Witch Pig Black Mirror Reverb is a new free reverb plugin for macOS and Windows that makes unique dark distorted reflections.
The free plugin market is booming. There are as many high-quality free releases as ever. Witch Pig is a developer of such free plugins. He has made a name for himself with pretty unique plugins. I like to describe them as experimental as they have unique concepts.
His new free reverb plugin continues where the last one left off. Just as unique and special.
Witch Pig Black Mirror Reverb
Black Mirror Reverb is a new free reverb plugin. But it’s not a classic one. It’s a reverb dipped in a dark, distorted world. Or easier: it’s more of a multi-FX plugin that combines various distortion flavors with a reverb, allowing you to create unique dark distorted reflections.
The plugin is divided into two sections: on the left, the animations (not available in every DAW), and on the right, the controls. It has six in total.
Distort adjusts the built-in hard-clipping distortion. Then, divide, reflect, and shudder to modify the reverb’s size and space. Set the divide and reflect the flow and the shudder high; you can achieve a metallic juddering sound, says the developer.
Then, crush is a bit-crusher that allows you to adjust the sound’s bit rate. Higher settings produce harsh audio destruction. Lastly, Witch Pig Black Mirror Reverb has a magnify control that makes the sound louder. The current version is missing a dry/wet option to control the amount of effect. I hope this will be added in an update. That would be very helpful.
First Impression
It is a very aggressive, harsh, free reverb that you can experiment with here. It is certainly a free reverb that does not suit everyone in terms of sound. It’s experimental and different from the usual ones.
Witch Pig Black Mirror Reverb is now available for free download. It runs as a VST3/AU plugin on macOS (native Apple Silicon + Intel) and Windows. To download the plugin for free, you need to subscribe to Witch Pig’s YouTube channel via the official website.
