Mod Sound Velvetverb v1.1.1 [WIN]
Modern algorithmic reverb
Features
- Four unique, flexible reverb modes – Velvet Room, Hall Effect, Plate Glass, and Dark Energy (described below)
- Far-reaching control sweeps, from natural room sounds, to swirling soundscapes, to warbling resonances, to otherworldly washes
- Larger-than-life stereo field impression, superwide responses to all input signals
- Smooth, lively detuning and chorusing
- Fine-grained control of reverb frequency response
- Reverb ducking to get out of the way of the input signal
- GPU-accelerated stereo field visualizer
- Built-in presets to get you started
Reverb Modes
Velvet Room
- The sound Velvetverb was created to make
- Maximally decorrelated signals in each ear
- Strong detuning modulation to break up resonances
- Flexible, can sound great on just about any signal
- Great for widening and livening up nairow, static signals like synths and electric guitars
Hall Effect
- Slower echo density buildup, like a concert hall
- Weaker detuning modulation, more like the real world
- Twice as many delay elements as Velvet Room
- Great for natural, organic sounds like pianos, stringed instruments, strong vocals
Plate Glass
- Near-instantaneous echo density buildup – short main delays and immediate early reflections
- Hard high-frequency rolloff
- Diffuse allpass-based early reflections
- Vintage-inspired sounds, but with the width and lively chorusing of Velvet Room
- Great on drums, distorted guitars, whole mixes
Dark Energy
- Unusual, experimental reverb, not based on our reality
- Absorbs the input signal and releases it back slowly, for an evolving tail
- “Size” parameter controls echo fade-in time
- Interacts heavily with the shelf controls – try extreme settings for very unnatural echoes
