Hi all,

Sorry if this is a repeat, but I haven't seen the message yet on this
end, and I'm quite eager to get nice reverb happening on my machine--
I'm doing some volunteer sound design for a play that's opening in four
days, and I need to make some things sound very spacious!

I've been playing around with various csound reverbs I've found on the
list or on people's web pages. So far nothing I've found sounds as
smooth as I would like.

I haven't yet tried convolution -- that might be my next step -- but I'm
wondering if there are other methods that improve on the reverb and
reverb2 opcodes?

So far the best orcs I've found are Eric Lyon's rev1.orc, and Hans
Mikelson's gardverb.orc (specifically the small and medium rooms), but
even those have too many distinct echoes for my taste. 

--Paul

P.S. I've also been working on an orc to generate subharmonics from any
input signal... it works but could be better... I'll post it when I
think it's really useable.
