat compression curves, resulting in all the basic amenities of a typical reverb, but with an interface that goes far beyond what you expect from traditional reverb controls. Dial in a warm distortion of the signal pre-reverb and thick, pumping compression post-reverb, and select any mix of two different plate materials. And, unlike most algorithmic plates, this one sounds equally incredible across the full range of its reverb time.

If you’re among the many engineers who’ve yet to explore distortions and compression on reverb, or who prefer small rooms to plates for shorter brighter spaces, or think algorithmic plates can’t quite match the density and lushness of a 600 pound metal plate driven by tubes, Goldplate is here to change your mind.
