16 high-end algorithms

SHIMMER-1

A complex shimmer that offers increasing feedback. The pitch can go from 1/4 semitone up to an octave creating many different customizable shifting voicings.

SHIMMER-2

Shimmer 2 differs from the first one because there is no build up in the feedback and the two different pitched voices can be set in parallel to create custom harmonizations.

HALL

This model recreates the ambience of a live concert hall with controlled decay and a reverb time range from 1 to 9 seconds to replicate from smaller venues up to larger clubs. With an advanced parameter set that features a 3-band decay trimmer, the sound of the hall can be highly tweaked to always find the perfect tail in which to place the instrument.

ROOM

This model adds the third dimension of a room to the direct sound in order to place it in a physical space and obtain a more natural sounding performance. Thanks to the 3-band decay trimmer any room can be recreated giving infinite possibilities. Its time range goes from 0.5 to 3 seconds offering a great option for a reverb that adds character without noticing the reverb itself.

CHAMBER

This model offers the typical chamber sound found in many professional recording studios and provides a highly reflected and bright tail that’s perfect for aggressive reverb tones. Its time range goes from 1 to 9 seconds like the hall model, but the chamber has way more character and vibe.

CHURCH

This model has the longest tail in order to reproduce the typical reverb sound found in churches. Its reverb time has a range from 8 to 20 seconds to replicate from the smallest chapel to the biggest cathedrals.

PLATE

This model can recreate different iconic plate reverbs. Its time has a range from 0.5 to 5 seconds and the flavor is highly customizable through custom parameters, which let you emulate different types of plates by emphasizing the decay of certain frequencies and dampening others.

SPRING

This is a customizable spring reverb model, which emulates the vintage spring modules typically installed on guitar amplifiers.

SWELL

This is a swell processor that can automatically create fantastic fading swell effects followed by a customizable reverb trail to create dreaming pads or string-like sounds.

GATE

This is a customizable gated reverb that cuts off the reverb trail as desired in order to add textured groove to your playing.

REVERSE

This model is perfect to create reverse delay trails that fade in while you are playing. The reverse envelope can be set to 3 different modes to better fit the part.

EARLY-REF

This model emulates the typical short reflections that can be heard in a small room or space. It’s fully customizable to bring it from a sort of traditional delay to a buzzing early reflection sound.

EXTREME

This is a combination of two processors in one model. One is a plate reverb that gets modulated by the second one, which is a vintage phaser to add extreme modulated tails.

ETHEREAL

This is a highly modulated plate that recreates moving airy trails and adds magic to your lines.

BLOOM

This reverb makes your simple lead parts bloom up and become very rich and noticeable. It is a swell like effect to give movement and vibe to your parts.

MAGNETIC

This is a spatial reverb that has an airy tone with an accentuated modulation effect, which at low rates creates an effect of space floating.
