Waves just came out with a new reverb, Abbey Road Chambers (not the same as Abbey Road Reverb Plates), introductory sale price is $29. I had a listen to the demo video, sounds great but man, I have so many reverbs here already I can't really justify buying another one even though it is tempting at $29. Here is the link that talks about it: https://www.waves.com/plugins/abbey-road-chambers

One!  FWIW...I use one reverb for everything - the EMT 140 Plate Simulation that is one of the Nectar 2 modules. Early on reading about Nectar 2 I ran across an article on that sim and how the original EMT had been used as the sole reverb on many albums. It only weighed 600 pounds! So being an old guy who searches for simplicity in mixing I decided several years ago to try it as a sole ‘verb. I realize that for some of my applications another one likely would be better but I’m good with the results so far. But I do like Waves’ products. I have CLA Drums, Vocal Rider, Bass Rider and their multi-band compressor.

Makes sense to me, Bud. If you have something that you are comfortable with using and works well for you, no reason to change.
I use Vocal Rider here too BTW, great plugin!

I use only two different VST reverbs. One is Breverb, which has a lot of different reverbs included, and a spring reverb. Breverb = https://www.overloud.com/products/breverb-2PSP Springbox = http://www.pspaudioware.com/plugins/reverbs/psp_springbox1/
My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.

If I want a standalone reverb I'll almost always use the Waves Hybrid reverb, got it on sale for $29 a while back. This one: https://www.waves.com/plugins/h-reverb-hybrid-reverb

regarding the original topic question;
13
Exactly
.. at least that's what I have on this particular system <grin>
unless you count VSTs with multiple effects in them, then there's quite a few more (Ozone, channel strip type plugins, amp sims, etc)
I have my favorite reverbs for various different applications/instruments, so 1 or 2 wouldn't be fun here.

I like the reverb in Nectar 2 alot for vocals. I have seven or eight including it and the ones that come with Reaper. Honestly, I'm rather loathe get any more of them without really testing them out first - unless it's a freebie of course. For me the sound on a lot of reverbs doesn't live up to the sales hype and my personal taste - probably emphasis on personal taste.

I have 2 reverbs that I use regularly. The first is Reverb SOLO which is a free reverb that you can find here... https://reverb.com/software/effects/acon-digital/47-reverb-solo . I use this as an insert on vocals and overall mix if needed. Sometimes I will use it on a FX send. The second is the built in reverb with Cubase called Room Works. This one I almost always use on an FX send. I went away from it for a while before I learned how to effectively use FX sends but now I'm back to it, especially since I've been working on a bit of EDM and Electro Pop lately. I may have a few others buried in my arsenal of VST plugins but I don't use them. I'm always up for trying new FX out but when you got something that's working well for you why change?

There is a formula for this very subject; although it can be applied to many other things in life. Here it is... Sum(r+1)=n "r" is the number of reverbs you currently have. "n" indicates the number you need. So in conclusion, whatever number of reverbs you have, ad 1, and that will be the number you need. After the purchase of any reverb, use the equation again to get an accurate number. I like Bud's equation as well.

Yes, that is the exact same formula used for determining how many guitars one person needs

Wait.... is this a trick question?
All of them... of course.
However, if you're like me, I have a bunch but tend to use just one.....with different presets and tweeks of course.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Another freebie is Ambience. Not for everyone (a little complex but lots of options). The plugin developer worked with PGMusic developers to to make it stable in PG Products. (He had a bug that appeared in PT a few years back). http://magnus.smartelectronix.com/Comes in 32 or 64 bit versions and even has a Mac version.

As many reverbs as work for a person I suppose. So long as it's basically just the one in a project lest things sound as if they're in different rooms.
I only use ReaVerb BUT I have a bundle of files & convolutions to load into it. Mainly I use just the one, and lightly, on the full drum kit with touches here & there on solo instruments or a tiny bit on vocals.
The Abbey Road stuff sounds great and is amazingly cheap but I'm not bothered - I'll just get reverb drunk again and once off the wagon it'll be swamp textures to the moon & back.
Cheers

I mostly use Soundtoys' Little Plate if I need something fairly simple in the box, or I send tracks to my Eventide Space pedal. It was expensive, but is a spectacular sound design tool. I can send it a high hat and it'll output beautiful choir pads if needed. Absolutely unbelievable.
