A few things: 1. The manual has some cool details about this plug-in. The UA manuals are always a good read. 2. The UA forums has a thread where a lot of detail, history and pictures are posted about the restoration work done to be able make this plug-in. 3. This is not a convo or IR reverb. Yes, it uses some techniques from those methods, but that's not all there is to it. There is mic emulation code and room emulation code also going on. 4. About the door opening, there are some plug-ins that can take a while to load (AKG-BX20, Capital Chambers, Hitsville Reverb) so UA uses a flashing light/open door to let you know that it's still loading. When the door closes you know the plug-in has started processing audio with the new settings.
Thank you for the details really cool. I love capitol chambers and abbey rooms. They’re in my session template. I can’t wait to take this one for a spin.
I wonder what it would be like to hear how this would sound without golden ears. Just out of curiosity. It might help me understand why other mixes always sound so bad.. 😂
The door being open is a sign that the impulse response is being changed, it is not completely loaded until the door closes. It's a load time, Capitol Chambers has a similar light also.
Not just loading - calculating a new dynamic reverb model based on your slider positions. You'll notice the lag is much less on a fast PC on Spark than making the same change on UAD2 Hardware where the calculations take much longer than on a modern PC or Mac. I presume this (clever) approach is due to memory constraints on the UAD2 hardware.
In Pisa, Italy there is a cilindrical building made of marble called Battistero di San Giovanni. There lays the longest natural reverb I ever heard. It was so long there was a sign begging visitors not to clap their hands. I was so impressed that I can perfectly remember its sound even 10 years after. I wish I would find an IR of that place.
Love convolution reverb! When ever im doing a location recording i allways capture ir's if practically possible. Use it alot in my mixes. A short ir to give realism together with other algorithmic reverbs is allways nice
From the user manual: "Hitsville Reverb Chambers is neither a general impulse response (IR) convolution reverb nor a typical algorithmic reverb. Instead, Hitsville Reverb Chambers utilizes Universal Audio’s breakthrough hybrid technologies, combining expertly sampled impulse responses with advanced algorithmic DSP techniques. "
Wow this sounds SO natural, and definitely gives a vintage feel to the sound. So much variation to what you can achieve. I do think the UI is a bit much but it's also kind of cute. Will definitely be checking this out.
UA did the same thing with the Capitol Chambers. Fascinating classic reverb sound that we all know from the Frank Sinatra/Nelson Riddle sessions and many more.
Definitely not Sandstorm by Darude at least from my lookup. Maybe this is an inside joke as that lookup was an electronic track. To bad. Very nice piece of music.
I'm looking for the Jazz track but it's not coming up. The only song titled "Sandstorm" by Darude I find is a techno track. Never mind found it! "42nd Street Shuffle" by Rikard From
"Ville" is a common English sufix meaning city ot town, etc.. Related to the word "village". Motown nicknamed Hitsville - the city (or place, generally) where hits are made.
It should be possible at some point to feed an image into a machine learning system and it will automatically generate a mathematically correct impulse response based completely on the image input.
Man, it would be nice if you actually read the manual. All of your guesses on how this plugin was made are answered in detail there. It's not impulse responses, although they are used.
Thank You Soooo MUCH! Yes, it's a great video; except that he's saying this is „Sandstorm“ by Darude, a famous electro/techno track. I don't know why he leads people into a completely wrong direction since i'm sure MANY people would LOVE this „demo“ track!!!😅
as I understodd it was an UAD plugin I shut down your video. In 2022 we don't need extra expansive hardware Dsp to run some plgin, big up Valhalla 50 buck verb which can made the same resut than this scam. ( 700 hardware Buck + 350 plugin buck seriously stop promotoe this apple-ish way of life )
Actually there may be a reason the door opens, just like in their Capitol room verb. It might be because it’s creating a new IR, which takes a bit of time. Once it’s done, the door closes :)
No offence to any other company, UAD just gets it right. The reverb works for all genres, bc it is so good. Plus the options to change light and dark shades, it is all there, simple with no fuss.
Gezellig means cozy, just like hygge in Danish means cozy. Everyone says there's no English word to describe it in both languages, but best way to put it is Netflix and chill :)
I've been pondering about how to translate Gezellig myself, as I am dutch. Cozy was one of the things I thought of too, but cozy translates to knus. I think chill is the proper word to choose for gezellig here.
The opening of the door is an indicator that processing is still taking place to model the new parameters. This is why you should not automate mic movement etc. of this reverb in real time as the results will be unpredictable. On UAD hardware you'll see it takes longer for the door to close as the parameter calculations take LONGER on the UAD SHARC hardware than they do in native (Spark) on a fast machine. (PS it's the same deal when you see the blinking bar under the the chamber name - it's calculating and the changed reverb profile is not live yet)
uad really got their chambers down. I got the capitol, and it's such a lush and amazing sounding reverb. It eats up a quarter of my dsp though, which is why I often record it like a real chamber from the bad aux with the vocal, also has the interesting side effect of being more different to the vocal, because the vocal gets treated differently than the reverb.
