TLDR: Free Download: 4 Spring Reverb presets for Ableton Live's Hybrid Reverb.

How cool would it be if I could make any sound in my music sound like it is going through the spring reverb on my tube guitar amplifiers?

I've got a Supro Amulet (left) and a Fender Deluxe (right) that both have beautiful spring reverbs. I recorded muted guitar strums to create Impulse Responses (which are really just samples) of each and place them inside Ableton Live's Hybrid Reverb. Now I can add those specific reverbs to any sound I want.

For the Birds... 🦜

While I was doing this, I had the windows open and could hear the morning birds signing. I sampled those sounds and combined them with the spring reverb recordings. Then I put those into Hybrid Reverb and created some really nice textured "bird-verbs."

These reverbs really make anything sound like they are coming straight out of my guitar amps!

I want you to have them!!

If you don't have Ableton Live's Hybrid Reverb, you can drop the samples into any Convolution Reverb Plug-in.
