Requiem
Mix reverbs and huge spaces, in one.
A big reverb on a heavy mix usually means mud and a riff that disappears. Requiem gives you the space and keeps it out of the way of the playing.
SPACE for the mix.
MASSIVE for the moment.
Space
Plate, Room, Hall and Chamber for everyday mixing, plus a Gated reverb for that big 80s and metalcore snare.
Massive
Bloom builds slowly, Cloud smears into a wash, Abyss goes dark for up to a minute, and Echo feeds delay taps into the reverb.
One set of knobs
Decay, size, pre-delay (in ms or synced to your tempo), tone, damping, motion and width work the same in both engines.
Duck
The tail ducks under the playing and blooms in the gaps, so palm mutes and kicks stay tight. Hits duck deeper than held notes.
Clean
Takes the low-mid build-up out of the tail while the dry part is heavy there, so a giant space doesn't muddy drop-tuned guitars.
Swell, Freeze, Rise
SWELL fades the tail in on the tempo. FREEZE holds it. RISE lifts it over 1 to 8 bars, straight into the drop.
What we measured.
| Test | Result |
|---|---|
| Decay you set vs decay you get, every voicing | within 15% (most within 3%) |
| Metallic ringing, ours vs a plain comb reverb | 0.30 vs 0.89 |
| MIX at 0%: output vs input | bit-exact |
| Latency | none |
