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.
The Foundwaves interface, a real captured space, then a full creative chain on top.
Foundwaves is built to play what you capture. Smash Capture is our free iOS app, and its Room/Plate mode records straight into the folder Foundwaves reads from.


Real placesThe reverb is the room you actually stood in, not a library someone else recorded.
No file huntingCaptures sync through iCloud Drive into one Capture folder. Nothing to export or drag around.
Free to startSmash Capture costs nothing, so you can capture before you buy the plugin.
Load any Smash Capture room file and reshape it, IR size, reverse, attack, and decay, without leaving the character of the original space behind.
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.
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.
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.
Keep the reverb from washing out a mix, compress it, duck it under the dry signal, and control its stereo width independently.
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.
A draggable 5-band graphic EQ on the tail, no knobs, just click and drag the curve you want to hear.
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.
Foundwaves is in beta testing now, alongside Smash Capture, the free app that feeds it. $49, a one-time price, not a subscription. $5 from every purchase goes to BC Children's Hospital Foundation.
