A lush stereo plate reverb audio plugin in VST3 format, built with JUCE.
- Dattorro 1997 plate reverb algorithm — rich, dense, natural-sounding plate decay
- Tuned Mode — adjust crossover and damping per frequency band
- Diffuse Input — blends diffused signal into the reverb tail
- Freeze — sustain the reverb infinitely
- Clear — reset the reverb tail instantly
- Dark/light panel themes switchable from the DAW
| Parameter | Range | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Pre-Delay | 0–200 ms | Delay before reverb onset |
| Decay | 0–100% | Reverb decay time |
| Low-Mid Xover | 20–2000 Hz | Crossover frequency between low/mid bands |
| Low Decay | 0–100% | Multiplier for low-frequency decay |
| Mid-Hi Xover | 200–20000 Hz | Crossover frequency between mid/hi bands |
| Hi Decay | 0–100% | Multiplier for high-frequency decay |
| Damping | 0–100% | High-frequency absorption in the tank |
| Modulation | 0–100% | Depth of internal modulation for movement |
| Mix | 0–100% | Wet/dry mix |
| Output | -24–+24 dB | Output gain |