I've been using this along with the Hitsville EQ for the past week. As someone who's been chasing the motown sound (I have the Acme Motown DI box which I hiiiiiighly recommend!), I love these. I tracked a band yesterday and put it on, but but they said, "we want a modern heavy sound." Understandable, so I won't use it for them. As a producer, the hardest thing about this plugin is that I have to refrain from using it on clients who want a modern sound.
I really can't watch you tweaking like crazy, without having read the manual, learning that something's going on with every UAD reverb plugin based on algorithmic recalculations: "When the Chamber, Speakers, Microphones, Distance, Lo, Hi, or Decay controls are adjusted (and when presets are loaded), algorithmic recalculations are performed by the plug-in. These recalculations cause a time lag before the new control values are heard. Additionally, sonic artifacts can occur while these recalculations are performed if audio is currently being processed by the plug-in. ... RECALCULATION INDICATORS During algorithmic recalculations, visual indicators are active. These indicators signify that audio is not stable until the model recalculations are complete. The visual recalculation indicators are displayed when you select a different Chamber, Speakers, or Microphones, and when you change the Distance or Decay setting. Note: When the Chamber, Speakers, Distance, Microphones, Lo, Hi, or Decay controls are adjusted, the new values are not completely heard until the Recalculation Indicators are inactive. Chamber, Speakers, Distance, Microphones, Lo, Hi, Decay - When any of these controls are adjusted, the line under the Chamber name flashes. ... Speakers, Distance, Microphones - When these controls are adjusted, the line under the chamber name flashes, and the door within the chamber view is open, alluding to an engineer entering the chamber to change or reposition the mics." Patience, young man. Wait until that door's closed 🙂
@@lassorb4752 I'm not checking for concepts, I don't want to make videos. I click a link, I see somebody impatiently tweaking knobs without giving himself and his viewers time to listen, I let him know. In this case, I coincidentally happened to know about the matter. I told him. That's all.
I've had signal analysis classes and it is amazing that a system's transfer function (input vs. output) can be fully characterized by an impulse response - but - the system must be linear and time invariant (LTI). I'm sure every physical space is not 100% linear to sound impulses, but the non-linearity must be small enough that it works for the most part.
According to UA's website, I don't think they used traditional convolution but rather a "proprietary Dynamic Room Modeling technology, an exclusive combination of physical modeling and advanced measurement techniques." Not sure what that means
Since you asked, The 'ville, in Hitsville would be pronounced like vil in villain. Rhymes with pill, or hill. The door indicates the time it takes for the different adjustments to become ready to interact with. It's great to hear gezellig used when discussing a reverb's ambiance. "Opposite of convolution...", I think algorithmic is the term you're referring to. Curious if you've worked with some of LiquidSonics' reverbs. They have some cool technology for allowing modifying and interacting with convolution reverbs.
I wonder how it compares to the Abbey Road chambers, which is my favorite. it sounds natural and you can manually set the left/right delay to get width
I actually prefer the Hitsville to the Capitol Chambers plugin. Another added bonus is the Hitsville takes far less DSP than Capitol Chambers. Pair that with the fact that you do not need to be connected to your UAD hardware to run it and that is why this new Hitsville is the winner in my mind.
Love the sound, but you need to be connected to the internet and that's a no go for me. I have the subscription at the moment but will not keep it once it expires. Even Adobe gives you a couple of days without connection to use their stuff if your internet is f***ed.
@@GRedit1000 Oh wow, I didn’t realize that. Yeah, I can see how that would be a deal breaker for some people. That doesn’t effect me so much, but that does seem less than ideal for certain folks. I don’t know why they just don’t integrate an iLok type authentication system. Then you could run the Spark plugins without an internet connection and without being connected to your Apollo interface. I refuse to use LUNA for that very reason. I hate the fact that I can’t open a session on the go because I am not hooked up. That’s a deal breaker for me.
Through UA Spark, their subscription service, a select few of the plug-ins run natively off your computer without UA hardware. Hitsville Reverb is included!
why do you (always)use a completed track for the effects to test/try? in a mix scenario you would want to try to use it on a part of a track / piece of the mix that needs to be enhanced? in other words: effects are not applicable to fixed tracks or are they?
Since Acustica Audio released this wonderfull SILVER , every other reverb plugin feel tasteless ..... So much room is available in only few volume so it became my go to for reverb . The only Bad point were heavy cpu but since they update it in core 18 it became ❤️
" Jejjale" ? or "Rejale" ?🤣 Besides , That sounds good and the Music too ... I know you're not crazy abt "Acustica Audio" but did you check " LAVA " theyr rather recent Mics plugin ?
