Recording - November 2011 - 39

In use, the TSAR-1 has become a favorite on drums and percussion, especially when you want a big woody-sounding rock’n’roll room. Using the high cut and setting the tone control to Dark also makes TSAR-1 a great and natural-sounding kick drum and floor tom extender. On vocals the TSAR-1 is extremely versatile. On a recent country session it offered a great vintage-Nashville plate sound, and since it does concrete so well, this is now my go-to reverb for emulating old echo chambers and the like.

Power Sonically this is a very powerful beast, but it takes power to make power... in this case, CPU power, and lots of it. In Cubase on my ADK-built 2.83 GHz quad-core PC with 4 GB of RAM, a single instance of TSAR-1 takes up 25% of my processing power; in today’s plug-in world that is a significant hit. Expect to do a lot of track rendering/freezing. The TSAR-1R, while simpler to drive, takes just as much power; it is intended to be a “light” version in simplicity only, not CPU hit. As such, the “R” version is more of a reverb for when you want a faster set-it-and-forget-it experience. Being a sound designer/reverb junkie, I stuck primarily to the main version. Conclusions Due to its power consumption, I tend to use TSAR-1 one instance at a time in sessions, usually in tandem with one or more of the other mentioned plug-ins. Bottom line, it holds its own, especially in rich sonic uniqueness. The TSAR-1 package is a deal at $180 street (the Lexicon Native Bundle is $1500 and the 224 requires UAD-2 hardware). If you are still stubbornly stuck on the hardware reverb train, or just want a new and amazing flavor of reverb for your sessions, check out TSAR-1. It will surprise you.
