SENSE OF SPACE

SPACEWAVES

Depth for a master that leaves the dry signal and the punch alone.

Spacewaves plugin interface

The Spacewaves interface, depth without touching the dry signal.

WHAT'S UNDER THE HOOD

Depth, without smearing the attack.

REVERB ENGINE

8-line double-precision Householder FDN

8 modulated delay lines in a lossless Householder feedback mix, each with its own nested diffusion allpass, a dense tail at ~9k zero-crossings/sec with no added loop energy.

PURELY ADDITIVE

The dry signal is never touched

Most reverbs colour your dry path even at a low mix, because the signal still runs through their filters and gain staging. This one adds a wet tail alongside the dry and leaves the dry alone. With DEPTH at 0 the plugin is genuinely out of the way: 0 differing samples over a real 64 second render, re-verified after every DSP change.

TRANSIENT DUCKING

Level-independent duck

A fast/slow envelope ratio ducks the wet tail up to ~10dB under transients, identically at -20dBFS or -6dBFS program level, recovering over ~300ms.

SPECTRAL MATCH

Tilt-matched tail

400Hz/4kHz detectors read the program's spectral tilt, and a matching 250Hz/3.5kHz shelf pair on the return keeps the tail reading as more of the same room, not an added color.

ZERO LATENCY

Linear engine, no oversampling

Nothing in the signal path is nonlinear, so there's no oversampler and no added latency, DEPTH=0 is exact passthrough.

MONO SAFETY

Fixed 160Hz high-passed send

The side send runs through a fixed, non-adjustable 160Hz high-pass, keeping bass 100% dry by construction.
