ReaVerb.PNG


Reaverb is a versatile reverb plug-in that utilizes Impulse responses.

You can download a variety of Impulse responses from Noisevault

Reaverb lets you do some processing on the impulses you add (choose Add --> File to add in an impulse file). there are a host of options within reaverb for processing impulses - all are found in the add drop down menu in Reaverb.

  • Echo generator - generates an echo - useful for "filling in the gaps" of an impulse or creating echo-decay weirdness
  • High and low pass filter - force the impulse not to work above or below a certain point (i.e. above 5khz or below 100hz)
  • Normalize - raise the gain of the impulse to 0dBFS
  • Reverse - nifty effect for vocals, guitar solos and song intros/outtros
  • Trim/Grain/Stretch - stretch the impulse (make it longer), add in some graininess, or trim the impulse (make it shorter).
  • File - use this to insert an impulse file. you can insert as many files as you want!

With Reaverb, you can add in each of the processors as many times as you want in a single instance! You also have the options of adding in pre-reverb and can mix the processed (wet) and original (dry) signals in to taste.

Controls

Common Controls

Move a fader to set a value or, to set a value precisely, type directly into the input box if it is not "greyed-out". Double Click a fader to return to its default value.

"Fine-tune" a value controlled by a fader by holding the Ctrl key while moving the fader.

Plugin Specific Controls

  • Wet - The amount of processed signal in the output.
  • Dry - The amount of unprocessed signal in the output.
  • Impulse Generation Add or remove an impulse generation source (types of which are above)
    • Add
    • Remove
  • Stereo width -- Controls how "marked" the stereo output is.
  • Volume The volume of the plugin.
  • Pan - Position in the stereo mix.
  • Pre-reverb - In milliseconds, controls how far the plug-in "looks ahead" in the audio stream
  • Impulse Generation Utilities
    • Generate test tone - ???
    • Deconvolve - ???
  • Performance
    • Max FFT - This changes CPU use. Lower FFT equals higher CPU use but more evenly spread out. It doesn't affect quality, just CPU use. You might be able to tweak this parameter to get better performance. See FFT Size
    • ZL - Zero Latency
