• Surround impulses - 50 Surround IRs (4.0/5.0) subdivided into Halls/Plates/Rooms ideal for Post Production and Music

• COMBO-AMB impulses – 25 explosive ambience and combo delayed ambiences designed to create “in face” vox sound and aggressive gtrs

There’s not a whole lot to add to my original review of this fantastic collection, I loved it then, I love it even more now. I’m using several of these on every mix I do now and it’s all I’ll ever need. If you use convolution reverbs you really NEED these!
