Chances are they're based on similar algorithms anyway (esp. if they're halls), as there were only so many ways of doing digital reverb back in the day. It's probably not impossible to match them reasonably, especially if they all allow for tweaking individual parameters via SysEx.
Yeah, they are kind of similar sounding so it's no biggie. Originally I was going to use that old DigiTech rack unit for reverb, but the thing is so damn noisy (and not just the output signal -- the unit itself emits a REALLY annoying 50-cycle hum) I quickly gave up on it. Also, the mixer I'm using has only six channels (four mono, two stereo) so I had to put the AWE64 on the Tape In input, which doesn't have an FX send anyway.
The interesting thing is that almost all the reverbs in these cards actually sound pretty damn good. Especially the APS and Soundscape ones. Makes me wish there was some way of getting the damn FX out of the cards so I could use them for other stuff. I could feed a frequency sweep into them and create IR's of the reverb presets I guess...
