Super Massive 5 adds Sirius echo/reverb to the best free plugin in the galaxy

Valhalla isn’t done with reverb/echo blockbusters to reverberate through the end of 2025. The free plug-in — so good we really would pay for it — is back, and now it’s gotten Sirius. Welcome Super Massive 5.0.0.

Valhalla’s all-new reverb, 8 years in development, goes clean and natural

We don’t need another great reverb, let alone another great Valhalla reverb/echo. But we get one anyway. Sean Costello and Valhalla say this one is focused on transparency and realism — plus modulation and a bunch of echo modes when you want them. The now is FutureVerb.