You absolutely should go. When you do go, however, do not reach across the rope in the control room and touch the LA-2As. They will definitely kick you out. Trust me.
Great review as always. And it sounds nice. But I refuse to get in line for the subscription. Not cost effective. As much as they want us to believe it is... they certainly aren't forcing subscriptions because... it brings down their profits. 😉
I enjoyed spelunking down all the comments here. Numerous recommendations. Most of which I hadn't ever heard of. I use Valhalla delay. One of these days, I'll try UA's Spark. I can only afford so many subscriptions.
The only thing what annoys me is the fact that you can´t use all the UAD plugins without an existing Internet connection throughout the session. So i do not buy very much from those companies who do this. This is Plugin paranoia.
Well you can put 4 mics on a Latch Lake mic stand no problems, then do them all at once. Bui this is better than putting an amp int eh bathroom and miking it, although sometime s the bathroom is brilliant as long as no one uses it during recording. That causes a leak... And having been a jazz drummer for a while now (I'm old!), quite i cannot hear any Jazz in your video. Just pop.
For certain plugins, like reverbs and chambers, I don't think you are making a good review - one that helps people hear what the possibilities are - if you don't pass some individual instruments through them. I don't understand why you don't just get a band into a studio and record them for free under the condition you can use the tracks (while mentioning the band) for your reviews ... someone with almost 150k subscribers should be able to do that... not really sure why this is not your approach...
You should do some research on these plugs before you criticize the interface. The reason the door opens in this plug is the same reason the door opens in the Capitol Reverb plugin from UA. Please look it up. Also, theres many of us old school guys that appreciate a vintage interface on these plugins that you kids dont, and thats OK that you dont. Some of us come from a time when all of these bits of gear that are now emulated, sat in racks and you had to turn a knob to get what you wanted out of that piece of kit, and its familiar to see a graphic representation of that interface in the computer. Its a great benefit to us older folk that you cant seem to appreciate. I understand. I enjoy your videos and learn a lot from them. Keep up the great work. Its entertaining to watch your reaction to some of the user interfaces as well. It makes me smile and shake my head at the same time.
Watching you work this plugin is just so comical. You make adjustments that cause the door to open and the look on your face expecting instant feedback is hilarious. You have to wait for the plugin to load new settings/impulses before you can hear any change. This is why you need to read the instructions first before testing it. Other than that, nice video. I have this plugin and it does what its suppose to do, just like the Capitol Chambers one. BTW in that plugin, not only does the door open but the little light on top of the Capitol building flashes. Its never made me want to get out of my chair in disbelief as I know that the open door means "wait" until the plug has done its thing. This takes a lot less time than going into the basement or climbing into the attic, and tweaking the mic distance and speaker configurations. It is a clever graphical representation of the real life physical space. Perhaps a big red pause graphic would be more to your liking as a way of telling the user to WAIT until the plug is ready. Personally Im a fan of proper graphics. Younger engineers dont seem to care about that stuff. To each his own.
As a longtime fan of Motown and as an African American I can tell you that Motown to us … it like abbey road and this and the Eq they have from hitsvile is a vintage production engineer’s wet dream lol. Because basically the team berry gordy put together back then basically was the original “bedroom producers” he took 2 story flat and made one the most iconic studios in American history… so much so that it’s a museum now… since Motown relocated to L.A. around 1971 … I’d love to try these plug-ins
I know the RUclips game is not easy, but that thumbnail is pretty pretty disturbing, I’m not sure I would want to click on it if I want already subbed…

You should work for them, sales department and customer service 😁
I’ve been using this for a few weeks and it’s magical….so smooth and natural…especially on snares and percussion
Very natural and smooth sounding reverb.
Gesellig! it sounds like a big comfy place where people gather to listen
IK have a couple of nice studio reverbs too, with different positions in the room, love using em to create a sense of depth and shared space.
It would be great if you could swap out the door to see if it changes the tone - or choose different engineers to swap out the mic
🙄 lol
I wonder what it would be like to hear how this would sound without golden ears. Just out of curiosity. It might help me understand why other mixes always sound so bad..
😂
Excellent they really missed out on that lol.
the door remains opened until the IRs are fully loaded, not long on the native versions but a little longuer on the uad version
Almost made me spit out my coffee lol

"Ville" is a common English sufix meaning city ot town, etc.. Related to the word "village". Motown nicknamed Hitsville - the city (or place, generally) where hits are made.
Ville is the french name for town
It’s absolutly Hitsville with ville like town in french. Like Histville U.K by The Clash (Sandinista album)
The Ocean Way Studios plugin sounds really great too ! That one is just good, it sounds very natural.
