Reverb Plugins

A collection of plugins that add space and atmosphere to your music. These effects can make your music sound like it’s being played in different environments, from intimate rooms to grand concert halls, enhancing your listening experience with natural ambience and depth.

Plugin List

• FDN Reverb - Feedback Delay Network reverb with advanced diffusion matrix
• RS Reverb - Creates natural room ambience and space

FDN Reverb

A sophisticated reverb effect based on Feedback Delay Network (FDN) architecture using a Hadamard diffusion matrix. This creates rich, complex reverberation with excellent density and natural decay characteristics, perfect for enhancing your music listening experience with immersive spatial effects.

Listening Experience Guide

• Natural Room Feel:
  • Creates the sensation of listening in real acoustic spaces
  • Adds depth and dimension to your music
  • Makes stereo recordings feel more spacious and alive
• Atmospheric Enhancement:
  • Transforms flat recordings into immersive experiences
  • Adds beautiful tail and sustain to musical notes
  • Creates a sense of being in the performance space
• Customizable Ambience:
  • Adjustable from intimate rooms to grand concert halls
  • Fine control over the character and color of the space
  • Gentle modulation adds natural movement and life

Parameters

• Reverb Time - How long the reverb effect lasts (0.20 to 10.00 s)
  • Short (0.2-1.0s): Quick, controlled decay for clarity
  • Medium (1.0-3.0s): Natural room-like reverberation
  • Long (3.0-10.0s): Expansive, atmospheric tails
• Density - Number of echo paths for complexity (4 to 8 lines)
  • 4 lines: Simpler, more defined individual echoes
  • 6 lines: Good balance of complexity and clarity
  • 8 lines: Maximum smoothness and density
• Pre Delay - Initial silence before reverb begins (0.0 to 100.0 ms)
  • 0-20ms: Immediate reverb, intimate feeling
  • 20-50ms: Natural sense of room distance
  • 50-100ms: Creates impression of larger spaces
• Base Delay - Foundation timing for the reverb network (10.0 to 60.0 ms)
  • Lower values: Tighter, more focused reverb character
  • Higher values: More spacious, open sound quality
  • Affects the fundamental timing relationships
• Delay Spread - How much delay times vary between lines (0.0 to 25.0 ms)
  • Implementation: Each delay line gets progressively longer using a power curve (0.8 exponent)
  • 0.0ms: All lines have same base timing (more regular patterns)
  • Higher values: More natural, irregular reflection patterns
  • Adds realistic variation found in real acoustic spaces
• HF Damp - How high frequencies fade over time (0.0 to 12.0 dB/s)
  • 0.0: No damping, bright sound throughout decay
  • 3.0-6.0: Natural air absorption simulation
  • 12.0: Heavy damping for warm, mellow character
• Low Cut - Removes low frequencies from reverb (20 to 500 Hz)
  • 20-50Hz: Full bass response in reverb
  • 100-200Hz: Controlled bass to avoid muddiness
  • 300-500Hz: Tight, clear low end
• Mod Depth - Amount of pitch modulation for chorus effect (0.0 to 10.0 cents)
  • 0.0: No modulation, pure static reverb
  • 2.0-5.0: Subtle movement that adds life and realism
  • 10.0: Noticeable chorus-like effect
• Mod Rate - Speed of the modulation (0.10 to 5.00 Hz)
  • 0.1-0.5Hz: Very slow, gentle movement
  • 1.0-2.0Hz: Natural-sounding variation
  • 3.0-5.0Hz: Fast, more obvious modulation
• Diffusion - How much the Hadamard matrix mixes signals (0 to 100%)
  • Implementation: Controls the amount of matrix mixing applied
  • 0%: Minimal mixing, more distinct echo patterns
  • 50%: Balanced diffusion for natural sound
  • 100%: Maximum mixing for smoothest density
• Wet Mix - Amount of reverb added to the sound (0 to 100%)
  • 10-30%: Subtle spatial enhancement
  • 30-60%: Noticeable reverb presence
  • 60-100%: Dominant reverb effect
• Dry Mix - Amount of original signal preserved (0 to 100%)
  • Usually kept at 100% for normal listening
  • Can be reduced for special atmospheric effects
• Stereo Width - How wide the reverb spreads in stereo (0 to 200%)
  • Implementation: 0% = mono, 100% = normal stereo, 200% = exaggerated width
  • 0%: Reverb appears in center (mono)
  • 100%: Natural stereo spread
  • 200%: Extra-wide stereo image
