Very rich sounding reverb, agree with Chris Gibson' s assessment of the plugin's "place" in the reverb world.

This is a beautiful sounding algorithmic reverb, exuding a gorgeous and animated sound that perfectly compliments my 'real space' convolution reverbs and fills a gap in sound space creation that I have been searching for for a long time...suffice to say the search is over.
The 'Mystical' bank alone should blow your mind with pleasure and possibility ;-)
