GameVerb features specific algorithms invented by game programmers of the ‘90s, “painstakingly recreated in modern code” to harness the sound of a host of classic games. And for code-savvy producers – which there’s bound to be a few at the intersection of music and video games – there’s even the ability to enter “Geek Mode” to customise settings in greater detail.
Additionally, there’s a global capability to lower the sample rate or use the five-mode Bit Rate Reduction filter to further sculpt a vintage lo-fi sound.
“We make plugins that we want to use ourselves,” says Impact Soundworks CEO Andrew Aversa. “I love to compose video game music in the style of this era of gaming, and now I can finally get ‘that’ reverb sound for my own music.
“And just like with Super Audio Cart [retro game samples plugin, also by Impact Soundworks], we went above and beyond to make it as editable as possible, so for the mad scientist sound designers and true enthusiasts, you have every control you could possibly want.” 
GameVerb is available now for $49. Visit the Impact Soundworks store for more information.
