Different Kinds of Reverb
If you're looking for inspiration on different kinds of reverb to implement later on, may I suggest checking out the algorithms that Tom Erbe used in the Erve-Verb by make noise. As far as I understand they are all based on simple delay taps and filters that feedback into themselves, so I imagine they would be light on processor power. He made some Max/MSP and PD versions of the patches and they sound amazing.

And, while probably processor heavy, implementing some kind of convolution reverb would be wild. Have a folder where you store impulse responses or use samples recorded directly with the Deluge as impulse response. That would be fun! Ha!

Please please please do make improvements to the reverb, and offer different kinds , spring would be great , maybe plate, etc. I find as I get more familiar with the unit I'm using it less and less as IMO it sounds unconvincing and cheap most of the time. As there are no individual output for tracks , i feel quality reverb is a must. Great job on the delay though ! I do love all the weirdness happening at low rates.
A "gated" reverb would be great. Something you could adjust the threshold so it would "slam shut" when the sound dropped below a certain level.
This is easily one of my biggest requests. Without having individual outs, I need some flexibility with the reverb that's available so I can set the proper ambience.
Yes why would I need to hookup a Strymon or RV-500 to a this nice machine ? BTW try to set SIZE>45 and WIDT < 50 and DAMP < 50 I get a pretty good results ... Somehow the WIDT=50 has strange artificial vibe to it.
On board convolution reverb would be incredibly cool.
That's part of the jack-of-all-trades issue.
Why would I want to plug in my Strymon or RV500? Because they are quality studio level FXs that cost a pretty penny that's why, each with their own unique magic. For me, with the deluge onboard FX you'll never please everyone and potentially a real rabbit-hole for the devs.
Haven't heard anything about the FX in Firmware 3.0, I hope they are keeping this and other tweaks up their sleeves. Live looping and USB host are huge and awesome, but the reverb does seem wanting. That said, I am a novice and maybe I should make use of the unique characteristics instead
I bought BigSky from Strymon and solved the problem itself
A spring reverb would be amazing!
+1 for convolution reverb with user-loadable impulses.
If convolution were implemented I'd dry hump Rohan's leg.
Encouraging?
Yess please a better reverb algorithm. in my opinion it's the weakest point of the fx section
And a per-clip reverb.
