Get it!

Get it on Sale, in a bundle or full price. Just get it. My go-to for deep, lush sustain. Best on single solo instruments. Don’t recommend for a bus mix unless you’re really trying to gooo oooout theeeeeeere.

Not loading in Cubasis now

Love this app, but it won’t load in Cubasis now without deleting and reloading. This is the case in insert and send positions. Thx

A letdown

wanted some good rooms and plates but all these presets sound the same. Big meh

Response from developer

Hi, Blackhole is not intended to be a realistic reverb, but rather to create spaces (large and small) that could never exist in reality. The app description says as such, sorry it was not what you were looking for.

Gimmicky sounds....

I thought for sure I could get like the very best Plate reverb or any kind of beautiful rooms and halls....nope....everything sound has attached to it some kind of fart or thronk or burp....regret buying.

Sublime.

This has to be at or very near the top of the list of greatest virtual reverbs ever created. It can add an otherworldly harmonic “breathing” to whatever you run through it, but if applied intelligently, always sounds musical. Never too saccharine like a number of algorithmic reverbs can be when set to stun.

This is the best one

This is the best one to get all the others ones just sound all the same sort of thing as this.

Doesn’t work with iOS 13.3.1

It could be a great reverb, but has some serious glitches on iPad 7 with iOS 13.3.1. It can’t be used like this: after a few minutes of usage it starts producing a loud and annoying glitching sound. Please fix this bug. Don’t let it be a waste of money!

Response from developer

Hi - there is a known bug with some IAA apps on iOS 13, where apps will begin buzzing after a period of time. This is a known issue on Apple's end which we have been in contact with them about - it also affects apps other than ours, and was introduced in iOS 13. If you're using IAA, we recommend using AUv3, which doesn't have this issue.

Lovely verb but crashes...

IPad 6th gen and whenever I use it as a plug in, say in ToneStack or AUM, inevitably it will crash at a largely random point. I use my iPad for live and sadly this isn’t stable enough for live use which is a massive shame and a massive blow considering purchase price

Response from developer

Hi, sorry to hear about the crashes. Is this with AUv3 or InterAp[ Audio? If you email support@eventide.com, we can work with you to resolve the issue.

I love this app

I like this app I like it a lot! 5 stars
