Vintage spring reverb with SSL control

SSL SpringVerb, part of the SSL ‘Verb’ collection featuring SpringVerb, PlateVerb, and GateVerb, brings the unmistakable vibe of classic spring reverb into your DAW, combining authentic vintage hardware character with modern SSL control. These three plug-ins each deliver distinct sonic textures: spring for retro bounce, plate for smooth studio polish, and gated for dramatic punch. Together, they give producers versatile tools to shape mood, space, and impact across any style of music.

Carefully modelled on the most legendary spring tanks ever built, SpringVerb gives you the authentic tone and texture behind countless classic recordings across rock, pop, electronic music, reggae/dub, and more - perfect for guitars, snares, vocals, keys, and synths.

Spring reverbs naturally emphasise the mid and high frequencies that can quickly take over a mix. SSL SpringVerb gives you precise control over this behaviour, with dedicated damping to tame problem areas before they build up, plus intelligent ducking to keep the effect sitting exactly where you want it. While classic hardware tanks are limited by their physical design, SpringVerb goes further, offering deep, musical parameter control that unlocks sonic shaping impossible on traditional units.

Whether you're adding subtle texture, vintage colour, or full-on dub(plate) pressure, SSL SpringVerb gives you the classic spring sound with deep creative flexibility.

Spring Type and Quantity

Choose between three distinct types of spring tanks and access a range of tonal characters and decay behaviours:

  • A – Famous Space-age echoes
  • B – One of Greatest classic rackmount spring tanks
  • C – The go-to choice for dub, used by King Tubby and Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry.

You can also choose between single, double and triple-springs. The more springs, the denser and more complex the reverb will become.




Spring Tank

At the heart of SSL SpringVerb is the interactive Spring Tank, a visual recreation of what is found on the vintage hardware, that reacts to your settings. The springs expand or contract with the Tension control, and their number changes with the Springs parameter, giving instant feedback as you shape the sound. For creative bursts, set the Strength knob and trigger the Boing button (or click the tank) to unleash a chaotic resonance.

Spring Tension and Stereo Width

You can change the reverbs character by adjusting the spring tension. Tightening the springs makes the sound travel faster and feel more controlled, while loosening them adds the classic “twanginess” of spring reverbs, with more noticeable bouncing echoes.

With the Width knob, you can recreate a 'vintage sound' by fully rotating the knob counter-clockwise, reducing the stereo image of the reverb to mono. On the other hand, by fully rotating the knob clockwise, you can expand the stereo image beyond 100% to push the reverb out to the sides of the stereo field.








Input Section

The Input Section consists of three controls:

  • Gain knob - adjusts the signal level entering SSL SpringVerb
  • Pre-Delay - helps to prevent signal masking by keeping the input "dry" before the reverb begins. It can also create a rhythmic slap-back effect.
  • Sync button - locks the Pre-Delay button to musical values tied to the host tempo.

Drive and Damp Knobs

The Drive section adds saturation to the input signal. Raising the Level knob increases saturation, with the LED indicating when it’s strong. Turning up the To Dry knob replaces the dry output with the saturated signal.

The Damping Knobs are used to remove certain frequency components from the reverb. Turning up the High knob will remove high frequencies from the reverb, which will make it sound darker, more lo-fi, and vintage. Turning up the Low knob will remove low frequencies from the reverb, useful if the sound is getting too muddy or boomy.


Output Section

The Output Section consists of three controls:

  • Mix knob - adjusts the balance between the dry signal (all the way counter-clockwise) vs. the wet/reverb signal (fully clockwise)
  • Lock button - prevent the knob from changing position when loading different presets
  • Gain knob - controls the total output of SSL SpringVerb
