Live V.2 Reverb IR Pack
Live V.2 Reverb
IR Pack
Live V.2 Reverb IR Pack is a collection of reverb impulse responses from the A+ Live V.2 pedal, which was a production-ready project that never got released. While not an exact copy of the pedal's algorithms, this impulse pack can add some unique spaces to your reverb palette.
The impulse pack consists of 58 reverb impulses in WAV format (44.1, 48, 88.2 and 96kHz), all of which were obtained from the Live V.2 pedal. Each of the pedal's 11 algorithms was used in this collection. Some impulses also went through post-processing for proper operation.

ATTENTION! This impulse pack is NOT intended for use with the CabZone X/Bass/LE IR cabinet simulators, Twin/Olympic MkIIIS preamps, or any other similar devices. The reason is that some of the impulses are up to 20 seconds long; additionally, a fixed delay time is present in certain impulses. It's recommended to use this impulse pack with software IR players and/or plugins in your DAW.

Foreword
This impulse pack is based on the algorithms of a reverb pedal which never got released (because we were switching to a new hardware platform at the time) — but we're convinced those algorithms and impulses shouldn't be locked away as old prototypes, so we've turned them into this collection. This is not the most "natural"-sounding reverb pack; instead, this pack will give you a lot of tools for crafting unusual spaces.
The octave effects found in some of the Live V.2's algorithms are not present in these impulses (but you can always use third-party plugins for that). What the pack does provide is several different impulses for each algorithm, which will allow you to find the best-fitting option for your tracks.
The Live V.2 is a mono pedal, while all the impulses in this collection are stereo. This was achieved by shifting the phase slightly in one of the channels, resulting in a wide stereo effect. To use the impulses in mono processing, simply use one of their channels instead of both.
This page also has a link to a free-to-use demo pack which can give you an idea of what this impulse collection is all about.

Impulse Pack Structure
The pack includes 58 reverb impulses obtained from the 11 algorithms of the A+ Live V.2 reverb pedal. The impulses have the following formats:
CATH: cathedral reverb. Five space options with a resonant peak at around 1kHz. Resonance increases with the DECAY knob's position.
CAVE: cave reverb. Five "dark" space options with prominent reflections. The amount and saturation of the reflections increase with the DECAY knob's position.
CRISP: a generative space with bright reflections and a resonant peak in the upper midrange. Saturation and resonance increase with the DECAY knob's position.
DRIP: various spring reverb options. The five spring reverb emulations range from short slapback echo to long and saturated reverb.
HALL: a large room reverb with five size and damping options. Damping is decreased and size is increased with the DECAY knob's position.
OCTA: octave reverb. The five impulses don't actually add the octave effect, but they retain the algorithm's character and saturation. Saturation increases with the DECAY knob's position.
PART: particle reverb. In each of the five impulses for this reverb/delay algorithm, delay time and reverb saturation increase with the DECAY knob's position. Delay times are different between the two channels and aren't bound to any particular tempo, which works great for ambient pads.
PLATE: various plate reverb options. The five plate reverb emulations range from smaller, simpler reverbs to complex structures with multiple "perception points". The size and upper-midrange resonance increase with the DECAY knob's position.
ROOM: a small room with prominent echoes. The five impulses simulate a poorly damped room with weird reflections, ranging from short and clear echoes to slightly larger reverb spaces. This algorithm works best for creating "close reflections", as well as for damping the sound of string instruments and beefing up the drums. Reflection character and room size change with the DECAY knob's position.
SHIM: shimmer reverb. The impulses provide five reverb options with a resonance sweep. The artifact which happens while capturing the shimmer reverb impulse results in a relatively rare reverb feature: a bright resonant peak at around 10–12kHz. Reverb saturation increases with the DECAY knob's position.
SLAP: a short delay. The eight impulses include five stereo delay options (ranging from 30ms to 250ms), two generative delay options (SLAP_1000, SLAP_2000), and a sweep impulse which was obtained by turning the DECAY knob while recording. Fixed-time delay might not be the most common impulse variety, but it's certainly nice to have, as the algorithm introduces extra filtering along with all-pass filters for early reflections.
Except for the SLAP group, none of the impulses feature any pre-delay.
