Why is Valhalla Supermassive Free?

Some people in our community have been asking why we gave ValhallaSupermassive away for free.  We thought about it a lot this week and combined our responses.  “We” are:   

Sean Costello, Sound & Code 

Sean is our core algorithm engineer, product designer and sound-obsessed DSP wizard with a luscious reverb beard.  In addition to making the Sound, Sean splits customer support with Don and is the voice of Valhalla.

Don Gunn, Sound & Support 

Don is Valhalla’s pro audio expert (recording/mixing engineer, producer & musician).  He works closely with Sean on product design, handles the majority of customer support, and gives us excellent advice. “What does Don think about that?” is a common question around here, as he is often the tiebreaker.

Kristin Farr Costello, Vision

I co-founded Valhalla with Sean back in the day, and haven’t been able to figure out what my job title is all these years.  Until last night!  We decided it’s Vision because I focus on philosophy, visual design, and making things happen for Valhalla.   And because Sound + Vision is a great description of what we strive to bring.  And because we love David Bowie so very much. 

OK, back to the topic at hand.  Here’s why we gave Supermassive away for free: 

It’s a hard time.

  • We are feeling it for everybody and we wanted to do something to help.   Since we’re not essential workers, this was the best thing we had to give.
  • Music is important, especially now, and it’s been hard to focus lately. We wanted to do something to make that a little easier.
  • Working on Supermassive helped us deal with our own anxiety and uncertainty.  It’s been good to have a big creative project to work on and keep us busy.  The week before we launched, Sean finished up the work after a lot of late nights.  I tried to get him to take a break and rest a bit.  He roamed around listlessly for a few days and said, “I feel like a shark.  A sad shark.  Got to keep swimming or I’ll sink to the bottom of the ocean.”   It’s probably best he’s already back at work on the next new thing.   
  • It’s been good for us to put down the news and think about space a lot.  Turns out space is the place!  
Note: This song has nothing to do with Supermassive. It’s just great.

Supermassive might be alive. 

 This may sound weird, but Supermassive has its own creative force.  Like a will into being or a kind of certainty about itself.  Here’s what we knew going into it: 

  • It wanted to exist.  
  • It wanted to be the unruly algorithms Sean discovered and saved along the way.  
  • It didn’t want to be controlled or shaped.  It wanted to stay wild and weird.
  • It didn’t want to be a commercial tool or marketing bait.  
  • It wanted to be given freely to anyone who wanted it.

We listen to – and for – creative flow a lot in Valhalla, so we made Supermassive to spec.  And today we are the proud, exhausted, and bewildered human parents of a giant space baby.

We like experimenting.   

As somebody once said, “the best way to predict your future is to create it.”   The old ways are breaking down, and this feels like a great time to take intuitive risks, let go of old patterns and try something new.  Putting our all into Supermassive and giving it freely to support creative exploration is an interesting experiment.  It’s the kind of world we want to live in.  And so we do! 

We appreciate you.   

If you downloaded Supermassive or bought any of our other stuff, thank you for being part of Valhalla.  We’re grateful for your support and the creative work you’re making.  Sending our best in these strange times.  We’re here with (and for) you.

    That´s exciting as Vintage Verb is the reverb I mostly use. It has a special quality and is light on CPU.
    Valhalla is wonderful company.
    On a different subject but one that contains echos from the past, Seán Ó Coisdealbha is the root name for the anglicised Sean Costello. The word Sean in the Irish language means old and is pronounced Shan as in Shantytown. In fact Valhalla´s chief Reverb programmer shares a name with another gifted individual, the great Conamara poet and dramatist, Johnny Chóil Mhaidhc.
    I´m looking forward to trying out Supermassive

  • I already sent an email but then saw this message board. I want to express my deep appreciation to all of the Valhalla team for such a generous and unexpected gesture in making this plug in available for free. As I have played it I have found it complements all my other Valhalla plugin ins. What especially blows me away is the 8 and 16 voice chorus settings that get me into the tri-stereo chorus sound I have been trying to recreate for ages. Very best wishes and peace from Albany Western Australia.

    P.P.S. My favorite feature on Supermassive is the CLEAR delay buffers button. Without that, I’m not sure I’d have my hearing anymore because of all the unruly, never-ending, ear-blasting sounds I’ve made.