Come to Detroit and we can go hang out at the hitsville Motown museum.
It should be possible at some point to feed an image into a machine learning system and it will automatically generate a mathematically correct impulse response based completely on the image input.
Interesting thought indeed
kinda one of the best reverb sounds, ive heard in plugins
Man, it would be nice if you actually read the manual. All of your guesses on how this plugin was made are answered in detail there. It's not impulse responses, although they are used.
at this price i would like to know if other convolution reverbs can keep up with that lovely sound....
Sounds Beautiful! LiquidSonics are the kings of mixing multiple IRs with the modulation of algorithmic reverbs tho. :)
Really? Their reverbs hardly glue with audio and rather disturb a track or mix
I think the rooms needs an option to have different "oud behang" to have more gezelligheid😊
And maybe the option to place a table with a gezellig kleedje in the corner
Also, the addition of oma’s staanlamp would be great to add to the vintage vibe
It sounds amazing on the track you used, and I'm definitely gonna check it out. I really wanna hear it on vocals

And having been a jazz drummer for a while now (I'm old!), quite i cannot hear any Jazz in your video. Just pop.
For certain plugins, like reverbs and chambers, I don't think you are making a good review - one that helps people hear what the possibilities are - if you don't pass some individual instruments through them. I don't understand why you don't just get a band into a studio and record them for free under the condition you can use the tracks (while mentioning the band) for your reviews ... someone with almost 150k subscribers should be able to do that... not really sure why this is not your approach...
You should do some research on these plugs before you criticize the interface. The reason the door opens in this plug is the same reason the door opens in the Capitol Reverb plugin from UA. Please look it up. Also, theres many of us old school guys that appreciate a vintage interface on these plugins that you kids dont, and thats OK that you dont. Some of us come from a time when all of these bits of gear that are now emulated, sat in racks and you had to turn a knob to get what you wanted out of that piece of kit, and its familiar to see a graphic representation of that interface in the computer. Its a great benefit to us older folk that you cant seem to appreciate. I understand. I enjoy your videos and learn a lot from them. Keep up the great work. Its entertaining to watch your reaction to some of the user interfaces as well. It makes me smile and shake my head at the same time.
Then do your own videos please! Wytses concept = no manual!
@@lassorb4752 LOL.
🤣
i was interested in your comment until "you kids"
Watching you work this plugin is just so comical. You make adjustments that cause the door to open and the look on your face expecting instant feedback is hilarious. You have to wait for the plugin to load new settings/impulses before you can hear any change. This is why you need to read the instructions first before testing it. Other than that, nice video.
I have this plugin and it does what its suppose to do, just like the Capitol Chambers one. BTW in that plugin, not only does the door open but the little light on top of the Capitol building flashes. Its never made me want to get out of my chair in disbelief as I know that the open door means "wait" until the plug has done its thing. This takes a lot less time than going into the basement or climbing into the attic, and tweaking the mic distance and speaker configurations. It is a clever graphical representation of the real life physical space. Perhaps a big red pause graphic would be more to your liking as a way of telling the user to WAIT until the plug is ready. Personally Im a fan of proper graphics. Younger engineers dont seem to care about that stuff. To each his own.
gezellig - cozy
Bob Clearmountain uses the "castle de haar" Impulse response in his mixes 😂✌️
As a longtime fan of Motown and as an African American I can tell you that Motown to us … it like abbey road and this and the Eq they have from hitsvile is a vintage production engineer’s wet dream lol. Because basically the team berry gordy put together back then basically was the original “bedroom producers” he took 2 story flat and made one the most iconic studios in American history… so much so that it’s a museum now… since Motown relocated to L.A. around 1971 … I’d love to try these plug-ins
I prefer knobs and buttons, but this plugin seems awesome and sounds great.
I know the RUclips game is not easy, but that thumbnail is pretty pretty disturbing, I’m not sure I would want to click on it if I want already subbed…
that reverb sounds nice. very cheselech, or whatever that was called, yeah
How this compare to the Waves Abbey Road Chambers? I love that one, but it's so heavy on the CPU...
for the non-Dutch speaking people: gezellig = cozy
If you are freaking out about those features, you need to check out Vienna MIR.
Is the word you used the same as "koselig"? Norwegian for "cozy", but also so much more than that.
Sounds good. It helps that the track you used is absolute fire.
What's the track on this? It's gorgeous. Yes, I get the gag, it's Darude.... but what is it actually?
The EQ you just did a video on (the Kazrog EQ) was one of the units that was used in the same studio that helped shape that Motown sound.
Here's the thing about reverb: it's great! This one no exception!
I'm South African - I know what gesellig is.
I tried to "repeat after you".. I ended up having to go to the sink and spit.... I tried though. haha. Those are great sounding plugins.
