NastyReverb
A digital reverb effect.

NastyReverb is a primitive-sounding digital reverb effect. It roughly simulates the sound of a reverberant space such as a room, hall or drainpipe. You can adjust the time the reverb takes to decay and also the ratio of the input signal to the reverberated output (wet/dry mix).

Suggested Uses and Practical Applications
Andrew Bencina says: “Used subtly, NastyReverb can create the illusion of space when applied to an otherwise flat mono input.”
