A system is proposed for automatically tuning the parameters of an algorithmic reverb plugin with the goal of matching the output of another reverb plugin, which can include convolution-based models. The system accepts two VST or VST3 type reverb plugins, and without prior knowledge of the implementation of either plugin, attempts to find a parametrization for the algorithmic reverb plugin that minimizes the difference between the measured impulse responses of both plugins.
