Manny Marroquin Reverb by Waves

10x Grammy winner Manny Marroquin’s personal vision of reverb requires multiple effects—and for the first time, Waves has put them together in one plugin. These are the reverb sounds on tracks by Kendrick Lamar, Lizzo, Kanye West, Imagine Dragons, Alicia Keys, Sia, and so many more that Manny has mixed.

This fresh, flexible approach incorporates 18 different reverbs types/sizes—from tight ambience to luxurious spaces—complemented by compression, 3-band EQ, flanger, and distortion. It’s brilliant.

“We’ve modeled the very best reverbs in my room: 6 different reverbs, with 3 different room sizes for each. We’ve also included built-in EQ and compression, which I always use to shape the reverbs so they sit perfectly in the mix. Plus, we added what I like to call the ‘fun’ section, with phaser and distortion. Sometimes I’ll send something to a really big reverb, then add phase and distortion to get some really unique tails. With this plugin, it’s all right there in front of you.”
