Its an unusual effect, but one that youd struggle to achieve using regular tools.īut its also a reverb morphing processor, which can seamlessly shift between reverbs with no glitching. One interesting technique demonstrated by the developers on the product website is taking advantage of the detune section to make reverbs tune up and down as a track plays. In any regular plugin, switching presets causes a jarring change, often even a gap in the sound. The idea really is to automate this, and in doing so, precisely control the sound. With glide time governed by the Glide control, clicking a new slot will cause the reverb to change smoothly from one type to another. In regular mode, clicking a slot (you can swap any presets in or out) causes that reverb to become active.Ĭlick on the comet area at the top however, and morphing gets activated. You can imagine them on electronic music and perhaps, used more sparingly, on orchestral tracks as well.īut the clever stuff happens when you start using the morphing slots.

In not trying to copy any physical space, the developers have made algorithms that sound like nothing else - they are lush, verdant and unique.

The design is slick and easy to understand, with the preset browser particularly accessible, using tags for easy searching. In the centre are large Size and Decay knobs as well as a dry wet section, and of course a bunch of presets. The core feature set is recognisable - in and out levels, predelay, diffuse and detune sliders, controls for hi and lo damping, and colour. In another product this might sound a slightly fanciful description, but reverbs really do aspire to this kind of thing, so its a fair claim. Instead, it says it is designed to create beautiful trails of sound. There are lots of very fine impulse response-based reverb processors on the market, so we arguably didnt need another one anyway.
