The World's First Musical Reverb
Forget what you know about reverb. Temperance is in an entirely new category of spatial processing; one that responds to the language of music itself.
For the first time, reverb can be fine-tuned musically to suit your creative needs. Instead of battling unwanted frequencies or settling for a one-size-fits-all approach, you can design spaces that mirror your musical intent.
Temperance Lite is a free plug-in that introduces a revolutionary approach to reverb, allowing musicians and producers to shape ambience in new and musical ways. Unlike traditional algorithmic and convolution reverbs, Temperance exploits the power of today’s processors to model and control any space in ways never before possible. Temperance uses the power of this new approach to shape space in a musical way by operating on the 12-note chromatic scale, creating both well and ill-tempered ambiances.
Modal Reverb Technology
Imagine a room filled with thousands of tuning forks, each one a different size and tuned to a specific frequency across the audio range.
What if you were able to determine the loudness and decay rate of each tuning fork?
Temperance models reverberant spaces as collections of thousands of independent resonances, each one adjustable in real-time.
Features
- Temper Knob controls how much tuning (Tempering) is applied to the reverb, from emphasizing or de-emphasizing selected notes to highlighting the surrounding resonance.
- NoteScape displays the tuned and un-tuned components, visually mapping the musicality of the reverb.
- Range Sliders isolate specific frequency bands for precise control. Pre-Delay and Relative Tuning submenus to fine-tune your sound.
- 14 Factory Presets serve as starting points for your productions, including 5 Getting Started presets to show you the ropes.
