non-linear, and highly interactive processes. Not only do these conditions
make sure that the
artificial reverb method is constantly updated, it also underlines the effect it has
as a tool of
artistic expression.
VariVerb - Algorithms
The algorithms in VariVerb Pro specialize in a
specific type of room creation that may be selected
from the list of "models" in the display:
 Room A: Small to medium-sized room,
dampening of the low frequencies, immediate
response, high density/diffusion.
 Room B: Room similar to A, less dampening,
slightly different reflection pattern, response is
slightly slower.
 Hall A: Larger hall, slower reverb buildup, less
density than the "rooms".
 Hall B: Similar to Hall A, but features later
response of the reflection, slightly "colder" sound,
and less diffusion.
 Retro room: Classic room effect in the style of
well-known hardware reverb devices from the
80s/90s. More artificial algorithms than the
previous methods. The vintage/retro character
takes center stage here, definitely an "effect"
sound.
 Retro hall: Type of creation similar to retro room, but a classic reverb effect
with the corresponding reflection pattern. Thick, cloud-like reverberation tail.
 Plate A: Classic reverb plate, high diffusion, quite "dark" and "heavy", slight
panorama effects.
 Plate B: Reverb plate similar to A but with lighter character, faster response,
more resonance, increased vintage character.
 NonLin gate: Non-linear reverb, no sustain, but abrupt end instead (classic
"gated" reverb effect).
 NonLin reverse: Reverb with reversed amplitude, sound impression played
such as "backwards".
 Spring A: Model of a reverb spiral featuring two linked spring systems, typical
echo effects and excitation noise.
 Spring B: Similar to spring A, but the vibration is more balanced.
