Subject:reproducing SF 4.5 reverb in SF 8

Can someone tell me exactly how I can reproduce in SF 8 the exact reverb that I find in SF 4.5 called "Bright Hall?" I don't believe any of SF 8's presets is exactly identical to SF 4.5's "Bright Hall"; so can you help me tweak SF 8 to reproduce that exacty? Thanks.

Look at all SF4.5 reverb parameters settings and set the same in SF8 manually.

I don't think the built-in presets have changed. We do however prefix the presets with [Sys] to give you some indication of whether the preset comes with the plug-in or was your own creation.

So [Sys] Bright Hall should be exactly the same as it was in 4.5.

SF 4.5 doesn't have any "parameters settings;" you just click the button next to the words "Bright Hall" and click OK. There is nothing to adjust; just a radial button. I have not found any factory preset in version 8 to be identical to 4.5's "Bright Hall." Version 8 has something called "Rich Hall", but that sounds pretty corny and fake; 4.5's "Bright Hall" sounded very authentic. I thought some of Sony's programmers could easily tell me how to adjust version 8's reverb to match 4.5's "Bright Hall's" internal settings.

This sounds like a very old version of ExpressFX. Is this Sound Forge "XP" 4.5?

There should be a *preset* named "[Sys] Bright Hall" that is probably what the one you're talking about was based on.

Yes, it's XP 4.5, and it's great! (If only it were directx capable, it'd be all anyone would want.) It's totally dependable to do what you expect it to do.