Thanks so much for what you do, and keep making great things. -A

    Now I recently got your e-mail regarding the free “Supermassive” and while downloading it, I sat down to read and learn more about your company.
    Your comments, ideas, philosophy & general vibe only confirms, what I already felt, while using your plug-in … you guys ROCK !!!
    Thank so much for your hard work (also on this new free plug-in), dedication, love for MUSIC and great SOUNDing products, while keeping the surface simple and intuitive – BRAVO !!!

I discovered them only recently and I have tried only this one and the chorus, but I will dig more on the others.

    What a great message, and you seem like a wonderful company. I’m only quite new into digital audio recording (though I’ve played the guitar for a good 25 years now :0), so still finding my way with plug-ins etc. Supermassive is one of the first things I installed and I love it – it’s so versatile too, as well as all the weird stuff you can do with it, little bits on a vocal bus can make them sound lush and gorgeous. Just working out which other ones to buy now (definitely the vintage reverb one, but what else?!).

  • Supermassive is GREAT! Thanks for making it, thanks for releasing it for free! I’ve been eyeing up Valhalla products for a while as they seem to have a creative flexibility superiority compared with other effects plugins out there. When I found Supermassive I was on the hunt for a new taste of reverb and delay, and I found both in this one package (the free pitch shifting delay is pretty fun too). Tested Supermassive in FL Studio with my Bastl Softpop synth and it turned my weird oscillators into lush jungles 😀 Came back the next day, made an account here, and find myself very interested every plugin you guys make 😀

    Stay safe and keep your head up! Thanks for making the most beautiful and lovely plugins in my collection!

    Supermassive is, in my opinion, the best plug-in of 2020! Thank you so much for making it free!

    I want to thank you… I was so excited by Supermassive and FreqMod that I’ve bought the fantastic VintageVerb and Shimmer on Black Friday no-discount (who cares about discounts if the price is ridiculous compared to quality?)
    I’m a Linux user and I need powerful tools to make my own creations, of which I’m practically the only listener for God’s sake.
    Your tools work perfectly in wine and don’t put any special concerns on licensing. So I’m a happy customer. I will probably buy all the others when I will have money available, just because your tools are great.
    Now, if they will be available on Linux too, I’ll buy them again…
    Thank you again,
    Fabrizio

    I bought a new Valhalla plugin because of how great Supermassive is, and how crazy it is that you guys are giving it away for free.

    I have so many delays. Surely I didn’t need another one. But I bought Valhalla Delay because it seemed warranted. 2 great plugs for the price of one, pretty much. And I am so happy with it. What an awesome delay. What a cool thing that I had no idea I would like so much.

    Dear Valhalla crew, you rock! I noticed the other plugins where kind of jealous the moment I installed Supermassive. Must have been the awesomeness that came with it and the (deserved) amount of attention I’ve been giving it. Thanks a million for making this a FREE plugin!

    I’m super late to this. Just found this, near the end of a year of returning to recording as a way of walking through this season.
    But I wanted to add my “WOW, thanks, this is good, words aren’t sufficient, so I’ll try to do right by your generosity and make as beautiful of music as I can with your product and share it similarly freely.”
    May the good you all have shared, well, reverberate out and back to you. Peace!

    Downloaded Supermassive yesterday and have been glued to my studio chair all night. Pros: It’s… THE best reverb/delay/space/cosmic… THING ever. Period. Cons: You’ll loose a lot of sleep and end up with a parched mouth. Thank you!!!

    When i think reverb, when working in Ableton, I go for the internal reverb for a basic reverb sound. But if i want something to sound epic, Vangelis and beyond, I always think Valhalla. Its only ever Ableton reverb (for lazy convenience) or Valhalla and I have spent hundreds on many famous reverb plugins by Lexicon, Fabfilter, Softube, Sonnox, Eventide, Altiverb, Waves and more. That’s a lot of cash spent on reverb. Yet I always settle on Valhalla and Ableton always, I could have saved some serious money. Valhalla’s big reverbs don’t have that cheap metallic reverb sound that I’m not a fan of that many other reverbs seem to suffer from, Its just clean, big, professional
    and expensive sounding reverb with Valhalla. And with Supermassive, here’s an epic reverb for FREE. Could have saved even more money. Thanks team Valhalla.

    An aging average muso with time on my hands. Decided to get back to a bit of recording – not for the public just for me – and came upon your website. Free? Free! Not often you get something of value for free these post-Covid days so I want to thank you guys from the bottom of my heart for your amazing generosity and spirituality. Karma guys … Karma! Here’s heaps of good vibes coming back at ya! Dimitri from Australia. 🙂
