The EMT 140 revolutionized reverb in 1957 by introducing a resonating metal plate to generate rich ambient effects. While these plate reverb systems deliver a smooth and natural sound prized in audio production, their physical size, cost, and maintenance requirements limit their availability to major studios. This classic hardware, known for its distinctive sonic character, has become a benchmark for high-quality reverb.

This plug-in accurately captures the unique sound of three different EMT 140 plates installed at The Plant Studios in Sausalito, California. Each plate offers its own tonal qualities, providing users with a selection of authentic vintage reverbs. The interface is designed to mirror the original plate system components while offering modern controls tailored for digital audio workstations, enhancing workflow and creative flexibility.

Users can shape their sound with adjustable decay times, two-band equalization, predelay, width, and wet/dry mix controls, allowing for precise tailoring of the reverb effect. This plug-in brings the revered warmth and character of the EMT 140’s plate reverb into any production environment without the limitations of physical hardware, making it an essential tool for achieving classic ambience.
