FOUNDWAVES REVERB DESIGNER

A convolution reverb built on real captured spaces, rooms, plates, hallways, not sampled presets. Capture a space with Smash Capture, load it here, and shape it with shimmer, motion, and drive, analog-inspired coloration, plainly controlled.

WHAT'S INSIDE

Real spaces, then a full creative chain on top.

SPACE

Real impulse responses, fully shaped

Load any Smash Capture room file and reshape it, IR size, reverse, attack, and decay, without leaving the character of the original space behind.

MOTION

Morphs into a detuned twin

Slowly morphs the loaded IR into a subtly detuned twin of itself, keeping a captured room from ever sounding static, without turning it into an obvious modulation effect.

SHIMMER

Pitch-shifted feedback, dialed in

Feed the tail back into itself with pitch shifting for the ethereal, ambient-pad-style shimmer that a plain IR can't give you on its own.

COLOR

Drive and tone, the analog way

A saturation and tone stage on the wet path only, so the reverb tail can be pushed into something warmer without touching the dry signal.

DYNAMICS

Compression, ducking, and width on the tail

Keep the reverb from washing out a mix, compress it, duck it under the dry signal, and control its stereo width independently.

TRANSPARENCY

You can see what space you're in

Because every space starts as a real, physical capture, a quick creative grab or a calibrated Pro Mode measurement, you always know what you're reaching for, not an abstract preset name.

ROOM EQ

Deliberately knob-free, fully visual

A draggable 5-band graphic EQ on the tail, no knobs, just click and drag the curve you want to hear.

MIX MODE

Add or Blend, depending on the job

Add keeps the dry signal at always-unity for insert use; Blend crossfades the classic way for send use. One switch, the right behavior for how you're using it.
