Reverb Foundry has announced a new flagship reverb, Tai Chi, combining state-of-the-art DSP with a unique set of audio tools and techniques.
At the heart of Tai Chi is a Feedback Delay Network engine that ‘takes the art to an entirely new dimension’, creating an rich and luscious chorus apart from other reverbs on the market.
‘What really sets Tai Chi apart from the pack, are a highly imaginative and useful set of onboard sound design options that are fully integrated into the reverb itself,’ the company says. ‘These include dynamics processors, multi-band filters and fidelity tools. The onboard compressor and ducker can be set to control the late reverb while preserving the integrity of critical early reflections.’
Up to four bands of multi-band reverb decay time allow precise sonic sculpturing beyond the usual contouring controls. The bit-crushing and density controls offer the grit and dirt of vintage reverbs, while providing the option to apply signal degradation to different elements – such as the reflections or the tail – or the master EQ’s low/high roll-off and shelving filters.
Tai Chi Lite boasts the same sound engine as Tai Chi but in a more affordable package, that foregoes the surround, dynamics, multi-band and some of the fidelity tools. Tai Chi supports channel counts up to 7.1.2, while Tai Chi Lite is a stereo reverb processor.
Tai Chi is available now for US$199 in AU, VST 2, VST3 and AAX formats on Mac and PC. Tai Chi Lite is also available for US$99.
