Never thought I'd see the day. Looks pretty sweet, too.

The first and only thing I've seen from NAMM that I'll be buying (on the day of release)!

And good to see you’re still around! I just introduced my son to Assemblage 23 a few weeks ago!

Good to see they're coming up with new stuff, but not sure if I can't get the same or at least similar results using something like (free) Valhalla Supermassive.

They haven’t been teasing it but it’s been known for a few years they are working on something. It looks similar to the plugin (Ambient or Ambience) they showed off at a music technology seminar lecture thing a few years back but with a newer style of GUI and a waveform display.
Im excited for it but also for the possibility that the GUI could be a sign of long overdue UI development for quality and resizability.

The new GUI looks nice and I definitely hope (expect) that it’s resizable. I’m probably in the minority here, but I like the look of the current GUIs on the OG plugins, but would just like them to be resizable. That said, I won’t complain if they all get the Space Blender treatment or similar.theviirus wrote: Sat Jan 25, 2025 7:31 am Im excited for it but also for the possibility that the GUI could be a sign of long overdue UI development for quality and resizability.

Not really this is algorithmic and the way it morphs (and lack of feedback) is very interesting

Oh, I thought the waveform was an IR, with some algorithmic stuff added to it (like Reflect).
What is this trend with reverb plugins going so visual? You absolutely have to see the waveform, why?!

In this case it really makes sense because you can interact with it using the cursor to sculpt the reverb in realtime - very coolMedenka wrote: Sat Jan 25, 2025 9:09 pmOh, I thought the waveform was an IR, with some algorithmic stuff added to it (like Reflect).

I felt pretty certain that their next effect would be a bit more exotic, possibly a granular effect of some kind. This comes pretty close to that idea and I can already see the potential for use in ambient music or special effects. Looks nice too!
